Sam & Max 4 details

Kill the president in March.

We've always wanted to kill Abe Lincoln, which is why we're grinning like drunken park-bench inhabitants this morning at news that Sam & Max Episode 4 will be released on 8th March.

In a similar deal to previous instalments, the game will go live on GameTap first (22nd March), then become available from the Telltale Store for US$ 8.95 - about four and a half potatoes in real money.

Sam & Max Episode 4: Abe Lincoln Must Die once again rejoins detective dog and rampant rabbit as they ship off to Washington to take care of a doolally president. It's down to you to sort the old bean out, whilst dealing with uprising powers intent on exploiting the man's weakness.

There will eventually be six titles in the series, with the first three already available. We've thoroughly enjoyed them here at Eurogamer, and you can read our most recent review elsewhere on the site.
