Sam & Max Season Two Unveiled

I hope that they return to the pre-order the season, get it on DVD at the end. It was such a great deal.

Can you get GameTap in the UK and/or will the game also be sold direct from TTG (or via Steam)to people in the UK at the same time as the GameTap release, or will we have to wait?

I looked at the GameTap support page and some limited version of it is available outside of US/Canada but it really isn't clear (a) which countries it is available in and (b) what the limitations mean. You can't buy a Gold account but what is a Gold account? Here's what it says on the support site:

* International users, outside of US and Canada, can play Free games in the Lite Player in solo mode. This does not require a TapID.
* To play games in the Deluxe Player or to participate in the community features (posting in forums, playing online Challenge games, IM in Deluxe, etc), you need to sign-up for a free TapID (free Green account).
* Users in any one of the 14 countries certified for Myst Online: Uru Live can register for a TapID (free Green account).
* Users with a TapID can play all of the free games in both the Lite and Deluxe Players.
* Gold memberships are not available outside the US and Canada. Yet.

BTW, when we call this trailer the "Cinematic Trailer," that's because it's just that. It's not visually representational at all of in-game anything. Check the screenshots for that. (Hint: It looks very similar to Season One, technically, with a richer color palette and a few tiny technical upgrades, but it's just a slight revision of the same rendering engine we used last time).

The trailer was put together by the art department after they discovered that they had a few spare weeks in between Season One and Season Two, and decided to show off a bit.

One of my favorite parts of the first season was Max becoming President of the U.S.A., especially that they didn't "reset to normal" at the end of the episode and he remained president through the end of the season! It was one of the few parts of the first season that was as good, and maybe better, than the gags in the comic series. You could tell that it was a turning point for the writers, as almost all of the jokes were funnier after that.

I hope that the U.S. military insignia on the robot at the end of the trailer was a reference to that....

I wonder if they combat Pancho Villa this time.

Haha, awesome!! I love that rabbit.

Awesome forgot all about this. Just ordered the DVD edition off their site. They offer to send you the Bonus DVD free if you've already purchased by-the-way. Thought that was really nice of them. You just need your order number.

Can't wait! Season One was great. Also I have S&M to thank for getting me turned on to gametap.

I really look forward to seeing where they take the series. The trailer looks like it will have plenty of promise.
