Firing Squad has posted an interview with Dan Conners, Dave Grossman and Dave Bogan of Telltale Games in which they spoke a bit about the upcoming Sam & Max graphic adventure game.
There's nothing much new revealed in the article, other than a few tidbits about what we can expect from the plot of the first episode;
"In the first episode, Sam & Max’s neighborhood is mysteriously beset by former child stars committing unusual crimes, all seemingly connected to a new ocular fitness video. Our heroes do some investigating, some lunatic driving, indulge in a little gunplay and hit several people over the head, and eventually scrounge their way to the murky bottom of things. But we get the impression that this may only be the tip of the iceberg..." -Dave Grossman, Telltale Games
While this certainly sounds like something I could see Sam & Max getting caught up in, the poor experience I had when playing the Bone demos still weighs heavy on my mind. Please guys, don't screw this up - because if you do, it will not only kill the chances of graphic adventures returning to the market, but will give LucasArts the perfect opening to say "I told you so".
One other thing to note - Dan Connors states that no demo of the game will be made available prior to the games release. This of course leads to the question of whether one will be available at all, or if people will have to buy into the series to see if it's worth their time.
Check out the full Firing Squad interview here and keep your fingers crossed that Sam & Max doesn't disappoint.
