Telltale Games has announced that the freelance police will spread their downloadable reign of terror and justice to Xbox 360 on June 17 via Sam & Max Save the World.

Collecting the first season of Telltale's episodic adventure games, Sam & Max Save the World has been smartened up with widescreen, achievements and updated controls.

Not content with saving one former LucasArts adventure series, Telltale announced Tales of Monkey Island at E3 this year, continuing the praised piratical point-and-clicker. Unfortunately, the new Monkey Island games are only coming to PC and Wii at this time, though Xbox Live Arcade will soon receive a revamp of the original Monkey Island.

Sam & Max Save the World will run you a tidy 1600 Microsoft Points ($20).

Telltale's Sam & Max Coming to Xbox Live Arcade

The first two seasons of the Telltale-developed dog and rabbity-thing starring adventure series Sam & Max are heading to Xbox 360 as two downloadable full-season bundles, the company announced today.

The announcement follows the recent word that Telltale's next episodic adventure game series, Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, will arrive on Xbox Live Arcade and PC this spring. Telltale's Sam & Max titles debuted on PC in downloadable form.

The Xbox Live Arcade release of Sam & Max Season One will be known as Sam & Max Save the World, while Season Two will be dubbed Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space. The upcoming PC and Wii retail versions of season two will also sport the new name.

No further details, such as a release estimate or pricing information, were provided.
