Sam & Max bask in critical praise 21 May, 2007 / Comments: 7
Even though it's concluded, the first season of Sam & Max just can't stop getting attention. Take for example an article about episodic gaming by The Hollywood Reporter which cites Sam & Max as really the only series to get the model right. There's also this blog writeup which takes a look back at the season as a whole with admiration. And finally Yahoo! Games sits down with Brendan Ferguson to discuss the highs and lows of the season.
Sometime you might also want to check out the Telltale Games web site, which is where I got all of these links from.
Controlling the pointer with a thumbstick & pixel hunting on a TV may be a different matter though...
