Pocket Gamer:
Serious technical issues remain unaddressed in the iPad version of Sam & Max Episode 1: The Penal Zone more than a month after its release.
Developer Telltale Games has acknowledged glitches in the game, yet no update addressing these flaws has gone live.
Rebecca Quintana of Vivid Gamer writes, "The world of video games is full of them, with Gears of War and Army of Two usually topping most game-related bromance lists. In celebration of Valentine’s Day, I’ve decided to create my own list–my personal favorite video game bromances. I also decided to avoid many of the “traditional” bromances on this list and go with some newer and less conventional ones you may not have thought about."

Maybe “husky” is a good way to put it, or “stout”. What I was really getting at is that I like the characters, the adventure gameplay, and the style of humor that can be found in the existing Sam & Max series of games. I might even own some paraphernalia, which makes me the target audience and then some for the series’ debut on the iPad".
TouchGen writes: "There are so many cool duos out there, and Sam & Max are among the quirkiest. The sensible canine Sam combined with the crazed rabbit Max are yet again tracking down peril to choke it out. This time the duo has to stop the intergalactic menace called Skunk’ape".
