Its not bad that Sam & Max is waiting, with the looks on how Monkey Island is, more moving just not talking, but action, more detail, im pretty sure we can expect all this and more in Sam & Max Season 3
They are in the early stages of designing Sam & Max Season 3.. I was just thinking with all the momentum monkey island has..if that finishes in november, it would be great if episode 1 of s&m s3 came out in december, so it followed on right after ToMI. I don't know if that gives them enough time though.
I'd imagine we'd start to hear more stuff about season 3 around the time the 4th episode of Tales is being released (around October I guess) and I wouldn't be surprised to see the first episode released in December but probably more likely early 2010.
From what I can tell, they had at most half a year before release to work on Monkey Island. With five episodes for Tales, I could see episode 1 of Sam and Max: Season Three releasing at the tail end of that or right afterwords.
I thought I saw Jake post somewhere in all the Monkey Island discussion in not-really veiled terms that the reason Jared wasn't doing music for ToMI was because he was busy scoring up Season 3.
Ah yes, only in the Private Pirates forum, here it is though it's just saying he'll be doing it as it turns out.
I'm not too worried since TOMI is keeping me busy, but I'm sure we most definetly won't see it til the end of Wallace & Gromit..which, I'm sorry but I don't know how much longer that has to go =\
I would be delighted if it was the start of the new year. Before then is even better.
Also this: "rhymes with schmam and schmax schmeasson schmee"
made me laugh.
If it's going to be controlled like ToMI please give us the option to change the movement controls to be like Grim Fandango / Escape from Monkey Island. They were like first person shooter controls. More like driving an RC car. W = Forward, A/D rotate, S = backwards.
I was disappointed when it had been a while since I'd heard anything about season three as well. When they said they were releasing Tales of Monkey Island, that made everything better.
A forum member went to Comic Con and Telltale told him that we'd be seeing it around November or December.
No, actually, a forum member went to Comic Con and said that he thought the season would start at the end of the year but doesn't remember where he heard that and might have just dreamed it.
Please be careful attributing stuff to Telltale, because it gets picked up and then turned into people complaining that something hasn't happened when Telltale "promised" it would. Stuff changes all the time, so please don't take something as "Telltale said" unless it's coming from an official announcement.
It´s not that small anymore. In one thread they said they have 50+ employees by now. Yes, "Tales Of Monkey Island" and "Sam & Max" should be the main series for Telltale I would lie if i´d say that i dont wanna see more of Sam & Max.
As Sam once said, "patience is a sharp razor to swallow". I'm craving some more Sam and Max action too, but I rather have Telltale games take their sweet time to make Season 3 well worth the wait
I NEVER said November OR December. Someone may have said "possibly at the end of this year," but that is far from a confirmation. Besides, I was using subtle sarcasm in that thread. An archaic thing that I should probably avoid using on these forums from now on.

Yeah, sorry. I just misread what he said, saw that someone asked where it was said, and replied to that. I'll look closer before quoting stuff about new games.
Telltale have really stepped up their abilities to develop great games, especially with the Wallace and Gromit and Tales of Monkey Island series. I'd expect when S&M Season 3 does drop we are going to be in for the most rewarding Sam & Max adventure yet...
Speculation, then. I think they'll formally announce Sam & Max Season 3 around the release of ToMI episode 4 or 5, and I doubt they'll release the first episode this year. But we'll see.

A game Company should never stick to just one series you know.
Don't worry
Season 3 will come!;)

And he took all my change. Bad Monkey!
Oooh, that makes things interesting then!
You dissin' ma "Alone in the Dark"?
Which makes me very sad... It is my favorite Telltale series. Sam & Max is a close #2 though.
Wallace and Gromit was way too short.
some more episodes wouldn't hurt.

Although monkey island should NEVER STOP PRODUCTION

Now I feel kinda bad about it.
I still love Hit the Road.
