    It means exactly what the molemen said. Devil bunny destroys the Universe.

    Strange, but the Future Vision strongly reminds me of the crystal ball used in Loom.

    What are the PC requirements for this season? I never had a problem with season 1 or 2. Season 3 is choppy even at the lowest resolution. I'm running it on a 3GHz Pentium 4 with 2.5GB RAM.

    CONSPIRACY THEORY:

    That vision saying "I'm not gonna rest until I find the person who killed my partner!" with Sam, might mean we get a new...friend in episode 2.

    I just remember something:

    Is Sam 40? Awesome! (Really)
  • edited April 2010
    In dog year though. It probably means nothing since in Hit the Road Max said his estimated lifetime is pretty short but he's still wandering around.
  • edited April 2010
    It has been 161 dog years since his first appearance in the comics(if you go by the usual "multiply real years by 7" rule). He'd have to be about 6 years old in real time for being 40 in dog years to...

    ...

    What the hell am I doing?

    Exactly what I meant.

    "Will Sam find true love?" and the "killed my partner" thing both add up to Sam meeting a "friend" in The Tomb of Sammun-Mak.

    ONE TWO THREE FOUR-SHADOWING.

    When you been when we talk about the cartoon characters always, but always has the exactly same age this year and last year and that's apply to Sam and Max?

    Anyway, I always believed he was in his early 30, instead in his early 40!
  • edited April 2010
    Yeah, I finished it today too, and it was a pretty awesome ride!
    I'm really looking forward to the next episode,
    I noticed that Max doesn't get the shape shifting and mind reading toy in the end, so that should be interesting when they'll reappear.
    I love the new graphics, they're so shiny, it almost feels like I'm playing a game that's made by a different developer.
    The new facial expressions and actions are great too and bring so much more liveliness tot the screen.
    It doesn't beat Chariots of the Dogs for me, but seeing that this will probably only get better, I'm really looking forward to the next episodes.
    Keep it up, Telltale!

    Nah. He was too old already. Now it's a bit more charming ^^!

    Aww... it's sad that you would let such an insignificant thing like age get in the way of a potentially beautiful relationship between you and a giant talking cartoon dog. :(

    The problem is not the age, it's the hiperkinectic lagomorph he always hang out with. So, I prefer to keep it platonic ^^!

    In future vision there were two scenes which I haven't been played in the game itself (maybe they will occur in one of the next episodes):

    - Max digging (?) into Pudding Lincoln
    - Sam saying that he won't rest until he finds the one killing his Partner (!)
    * And Sam doing "something" undefined to Max (Pawn Shop)
    * And Max doing something to the Crysler Building (Sam on the street)
    Probably some more...

    Aren't you like a lagomorph yourself? What's the problem?
  • edited April 2010
    Just finished the first episode!

    Once I got used to the visual style, I found the same old humour and game there and loved it! The expresions add to the humour and the toys make things interesting.

    Hope Harry didn't get arrested for streaking in the end though ...
  • edited April 2010
    No worries... he got locked in a terranium with a superhot sunlight, and no-one bothered getting him out at all...

    Better?

    Unlike Max, I have a bit of personal regard about my health.

    Regard about my health in lagomorph standarts. Which pretty much starts with "Don't mess with someone crazier than you" and ends there.

    Also, I have a Cannon y training in karate.

    If you are talking about the craziness, yes. If you are talking about the game, this is the worst place to ask.

    So you would like the dog, eh?

    I guess we can make a deal... the dog for you, the lagomorph for me? Deal?

    Wait, when? I missed it.
  • edited April 2010
    I can't buy the episodes yet, but I got to see the basics in a walkthrough. Some seriously funny jokes & one-liners. I can't wait to finally be able to actually play it. & it's waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than anything on TV, for sure.

    A little. He'll probably turn up alive and well in the next episode. :)
