So I added Tales of Monkey Island to my shopping cart and The first episode of sam and max to my shopping cart and proceeded to check out...It charges me for sam and max. The deal does say a free game episode of your choice. What's going on here? Why am I still charged? How do I get the deal? It doesn't tell how to get it. :confused:

    You'll get a coupon code AFTER buying and paying for the Tales of Monkey Island pre-order
    EDIT: It means you'll download the free episode later

    Try Sam and Max or Wallace and Gromit's Grand Adventures. Quite for the adventure-game type. Or SBCG4AP works too. It's got a guy, and he insults people, and he's cool and attractive...

    Which one is more humorous? I really enjoy the comedy aspect of MI.
    I really liked the mouse controls of CMI, do either S&M or W&G have that?
    Thanks for the help!

    Well having only played the first episode of both Sam & Max: Season 1 and Wallace & Gromit, I would say that Sam & Max would be more for you. It has complete mouse controls and is a bit more humorous. I loved Wallace & Gromit (and the controls didn't really bother me much at all even though most people seem to completely loathe them) but that's also because I loved the old cartoons. It's a good game but as far as humor goes, you're better off watching the cartoons first to see if you like them because if you do you'll like the game. But for your free episode I would suggest Sam & Max.

    On the other hand, Sam & Max Season 1 Episode 4 is free no matter what so you could get that one and Wallace & Gromit. It's really up to you.

    Getting Sam and Max episode 1 of Season One isn't particularly smart right now, if you have any plans to play the whole season. The price is discounted to $20 for the season at the moment, so it's actually cheaper to buy the season than to get a free episode and then upgrade.

    Your coupon is good until June 2010. So, my suggestion is to play episode 4 of Sam and Max: Season One. That's how I got into the series and that episode is always free. If you like it, buy the season at the discounted price and then use the coupon to discount Wallace and Gromit, Sam and Max: Season Two, or Telltale's next series if that comes out before next June.

    Sam & Max Season 2 is a lot better than season 1, so I think if you are only getting 1 episode of S&M make it a season 2 episode.

    Strong Bad and Sam and Max will leave you laughing yourself to death. I'd say for Strong Bad, get Episode 2 or 3. For Sam and Max, you should definatly get Episode 2 for Season 1 or Episode 3 for Season 2.

    Thanks for all the help! I'm leaning toward S&M but I think I'll try Episode 4 of Season 1 to make sure I like it.

    Just remember, if you like Episode 4 and might want the whole season, you're better off just buying the whole thing for $19.99 instead of getting a free episode and upgrading (upgrading is more expensive at this point for some reason). Since Episode 4 is free, I would suggest you try out another of Telltale's games or an episode of season 2 of Sam and Max.

    You can always grab demos of anything you are wavering about. If you're an old school fan I'm gonna repeat Sam and Max; otherwise Strongbad simply because of all the old school graphics.
