GameSpy writes: "One of the most appealing, though subtle, aspects of the new episodic adventures of Sam & Max has been the brilliant satirical jabs the series pokes at modern life in the Western world. While each episode in both seasons has had a self-contained target (Such as the Internet in Episode Five of Season One or Christmas in Episode One of Season Two), they also work together to create an overarching theme that isn't always clear until the last episode.
That seemed to fall by the wayside a bit in Season Two, Episode Four (Chariot of the Dogs) where an otherwise hilarious script seemed content to go without much social commentary. Fortunately, that's not the case in What's New, Beelzebub?, the surreally brilliant Season Two finale that pulls all of this season's thematic threads and plot points together into an eminently satisfying conclusion."
Pros:
-Brilliant script
-Great puzzles
-Great art design
-Good use of recurring characters
-Thematic elements
Cons:
-Confusing for players who haven't played earlier episodes
Diehard GameFAN: Anyway, I did manage to finish off two games out of my backlog. The first was Marvel Super Hero Squad: Comic Combat and the other was Sam & Max Season 2: Beyond Time and Space. Technically that makes this six games as there are five episodes of Beyond Time & Space, but we’re going to cover the entire season as one game.
Those of you who watch the credits on Sam & Max episodes will be familiar with the name of Joey Camen. The talented voice actor can be recognised in the games as the voice of Bosco and the Two-Teeth family, and has lent his voice to many different games and shows throughout the years.
Joey was kind enough to offer up his time to answer some questions in an exclusive interview for samandmax.co.uk
From Gamertell:
"Telltale Inc. today (February 11, 2010) confirmed during the Macworld 2010 expo that it will, indeed, be releasing games for Mac.
Even better, the releases begin today (February 11, 2010) with Tales of Monkey Island."
Games can also vote on the next Telltale series style game to be release in March for Mac.
