Guess the title of the first season 2 episode!

edited December 2007 in Sam & Max
As the title says, let's try and guess the title of the first season two episode! :) Here are some possible(?) clues:
Bosco's bomb
Robot and the train
Mexican guy
Other stuff from the trailer and gameplay footage

My guess is Sam & Max Season 2:
Projectile Robot.

Yeeeahhh... I'm sure you can do better than me. :D

    It's hard since we don't know the plot, but I'm gonna try from my scattered tidbits of assimilated snapshots from the convention:
    The Bot, the Diner, and the President's head 2.0 must die!
    ...ok, so I have no clue. '-'

    Here's my uneducated guess:
    Sam & Max in The Not So Calm Before The Storm.

    I wouldn't have thought the
    robot
    would be in Ep2.1 (and so wouldn't be eponymous), simply because it seems like rather a big deal, and if we look at Season One, it begins very low-key and builds up into something epic. That way makes sense because if you grow too big too soon, there's nowhere to go for the rest of the episodes.

    But maybe I'm wrong and the
    robot
    is somehow shrugged off as something quite inconsequential, maybe its Ep2.1 appearance is just an early taste of things to come in later episodes, or maybe the writers have different ideas on how the season should build up!

    I wonder sometimes if anyone avoids looking at the spoilered text...

    Wow THAT IS SO AWESOME!!! Your originality astounds me...[/sarcasm] :rolleyes:

    I would have to say...

    Sam & Max:
    The good, the bad, and the Stinky's...

    *shrug* Its not as easy as it looks...but the problem is, as someone mentioned, we dont know what the plot is going to be (which can only be a good thing at this point) unlike the guys at telltale...

    'cause it's fun?

    if the giant robot really is involved my guess would be Sam and Max:
    Size DOES matter!

    but, maybe this thing - what was it called again? maimtron? - really it just a teaser and will be disposed of within the first five minutes of episode 1.

    Well, I did because my title referred to gameplay spoilers from the trailer/previews.

    Sam & Max: The good, the bad, and the Stinky's...

    Good one and it could fit...
    The Good - S&M
    The Bad - Mexican Guy, Puppet President
    and well Stinky's

    S&M: Season 2: Episode 1 - Loose Ends
    a) It has a lot of things that carried over from Season 1
    b) It can deal with several consequences from Episode 6's ending
    c) It can deal with *unrelated* things and start building up the season theme
    d) It implies that, if you tie those loose ends... you may see something
    e) Sounds "detectivy"

    Will Season 2 episodes even have titles? I thought I read that they were going to be referred to numerically - 201, 202, etc. Of course, it's not uncommon for actual TV shows to have episode titles, but I'm not sure how Telltale is handling it.

    I'm 99.9% sure they are just working titles. :)

    I think 201, 202, etc, are just production codes.

    EDIT: This post would have arrived 5 minutes earlier if it wasn't for my bad internet connection :(

    From my understanding, instead of Sam & Max: Season 2 - <insert title here>, it will be Sam & Max 201: <insert title here> (to avoid the colon overload). But that's just how I understood it.

    I see. Any of the TT guys want to clear this up?

    It's also going to be more discriminatory in knowing which episode 1 goes with which season. It'll be easy to tell for those who have played the games already but when you start having multiple season's worth of episode 1's in game databases, it'll get confusing. :p
  • edited September 2007
    Maybe Sam & Max will just have a name change for this season to clear things up? ;)

    You will probably hear episodes referred to as "Sam & Max Episode 202: Title blah blah blah" on the site fairly frequently, or just "Sam & Max episode 202" in shorthand. We realized that things are going to start doubling up pretty quick if the site is full of two or three "Episode One" "Episode Two" etc.

    We mentioned the switch from "Episode One" to "Episode 201" shorthand in the email to press so that when those guys go to add the games to their game databases, they start including them in a way that won't end up alphabetically sorting like:

    * Sam & Max Episode One: Culture Shock
    * Sam & Max Episode One: Mangled Foot Brigade
    * Sam & Max Episode Two: Situation: Comedy
    * Sam & Max Episode Two: Artful Nonsense Collander
    * Sam & Max Episode Three: The Mole, The Mob, etc etc

    That gets extremely confusing and has no real sense of the actual order the episodes were released. We'd rather they sorted alphabetically as 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 201, 202, 203... etc etc, so the casual browser could see the episodes listed in the proper order.

    *squints* Are they the real names? ;)

    Of course they're real. Why would I make up fake names for the purpose of an example?*

    * An examle I screwed up, apparently, since "Artful Nonsense Collander" should sort alhabetically above "Situation: Comedy."
