Then there's Axel & Pixel. It follows the adventures of the title characters, an artist and his dog, as they journey through the hand-painted land of Dream World.

Both games will be released tomorrow. Sam & Max Beyond Time & Space will set you back 1600 Microsoft Points (£13.60 / €19.20), while Axel & Pixel is cheap at half the price.
