"I'm really excited creatively", says Purcell. 28 Nov, 2005 / Comments: 13

By Thrik


The lovable GameCloud has thrown up a mighty interview with everybody's favourite Steve Purcell, asking him about all manner of things related to recently-revived Sam & Max.

"Of course it was disappointing [for LucasArts to cancel Freelance Police]. It came as a big surprise but I never had the chance to react because the fans did it for me. The outrage and solidarity that they showed was an amazing thing to behold. I'd never want to cross those folks."

You see? At least somebody appreciates your efforts. To enjoy this and many more questions, be sure to read the entire feature.

    Yay. Distinct episodes with an uberstory thread weaving its way throughout!

    horray! Now we can properly name the "untitled sam and max" game in the games database, and add some story ideas.

    Do we know that's what the game was going to be called, though?

    and while you're at it, you could, maybe... I dunno.. add my site to the "Check out these sites about" for Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle, Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Ghoul Patrol... you know, if its not a bother.

    Those links are only for hosted sites, each hosted site has a set of games that they are associated with and the game database just displays those sites that are associated with the relevant game.

    Geeze, he couldn't even pretend that he'd like to see a Sam & Max Pixar movie made?

    I cringe at the possibilities.

    With Purcell at the helm? I'm doing things that would be considered obscene in public just at the thought of it.

    Pixar would have the ultimate say in all Sam & Max film situations, and I bet they'd turn into a kid's film.

    PIXAR is awesome.
  • itchythesamurai on 30 Nov, 2005, 21:45…
    Yeah, I like their stuff, but I just don't see them having the image to carry out a proper Sam & Max movie.

    Jake made us do all that stuff. I didn't even know about that Sam and Max thing. We can admit it now, right? Right...?

    Haha... "quiet you fool!"
