Last I heard this had been canned. Great news that it's back on.

"Last I heard this had been canned. Great news that it's back on."

It was canned. Lucasarts binned it because the public loathes adventures (sez them - bodes well for their Indy content). This is a new one from the blokies who did Bone.

The voices are crap. This is only going to make me want to play the original.

Max sounds sort of OK, but Sam is just...wrong.

I thought it sounded OK. Quite a clever trailer too... I'll probably be buying it for the humour alone.

I didn't really like the delivery of the lines, or the lines themselves. Hope the dialogue will be better in the finished product, though it is obviously not going to be at the level of the original. They should totally hire Tim Schafer to write this.

As someone who has played the original countless times (I even had it on 3.5" floppy disc before they re-released it with speech on CD), those voices sound a bit off.

If I remember correctly the LucasArts trailer for the new version (the one that got canned) had voices that sounded much more like the original (maybe even the same voice talent), so perhaps Telltale wasn't able to use the original guys.

According to the Telltale site, it was their choice not to go with the original game actors or the guys from the cartoons...

"Okay, so we didn't get those guys. But we're working to choose voice actors who we and Steve Purcell think are true to the characters. We'll make sure Sam & Max sound great long before they open their mouths on your dime."

Whether that's just spin, I dunno.

I quite liked their voices, especially Sam's.

Im not sure what it is, but something just doesn't look right. Maybe its because its all in 3D and part of me would prefer the good old 2D style instead, but hey, some form of Sam & Max is better than no Sam & Max.

Sigh...maybe when first person shooters go out of fashion, point n clickies will rise from the ashes.

Well, despite all the pessimism on this board, I think this looks great. My only worry is that you won't be able to buy it seperately, I don't want to have to get a Gametap subscription just for Sam & Max.

As someone who hasn't heard the original: I think it sounds pretty good.

Good to see they're back. Although I hope the actual finished game is funnier than that trailer.

I'm assuming, judging by everyone's enthusiasm, that the game will be a tad more amusing than the trailer was?

If it's half as good as the original then it'll still be twice as good as 99% of other games released!

Here's hoping we'll get to return to world's largest ball of twine!
