i was not sarcastic. i was quite serious. i really want more threads like these because i want to know how a game comes together and where the difficult part of creating a game is.
i just wanted to point out my disappointment that the thread is over so soon.
Question: Is it hard to make new stories or easy for Sam & Max?
Adventure stories is not an easy thing, can I imagine.
The thing about Sam & Max that has been pointed out in the past is that they can be incerted into any random situation and it would work out just fine. They've been to the moon twice, commited suicide just to get kicked out of Heaven, visited the Greek Pantheon of Gods, traped for bigfoots, and knocked-off two presidents before that day was even over.
At this point, all I can say is that all they need to do is think of some off-the-wall situation and plop Sam & Max in it, along with their non-sensicle randomness.

Sorry if I missunderstood ya then.. no the thread is still open for discussion so go ahead.

Does every new story have to be just jokes and humor or is it okey with a serious plot in there also? Not that I am against jokes or humor in the game not at all, just thinking if Sam & Max needs a new way to expand their serious minds in these games.
Hope you don't see me negative to the traditional Sam & Max adventure humor and jokes stories. Cuz I am not against the traditional at all, just needed to write my point of view or my vision to evolve Sam & Max further.
How about Sam and Max: Tour de France? That game would be epic on so many levels. Imagine, the Freelance Police getting entangled in a web of intrigue surrounding international EPO trade, them climbing the legendary Mont Ventoux, encountering the spirit of Tom Simpson on their way up, them getting lost in the vast jungle of France, and culminating in a spectacular season finale involving the Eiffel tower. I'd pay 100 bucks to play that.
nice idea somehow!
i think serious games are nothing for sam and max
if you want serious themes in your adventures i suggest games like overclocked or moment of silence. quite serious, no comic graphic thats the serious adventure game branch
i want sam andmax to be less serious

I wonder if Telltale will give us adventure fans a chance to influence
to new stories in future Sam & Max adventures.
Wouldn't they be glad to have tip-offs and ideas to make Sam & Max
ever greater because their biggest support is their "FANS" right?
Whoa, I don't think I could imagine Sam and Max in a story with a serious tone. Well, maybe I could, but I couldn't see them being serious. That would be weird, man.

Well, actually, Sam killed Max and then learned the hard way not to shower with electrical appliances.
</nitpick>
i dont nknow how about sam and max take on different myths like odysseus or a journey to the egyptian underworld
I'd say, since this season has been all about various myths and legends, another season with mythological themes would be a bit of a stretch. I'd love to see more jokes about current events and everyday life; things like, you know, TV, politics, self improvement coaches, the internet - that sort of stuff!
JMM: Magic Eight Ball(tm), Reveal Season 3....
Magic Eight Ball(tm): Outlook hazy, try again
JMM: Wrong magic item, lets try a crystal ball...
Maybe the theme will be about Media/Entertaining
S3E1: Max was thrown out of office and some crooks stole known art pieces around the globe INCLUDING some tacky items from Sybil's and Stinky's
S3E2: Sam's banjo is missing, musical instruments are nowhere to be found, radio stations are starting to broadcast talk shows!. Find the banjo and end the reign of Myra! on Radio!
S3E3: Newscasts around the globe started to broadcast infomercials instead of news. Has the world gone mad? Find out on our next news report, by Sam & Max.
S3E4: Movies, DVDs, webisodes, were replaced by poor substitutes and are being shown everywhere. Popcorn prices plummet! Stop the madness.
S3E5: The world became dull and there is an evil force behind it. With no serious competition his shows are unrivaled, that is, until Sam & Max do something about...

Is that a veiled reference to season one? I'm feeling more slow than usual.

Well if you mean to be ironic or serious I can't say, but
my thread was meant to be serious.

Was just a thinking thing from my side...:o
Let's forget it!
Hey thanks for the blog tip Mel.
Really interesting reading!

Important Question: Where do you usually go for dinners?
I don't know either what will fit in Sam & Max's adventures.
Maybe is hard in this case to expand how far we want Sam & Max to go?
lol...:D

Yeah, you could start with them surrounded by the entire Bolivian army, and then do another flashback a la 203
Yes.
The Bolivian Navy on maneouvers in the South Pacific?
hehe....:D
Maybe they are a copy of Rambo then? Taking down the Bolivian army
themselfs with no support from anyone else. :rolleyes:
hmm don't know...
right or wrong path to choose to expand the series?
Hmm, Sam and Max in a CSI universe? The lawyers will LOVE it.
