Editorial Review:

Product Description:
It's a vile world out there. Get too complacent and all sorts of weirdos start coming out of the woodwork. Good thing Sam & Max are here to hose down the sleaze and keep some kind of peace. Violently, if possible. Who are these irreverent crime fighters? Sam's a six-foot tall canine shamus with a love of justice. Max is a hyperkinetic rabbity-thing with a taste for mayhem. Together, they're a team of freelance police officers, on a mission to take down a bizarre mind-control conspiracy. And they're bringing you along for the fun. All six episodes of the first season are here in one box to own and enjoy. Experience why the game's bizarre humor, crazy characters, vivid 3D graphics, and exciting gameplay make Sam & Max: Season One the funniest game in years.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Sam n Mac - freelance mediocrity
This game is kinda fun. And delivers reasonably good entertainment. Some of the jokes are funny. Some of the solutions to the puzzles are rewardingly bizzare. But something about the dialogue just rubs me the wrong way. It is kind of stiff. And it all just feels kind of forced and choppy. Nice to have something different to play though. A good value at $26 plenty of hours of entertainment trying to figure out which item is supposed to be used for what. Maybe when I'll get over the mario kart binge i've been on I'll come back to it and solve the rest of the episodes.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good fun!
I played "Sam and Max Hit the Road" on an old 386 about 15 years ago. When I saw this one, I wondered if it would live up to that experience. It did!

What a great game - It's a puzzle game, so probably not suitable for smaller kids, but my 10 and 13 year old kids love it, too!


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Revive these games on the Wii.
If you're even looking at this, you probably remember the heyday of LucasArts point-and-click adventures. So to that I say, "How appropriate; you fight like a cow."

Telltale Games has taken over the reigns of Sam & Max, which is great because LucasArts is trapped in the uninspired quagmire that is Star Wars. Monkey Island, Sam & Max, and Day of the Tentacle are some of the funniest and most original games ever to be produced and I'm just happy that Telltale was able to pry the cold, dead hand of LucasArts away from at least one of these franchises.

How did Telltale do? I think they certainly captured the flavor of the original game - the chaotic spirit of that masochistic lagomorph and the hilariously hyperbolic idioms that spout forth from the noir-inspired ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A great return that could use more substance
I'm not a big PC gamer so while I was happy to hear about the return of Sam & Max a couple years ago, I didn't get a chance to play their new series of gaming episodes. When I heard they were coming to the Wii, and I could control my dog and rabbit buddies from the comfort of my couch, I jumped all over it. I've had the game for a couple days and have already completed three of the episodes. Here are my thoughts so far. The comedy is surprisingly witty, with lots of references to pop culture (When discussing how they should go about killing somebody, Max suggests they watch Michael Bay movies). The camaraderie between Sam and Max really shines through, and the characters never get to the point of being annoying (with the possible exception of the Soda Poppers, although I think that was meant ...
