After a fair bit o' searchin' on these forums & a healthy amount o' deliberation, I chose Sam & Max: Chariots o' T' Dogs. Good choice?

What did ye choose? :)

    Excellent game, but it won't make any sense out of context. You chose the fourth chapter in an epic story, man.

    I went with the first episode of Wallace and Gromit. It's the only series I haven't gotten yet, so I thought I'd try one and, if I liked it, buy the whole set. :)

    I got the Great Cow Race, which means my Telltale Collection is complete ( except for CSI, which I don't count) so I'm ecsatic

    I'm holding onto my code since Those Who Know have said they're non-expiring. However, the store is listing all seasons as $19.95 this weekend, so I'm considering using my 50% treasure coupon in combination with that.

    Well i got the 4th episodes of Gromit! I love the graphics and all. Hope my selection was good. If its good maybe i'll buy the rest of the series!

    I'm thinking of getting the first episode of Bone, but there is a "CD upgrade" that is more expensive... I'd rather get the CD too but I'm not sure if I can with the code and pay the difference or something?

    Do I have to use my code today? Some people say they don't expire but I'm still worried they might be wrong...

    I was told that t' Sam & Max episodes were self contained n' that Tales was t' first bunch o' episodes that all joined together t' make one big fable. :confused:

    Yeah, but not really. They do link up.

    You're just gonna be confused. Go buy the season upgrade, Sam and max is pretty awesome. It's as good as monkey island, and I never thought I would say that.

    I didn't like it as much as MI, (didn't like hit the road as much as MI either). It is a chortle though.

    I've already got S&M Season 2 (I bought it while I was waiting for Siege), Series 1 already has a free game, so picking one of those would be pointless (since the season upgrade would be the same price).

    I don't fancy W&G. Looks very pretty but I've got the feeling it would annoy me.

    I got Bone Ep1. In the end. i've never heard of it, but that's not neccessarily a bad thing.

    Chapter 2 of Wallace and Grommit - The Last Resort.

    So far a cracking game.

    Got episode 1 of W&G as I pre-ordered ToMI, but I got episode 3 this time... Just because I heard good stuff about it.

    Though to be honest, I couldn't stand Wallace in episode 1.

    I got myself the first Wallace & Grommit. I played the trial on Xbox Live and enjoyed it, but I don't think I'd ever really buy the game. Perhaps playing through the whole thing will change my mind though.

    Thanks Telltale for the awesome present, you guys are great :)

    The second Bone game. The only Telltale adventure that I don't have yet. I think that the only Telltale game I don't have is the Poker game, and, frankly, I am not that interested in Poker, so I will wait for another coupon.

    Used the three coupons I had (photo competition + preorder + pirate day) to finally get the three remaining Strongbad episodes. Now the only thing that's left is Bone.

    I be choosing Wallace and Gromit episode 1. It's the only Telltale game I don't have (well, it and Bone) and it looked like a scurvy inducing right good time! Arrrr.

    Don't forget ye can get Sam & Max Season 1 episode 4 - Abe Lincoln Must Die for free without a coupon. That's the episode that first introduced me to Telltale games, and now I have them all!

    Those scurvy Telltale scallywags! Their strategy of givin' out freebies worked and now they have all me booty! Arrr.

    Arrrr, I be new to Telltale Games, n' I i be a little confused if someone could kindly help me out.

    Two quick questions...


    Could I of got me'self Texas Hold Em' instead of this Monkey Island game with this 'speak like a pirate day' free download? Arrrr, I like a good card game :(


    **Takes a swig of rum**

    Ar and yes, the other question now... Can I only play this so called Monkey Island game just for today? 'cause i don't understand why it's asking me if i want to pay for a full season...




    Arrr, me accent is turning a bit northern now and i am beginning to sound like a farmer, so i'll be on my way.

    I can't decide what to get.

    I hadn't played Sam and Max, but downloaded the free episode....and wasn't blown away by it.
    I thought it was a tad easy and short.

    Maybe I will download a different episode and have a second bash at it...see if it can change my mind :P

    Any suggestions?

    Strong Bad Episode 4.
    It doesn't really contribute to the story of the Season but is imho Telltales greatest Episode ever.
    But only if you like the humor on www.homestarrunner.com
