    The thing about the original Sam voice was that he sounded like a deadpan hardboiled detective from an old film noir, which was perfect and made the absurd dialogue funnier. The current Sam doesn't really have that, and his voice is warm and mellow and has a tendency to undersell everything. It's okay I guess, but even after all this time it just doesn't gel like the way Hit The Road version does, or the way the current Max does.

    I'm not far into the new game yet but I am definitely liking the grimey graphics, and general, errrr... 'cinematicity'?

    He said
    Holy heaping helpings of Herodotus on base with Marshall stacks and a wah-wah pedal!

    Another classic throwback I loved, by the way, was Sam doing another "One of us should..." line (meaning Max).

    Sam: Where do you keep all of your change, Max?

    Max:
    In my sock.

    Sam: And where do you keep your sock?
    *pause*
    Max: That's none of your damn business, Sam."

    Has anyone else noticed that season 3 has a lot of classic Sam & Max stuff that we've never seen again up until now?
    The inside view of the inventory box.

    Things going on in the background (sort of) and the large amount of rats and pigeons are back from the comic.
