    Same as what I've seen on amazon

    So it was the fly-swater Max and not Max with a Bat?
  • edited August 2007
    Sorry, I thought the amazon one updated. It's the bat
  • edited August 2007
    Okay, so it's not a review, but I made a "So you'd like to" guide for the Freelance Police, based heavily on the information provided on the Summer of Sam & Max site as well as Wikipedia.

    Give me good ratings, please.

    Shows how people actually read what books are about before recommending them:

    Was that linked to my guide in the area where they list "related" guides other people have made? Because that's hillarious!:D
  • edited August 2007
    From your guide, scroll down until you see "More Listmania!" on the right...
    Hmm, imagine if someone were to take the fact that these guides are "related" as an indication of what the Sam & Max comics are about!:D

    Some of the names on that S&M list would make great alternitive titles to the sketchbook
    Sir! More Sir! the Joy of S&M
    S&M: The Last Taboo
    S&M 101: A Realistic Introduction

    lol

    It's too bad that those sketchbooks are listed on Amazon at $99!!!! Someone's being a massive ripoff artist.

    Yeah, that's been there for a while. I don't think anyone's stupid enough to buy it! :D

    Sketchbook, as in singular. "The Effigy Mound" isn't even on Amazon yet, and if you search for it, you get a bunch of books about national monuments in the northern Mississippi River area.

    You mean I could have gotten it cheaper?! &#$@~!

    Yeah, and I'm sure he didn't get the idea from anywhere on this site, especially not the store page or this sentence:
    "You'll be kicking yourself when it starts going for a zillion dollars on eBay!"
    Don't you just love sarcasm?
  • edited August 2007
    It's very naive of you all to assume that people browsing S&M products are stumbling on Sam and Max, in that order. I always knew there was something funny about these forums. ;)

    Like Bush's election and subsequent reelection.

    I don't think you quite catch my drift. I meant perhaps the 'also viewed' lists aren't due to S&M customers clicking Sam and Max, but rather the other way round.

    Actually, it's a 'similar products list.' Amazon makes the flawed logical leap because of the sketchbook's title (The Age of S&M: A Sam & Max Sketchbook).

    The $99 sketchbook's been on Amazon since before we started running out of Age of S&M sketchbooks and put up that notice, though. It's just been a ripoff scammer guy from day one, with no motivation on our part (sarcastic or no). :(

    Great reviews so far. :)

    Has anyone seen the game in a store? We keep going to Best Buy with the camera but it's not there yet.

    I saw it in Best Buy this past Saturday. I then tried unsuccessfully to get my cousin to buy it... maybe some day :)

    But hey, Emily, be glad you don't see it when you go into BB. That means it is selling faster than the PS3!

    Anything will sell faster than the PS3. Even Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing.

    Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing.
    Yeah, that was one awsome game :)

    Wow, I didn't know they still made games like that. I don't know what's more surprising: that it ranks 107 of 3,228 (probably higher is better, but even then...) or that someone actually published it.

    The reason it has such a bloomin' high ranking is because people want to check out the worst game ever made. :D

    There is that. I almost feel inclined to pirate it. Almost.

    I bought a copy of Sam & Max Season One at Fry's this weekend! The guy who checked my receipt on the way out the door said "hey, that's a good game!" as he saw it in my bag. Woo!

    Nice! Does this mean we're going to see pictures on the blog soon?

    No, he meant the other game in your bag. :p

    its not an english games shop like the evil GAME where you get looked down upon by the staff if you don't buy an fps or a driving game

    Frys is a monster electronics retailer actually, so there's a good chance you could be walking out with a game, a refrigerator, a pack of 23-ohm resistors, and an ipod.

    like currys or comet in the uk then

    Burn. Except that I only bought one game. So, no, no burn at all.

    I think you could only buy 75% of those things at circuit city though. It's rare to find a place that sells consumer electronics and electronic components. Radio shack only barely counts anymore.

    I had lived in Calfornia for about 5 years before I ever decided to go into Frys. It's a huge place. I was blown away by their PC Game selection (not just adventures but they had a large selection in comparison to other stores). Like Doug said, they have this whole section with.... things... little circuity-things on boards and things with wires and contraptions that I wouldn't know what to do with (as well as everything else he mentioned, if not more). :D
