Telltale Games just slipped a note under our door to inform us that season one of Sam & Max, subtitled Save the World, is all finished up and coming to Xbox Live Arcade on June 17 for 1600 Microsoft Points (or $20 Earth Bucks). That's next Wednesday! (Thankfully, the spit-take shield for our TV should arrive on Monday.)
But what of season two, Beyond Time and Space? It's definitely headed to XBLA "in the coming months," according to the tellers of tales. That's good to know, seeing as nailing down something outside the bounds of space-time can be pretty tricky.

Is this the complete first season in one package? What's the price? Any Xbox exclusives? Why shouldn't I just buy it off of Steam?
WHY DO I ASK SO MANY QUESTIONS?

I'm your dad's brother alright... what?
I'm wondering the specifics as well, I'm hoping it's a complete package.

yes people this is the first 6 episodes, for 20 bones, with xbox achievements and allows hd resolution. I also believe it has slight gameplay tweaks, but I'll have to play it to be sure of that last factoid. BTW, it's the same price as it is on steam... and I believe the Wii version is about the same. So it's just the matter of "what do I want to play it on" case.

YES!
My PC can't run this, so I'm excited as all hell!

lol, wow. You are very unlucky to own a computer that slow since the minimum requirement is a 32MB videocard and 256MB of RAM.

Yeah it's the graphics card part, since I usually play on the Xbox, I never felt the need to upgrade it. My pc was designed for audio, not so much for games.
There has only been a rare couple of games where I felt I was left out a bit, but I've managed so far. Whenever I have a spare dollar, I usually spend it on audio gear or a new Xbox game, so I never got around to getting a better graphics card.

Can't wait! Even though I have it on the computer, I never played it (despite the fact that Hit the Road is my favorite game of all time). I just don't remember to play games I have on my computer.

Isn't Magic: The Gathering coming out next week as well? I'm looking forward to that more than Sam & Max tbh.

I bought the first episode of this free when I pre-ordered Monkey Island and loved it, but I already ordered the rest of it for the PC. This is one genre where I would much rather play it with a mouse.
