This is a preannouncement of a preorder: Limited Run Games is going to be taking orders on a Sam and Max slipcase in about nine days. Or whatever the countdown says by the time you click over to it.
In a case of Japanese-style blurring, the slipcase lists the unconfirmed Beyond Time and Space and The Devil's Playhouse. I wonder what we're supposed to pretend is meant to fit in that big slipcase. Could it be...a banana?
So we're preannouncing that the other two Sam and Max games are releasing at the announcement of the Sam and Max slipcase preorder that goes on sale in nine days.
Marketing!
All these timely announcements would prompt me to tell you to go over to our mortal enemies good friends over at SamAndMax.co.uk for speedier Sam and Max updates, since they announced the preannouncement two days ago, but I think in this case the preannouncement is a bit, uh, premature.

One thing I'm curious about is if there'll be a PC version of this slipcover or maybe something else planned.
From the renderings made for the PC Collector's Edition it's not even clear, what type of case it comes in. It's just a square with the artwork on it. It could just as well be just a cardboard pocket. I guess a slipcase might be justified if it's actual jewel cases.
