25th Anniversary?

edited March 2013 in Sam & Max
"Monkeys Violating the Heavenly Temple" was released in 1987. Next year the Freelance Police will be turning 25.

Some kind of celebration is order. Sadly, I think we already know Telltale's schedule for the next two years, and Steve is still pretty busy over at Pixar.

Something needs to be done.

    Seriously, though, I'm all for something in celebration.

    I would be oh so happy if lucasarts released a HD version of hit the road.
    I'm pretty sure TTG will give away some Sam and max episodes to celebrate.
    But I would be beyond happy if the season one case file was back in the store.. Add to that a season three case file and I would literally shed tears of joy.

    I pictured the season 3 case-file to be The devil's toybox including all the toys of power (even the nutri specs!!!) and each of the toys would be able to have some sort of bells and whistle to them. It was great, but then I woke up... Or was it, i stopped looking into the future vision. Hmm...

    Basically everything that's been said I want.

    WAIT... you guys are forgetting something really important... another 25th anniversary...

    like the day of my birth, maybe?

    In all seriousness, why don't we send Steve Purcell some "birthday cards" to Sam and Max? If Telltale or The Almighty Purcell doesn't do anything cool, heck, I'LL run a contest of some sort. With prizes, of course.

    Let's all get together and have a huge game of Fizzball on the roof of some building that's suitably tall and dangerous. I vote St Paul's Cathedral.

    This is a pretty neat idea.

    i say the HD edition is a good choose, and the season three files. but maybe a limited re-launch of the comics?

    Nah man. Fizzball's best played on the Spire in Dublin:

    So... A collection of people playing Fizzball around the world for the 25th Anniversary? Sounds good to me!

    This would change my life, I still search for these once a month to see if anyone has them for less than a hundred.

    ...I was thinking all of us Sam and Max fans should do something together... like, come up with the ultimate fan project to honor our beloved suit-wearing dog and non-suit-wearing lagomorph!

    (Which will hopefully more than make up for us not getting anything Sam-and-Max-related from Telltale this year, so far at least.)

    Any suggestions for how to make 2012 a year to remember for Sam and Max fans (in an awesome way, of course) will be welcome here!

    I have ordered a copy of Sam and Max: Surfin' The Highway from Telltale's store... and once I have read every single word and understood every single storyline in that magnificent tome, I can draw inspiration from the book and come up with a memorable script for a potential motion comic to mark this occasion! However, that book would have to arrive at my house first before I can read from it (what is taking so long anyway?).

    What are your ideas?

    actally we are getting sam and max season 2 for ps3 and ipad so i guess thats the sam and max thing we get this year

    Maybe I should have rephrased that to say "some new Sam and Max game, cartoon, or other project this year".
  • edited October 2011
    well i guess it would have been a idea XD
  • edited October 2011
    Wow, Sam & Max are as old as I am, I feel a closer bond with them than ever. You know what would really make Sam & Max's 25th anniversary, as well as my own 25th birthday, another landmark achievement, really special? Sam & Max Season 4 :cool:

    Just putting it out there ;)

    I've got the perfect place for a game of fizzball:

    The Burj Al Arab Tower.

    I will go beyond the happy, if a case file of the season .. added to the file stored in a season three cases, I would like to literally shed tears of joy.

    While TellTale edition reprints of The Age of S&M and The Effigy Mound would be awesome for the 25th Anniversary, it seems more likely that if anything is done to commemorate it, it'll be something more along like the lines of a Special Edition Box Set. I could see something like it including all three seasons, and then another bonus DVD filled with lots of extras. Though that'd kind of suck for me then, 'cause then I'd have to buy all three seasons again for the third time, ahah...

    Though honestly I'll be happy if it just gets acknowledged at all, even if it's something just as simple as Mr. Purcell draws a short new comic to celebrate. I do wanna buy more merchandise, and for more merchandise to exist for that matter, so I'm kind of hoping we may get some new items in the store for the anniversary too.

    A new special stand-alone episode, perhaps even an adaptation of one of the original comic storylines would be pretty neat.

    How about a new Sam and Max shirt? The Max Imp one is nice and all, but it doesn't exactly scream Sam and Max: Freelance Police.
  • edited January 2012
    I agree and beg of telltale to make new t-shirts.
  • edited January 2012
    No offence to the Telltale folks who put the hard work into it, but I sure hope the iOS release of season 2 wasn't the S&M news Dan was hush about.
