Sam & Max's Future Vision would make a great present
Or it does. Or it ... did? Ever since I peered through Future Vision -- an amazing ocular toy employed in the first episode of Telltale's latest adventure, Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse -- my awareness of time has been (was?) sullied. In fact, I will never be more convinced that I'm staring through the device in this very moment, plagiarizing every word my future self was writing ... later today. Yes. Now I will write, I feel like I'm being watched. %Gallery-88038%
Buy Sam & Max on Steam, get items in Team Fortress 2
Celebrating the release of the first episode of Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse, Valve has announced an interesting promoti onal tie-in with Team Fortress 2. Starting today, anyone who pre-ordered The Devil's Playhouse or purchases it within the first week on Steam will get a special batch of items for Team Fortress 2. The three items, pictured above, were crafted by Telltale and include Max's pistol, Sam's revolver and -- bizarrely -- Max's severed head. The hat is purely cosmetic, and we have no idea what the stats are for the pistols, but who cares? Just look at them. If you like Team Fortress 2 and you like Sam & Max, it's pretty much a no-brainer.
Sam & Max: The Penal Zone gameplay video is very Stinky
The trailers haven't done anything for you. Our words of praise and adulation leave you unaffected. So what, then, will it take to get you interested in Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse? If your answer was two minutes and seventeen seconds of unadulterated PS3 gameplay footage, then we've got you covered. Telltale has released a gameplay trailer featuring Max's newfound psychic powers and everyone's favorite diner operator, Stinky. It also teaches a valuable lesson: Don't ever call Max by the name "Harvey." The first episode of The Devil's Playhouse, entitled The Penal Zone, premieres on PC, Mac and PlayStation Network this Thursday, April 15.
