"complete with improved gameplay and HD visuals. "
Improved how? And how HD can it get? The originals run at any resolution you want. |

These old style point 'n' click adventure games are a favourite genre of mine so it's great to see them coming to the consoles: Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, Sam & Max, Tales of Monkey Island... I'm a happy bunny! Also we need now is a port of Zak McKraken & the Alien Mindbenders and Grim Fandango and I'll be doing bunny hops! :)

That's a pretty good price for all six eps.
Got them all on PC, mind - still need to get round to them, playing through the first S&M with the missus (oo-er) as a refresher. |

I almost hope they've just left them with a cursor that you move around with the joypad. Horrible as that is, it's at least better than the awful Wallace & Gromit control scheme. I'm not even sure why W&G works as badly as it does. The console versions of stuff like Syberia and Still Life had a similar scheme but that worked fine (and they were originally designed for a cursor, so you'd expect them not to work as well as a game designed from the start to work with a pad).

Would be better if they released this in episodic fashion as well the full season. I mean, isn't that supposed to be the point? 300 MSP per episode would have worked for me. Maybe even 400 MSP. Having said that, I expect I'll get the lot anyway though.

I've got to say, as an enormous fan of the originals (and pretty much all of Lucasarts point and click adventures) I didn't enjoy this on the PC much. Bit bland, bit empty and not nearly as funny as the original.

I have played the free episode (S1 Ep4?) that was available on Steam.
It was not funny. That remains my only real memory of it. Painfully unfunny in fact. |
