The Sam & Max Holiday Special

TelltaleGames

As if there weren't already enough Christmas specials falling all over themselves this time of year, here's another one for you: an original machinima presentation adapted from Ice Station Santa (and a few other places -- can you spot them?!) and lovingly crafted by a small, tireless team who made the mistake of saying "Sure" when asked if they could condense a full game into an easily digestible video a few weeks before Christmas. Now that's what I call holiday spirit.



For today, it's only available at Game Trailers - go check it out! I'll post an update tomorrow with additional links. UPDATE: It's now up at the official Christmas special site!



One of the biggest challenges of releasing games online is that it's sometimes hard to reach an audience outside the bubble of people who pay attention to what's happening with online. It's a shame, because there are so many people out there who don't realize yet how much they would love the Sam & Max games.



We're hoping that this Christmas special will reach some of those people... now we just need you to help it by showing it to everyone you can think of who might enjoy it. (I'll be sending an email home to Mom, myself!)



SPOILER ALERT: If you have NOT played Ice Station Santa yet, this video will spoil some of the puzzles and cutscenes for you. Consider yourself warned.
