Steam weekend sale puts Sam and Max Season 1 at $14.99

by John Callaham Nov 21st 2008 @ 9:00PM

Valve is usually pretty generous about the games it puts in its regular weekend sale on its Steam service and this weekend's deal is no exception. For the next few days, the entire first six episode season of Telltale Games' Sam and Max adventure series (based on the Steve Purcell's comic book series) has a special price.

Folks who haven't had the pleasure of trying out this terrific (and funny) series can get all six episodes for just $14.99 via Steam this weekend. Individually each episode is $8.99 each and the regular package price for all six chapters is $29.99 so there is savings all around in this case.

Review: Strong Bad Episode 4: Dangeresque 3

by David Craddock Nov 17th 2008 @ 1:00PM

Forget The Dark Knight, Live Free and Die Hard, or Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull -- for "SBemail" devotees, no film has been more anticipated than Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective. The oft-alluded-to sequel stands as a testament to the adage of "good things come to those who wait," as Dangeresque 3 is not only everything fans of the first two Dangeresque entries have wanted, but the best installment of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People yet.

by John Callaham Nov 12th 2008 @ 1:00PM

Telltale Games continues to crank out the chapters of their Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People series. This month we are up to episode 4 of the five part series and Telltale has released the first screenshots from the chapter, which is titled Dangeresque 3.

Fans of the Homestarrunner.com web site will recognize the name and Telltale has already launched a promo web site to tease us more about Dangeresque 3 which "places you inside the film in the role of the title character". In the meantime check out the screenshots before the fourth chapter of Strong Bad is released for the PC on Nov. 17 for the regular price of $8.95.

Review: Strong Bad Episode 3: Baddest of the Bands

by David Craddock Oct 27th 2008 @ 9:00AM

Any Xbox 360 owners who have experienced the inevitable three red lights can sympathize with Strong Bad's plight at the beginning of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Episode 3: Baddest of the Bands. After spending a few minutes with his Fun Machine in the intro cinematic, the console glitches and dies a painful death. Your first task is to take the Fun Machine to Bubs for a repair, but the versatile vendor informs you that you'll need a "sack of cash" in order to pay for the repairs. Thus begins Strong Bad's quest to arrange a battle of the bands requiring a stiff entry fee, and then to sabotage said bands so that he's declared the winner.

The result of your quest is a solid entry in the series, but Baddest of the Bands suffers from adventure genre-related shortcomings that prevent it from being as enjoyable as the first two installments, especially the second.
