There had been indications that Sam & Max Season 1 and Season 2 would be coming to Xbox Live Arcade - Telltale Games has officially announced that the episodic series would be hitting the Xbox 360's online game service: "A few weeks ago Telltale announced that we're expanding our offerings to Xbox Live Arcade with our upcoming episodic series, Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures. Today we're following up with the news that both seasons of our award-winning Sam & Max game series will also be appearing on Xbox Live Arcade."
DSOGaming writes: "Steam has some really interesting weekend deals. All seasons of the Sam & Max series are 66% off during the Weekend Deal. Players can save even more when they purchase the Sam & Max Complete Pack. On the other hand, all Deus Ex titles come with a 75% off until Monday 10am Pacific Time, so be sure to act fast."
Deus Ex HR...one of the best games I've played!
I feel like throwing more money towards them!
DHGF: These days I limit myself to a total of twenty physical copies of games per system. Yet for the past two console generations, I’ve have a hard time finding enough games to reach my maximum of twenty per system. That’s where you, the reader come in. With each column, I’ll give you my list of games I’ve found worth keeping along with a list of games I’ve reviewed for the system. Then begins what I hope to be an in-depth dialogue with multiple readers. You can name games you think I’d like that might make my permanent collection. You might suggest losing Game A in my collection for Game B that I haven’t played as well. It gives you a chance to say what games you would keep if you had to pare down your collection. It lets you get a better look at my preferences and tastes. Most of all, lets you recommend things to me instead of the other way around. After nine years of me reviewing hundreds of games, this might be a bit of fresh air for all of us. Let’s see what happens.
The only game on Wii that worth anything to my family is Wii Sports Resort and that's because my wife and boys love frisbee golf. If it wasn't for that, I doubt we'd turn on the Wii, honestly.
