Unofficial Tex Murphy

Hey, thought I'd pop in again. How's everyone being? Just thought I'd drop a line and see if anyone else here has been playing the new net episodes of Sam and Max. I played the first episode and it was great. Loved it, felt just like the old game.

Catch yas round

Hey there!

Yeah - I have played both Culture Shock (episode 1) and Situation Comedy (episode 2) ... Although they are a bit short, they are quite much fun, and they really have the feel of the old Sam & Max game. I can't wait to load up the 3rd game (The mole, the mob and the meatball) when I get hold of it

Sam and Max hold a very special place in my heart, second only to a certain P.I. I signed up for a GameTap account solely to play the new games (and for Myst Online, but it turns out my net connection is too slow ), and don't regret it for a second. Telltale is really hitting the nail on the head!

Haven't started in on Episode 3 yet, but I'll hopefully get a chance sometime soon. I'm falling behind! #4 is just around the corner, and judging from the trailer, it looks like they just keep getting better.

Haven't played any Sam & Max, but it is really heartwarming to see you posting again, Chris.

FYI, Chris is one of the original posters and a long time Tex fan from down under.

Hey Jim, whats cracking? I thought I'd also add in I used to run the Tex site, Coit Tower, which hosted one of the now dead message boards. While it was up, it had quite alot of traffic before everyone moved over here... I believe I joined this community in 1998, as I'm pretty sure I started my site July 10th 1998. Gee how time flies!

Playing The Mole, The Mob and the Meatball right now. All three episodes have been a blast to play. Nothing really edgy in the way of gameplay or humor, but it's very enjoyable and often quite funny. Overall the episodes are about as good as I was expecting Freelance Police to be.

Wow! Nine years! I think I still had some hair back then.
