Sam & Max: The City That Dares Not Sleep Review - Alternative Magazine Online

"Sam & Max is so crazy that you have to just go along with it. It will never make total sense. It doesn’t really have to either. This is a madcap cartoon brought to life, a walking, talking dog and a psychotic, rabbity-thing let loose on our computer/television screens. By remembering that the truly important thing in this franchise is the relationship between Sam & Max themselves, any story deficiencies fade away as background noise. A great end to the season that most definitely goes out with a bang."

I am glad to report that I liked this a lot more than the previous episode and hardly came across any bugs! As always though, I would be interested to hear if anyone else did encounter any bugs, errors etc, as well as feedback on my review. Cheers!

UPDATE: URL now fixed!

    Pretty much all reviews have been great for 305! Really excited about this one! :D

    Bit of a random question, but you never did that interview with Dom after Monkey Island 2 did you? Or did I miss it? :P

    Yeah it is a good final episode I have to admit!

    Not a random question at all! :D The Dom interview is forthcoming! He has actually answered the questions for Secret Of Monkey Island already, I might post them seperately this week while I wait for his LeChuck's Revenge ones. (I was originally just going to do them both at once.) He is good at getting back to me so I am sure he will do, even if it is taking a tad longer than usual!

    I just read in another thread that there is an alternate ending! I got a "walking into the sunset" kinda thing (to avoid spoilers)... is the other one much different?

    Is it worth updating my review for this? I guess people might like to know before they play the game that there are two outcomes, but then again I wouldn't have even noticed if it wasn't for the forum to be honest!

    Yeah, the ending I got was
    Sam & Max leaving in the time machine
    But that's the only ending I've played so I don't know how your one turns out. Apparently the ending is decided by Sam's dialogue option to remember their Adventures or Crimefightings just before leaving Max's body.
