Sam & Max: There's still hope!

Kombatant · Aug 2, 2005, 02:17 PM

Here's what 1up.com reports:

Old school, point 'n click adventure fans blew a gasket when LucasArts decided their time and money was better spent on games not Sam & Max sequels. I'll have to cope with agreeing to disagree, but apparently not all hope is lost! Sam & Max creator Steve Purcell recently chatted with Gamasutra about what he's up to now. Besides working at Pixar and gathering material for his website Spudvision.com, Purcell dropped a bombshell and said he'd like to get back into games.
"The [Sam & Max] license is back in my hands now so we'll see what happens in the near future."

If there ever was a revelation deserving of a holy crap, this is it. Someone feel free to put the Sam & Max animated cartoons on DVD, too, please!

Please please let it be so

Good news! I wish they hadn't canceled Full Throttle 2. I would have loved to see that or Grim Fandango 2.

Wow I found some copies of the sam and max / day of the tentacle cd thingy on ebay from some uk sellers. Will it work with US players? Does cd have protection like that?
