Telltale commited to their promise, Next titles of Sam & Max revealed

"Situation: Comedy” takes Sam & Max into the daunting world of broadcast television and the even more daunting talons of talk show host Myra Stump. Telltale is on track for delivering the remaining four episodes of Sam & Max: Season 1 each month through this spring.
Each Sam & Max episode will debut exclusively on GameTap, with Sam & Max Episode 3 “The Mole, the Mob and the Meatball” coming next on January 25. On February 8, fifteen days after the GameTap premiere, this episode becomes available for purchase from http://www.telltalegames.com/. Sam & Max Episode 4, titled “Abe Lincoln Must Die!” and Sam & Max Episode 5 “Reality 2.0” will begin distribution in the following months. While each installment features a self-contained story, the episodes also reveal clues about an insidious foe that will challenge the crimefighting duo as never before in a truly out-of-this world season finale. The title of the season’s epic concluding episode will be revealed in the coming months.

The first Sam & Max episode has received high praise from reviewers and fans alike, singled out as one of the best – and funniest – games of the year by sources ranging from the New York Times, Yahoo and Wired to IGN and GameSpot. 1UP.com calls Sam & Max “gaming’s first sitcom” and says it’s arguably the first series to merit the term “episodic.”

“Situation: Comedy” sells for $8.95 individually, or for $34.95 as part of the Season 1 collection. For those who have already purchased a single episode of Sam & Max and now wish to get the full season package, Telltale has created an upgrade path. Customers can simply pay the difference between the $8.95 single episode price and the $34.95 full season price in order to get all six episodes of the series as they become available.
The review for the second episode will be up soon!
