Yeah, I tried Lincoln Must Die but only found it chuckle-some in a few places. Although I was never a great Sam & Max fan in the first place.

Let me just say that people who weren’t impressed by Season 1 Sam and Max might still want to take a gander at Season 2. The last two episodes in particular blew my socks off. (Though, to balance things out, the second episode of season 2 is in my opinion the worst they’ve yet made.)

Though I guess if Abe Lincoln Must Die! didn’t sway you, maybe not.

Am I the only person here who thinks this whole Homestarrunner/Strongbad thing is a pile of non-sensical shit? Hell, Weebl & Bob made more sense, what with its pirate ninjas and wobbling egg men…

I hate to admit it, but I’m more excited about the eee than I am about the game, on this post. I just got mine (specifically for blogging) and love it. I wonder if this Strongbad game will run under linux?

I’d like to reply by saying how embarrassed I am that I’ve not heard of this!

As there’s probably not going to be an appropriate venue for the topic, I’d like to take this opportunity to ask John how he feels about the forthcoming Phoenix Wright adventure game that has you playing as Edgeworth and Gumshoe.

“When Strong Bad writes videogames, which he regularly does, they’re pixellated 2D references to the 80s, whether side-scrolling platform, vector-based shooters, or best of all, text adventures.”

I smell minigames! Hopefully they’ll be better than the ones in Sam & Max.

Ah, so this is Telltale’s Wii game.

The transfer to 3D doesn’t look too bad to my eyes, well at least thinking about how bad it could have been. I think I’ll at least sample the first episode of this anyway, despite being underwhelmed by the adventures of RabbitDog and BunnyMan.

Awesome. I can’t believe I’m actually going to be able to pay for a Videlectrix game in earth-dollars. The idea excites me rather a lot.
