Telltale Games - Season Two premiere release date and title revealed!

Season Two premiere release date and title revealed!
Posted by jake	September 25, 2007
Hey guys, guess what? Though there will be a full real announcement tomorrow along with new screenshots, gameplay videos, FAQ updates, and the works, but for now, here are the basics! Sam & Max Season Two makes its debut with Episode 201: Ice Station Santa, premiering for GameTap subscribers on Thursday, November 8th. Then, just a day later on Friday, November 9th, the game will be available to buy and download from Telltalegames.com! After a quick break, the releases will go monthly, starting with episode 202's debut on GameTap, Thursday, January 10th, followed by the worldwide release on Telltale's website, Friday, January 11th. After that, look for the subsequent episodes to land on GameTap and Telltale's site the second Thursday/Friday of each month! Crazy, huh? I would make up some hopefully-entertaining lie to put here about how I had to lock Emily in the conference room or fill her desk with packing popcorn or something to post this stuff a day early, but the truth is, she's on vacation and therefore powerless to stop me! See you tomorrow for the full scoop!

	Finnaly! Bring Sam & Max to Gametap and The world!
	Comment by Bosco is Paronoid September 25, 2007, 12:14 pm

	Hooray! Season Two is on its way! Is Santa that little guy we saw in the concept art? And Jake, you know those spoilers I saw in debug mode? They really aren't of this episode, are they? This is gonna be a nice season. :)
	Comment by Kedri September 25, 2007, 12:34 pm

	Huzzah! Now we know the release date! Can't wait! But at the same time... DAMMIT I was a week off. :(

	Comment by j4yx0r September 25, 2007, 12:44 pm

	Kedri: I think some of the stuff you saw listed in that menu is from this episode, actually. We'll see, though.

	wooooohoooooo!!! my life's got a meaning again
	Comment by Bruno83 September 25, 2007, 1:41 pm

	November's such a depressing month with all those leaf-less trees, the winter coming up, the rain... What was I trying to say... Oh yeah, this game is going to cheer things up for sure!
	Comment by Erwin September 25, 2007, 1:45 pm

	yay season 2!
	Comment by splash1 September 25, 2007, 1:48 pm

	Great! Now, what's up with the Wii release?;) I would prefer that over the PC version, because of my old spec.
	Comment by jannar85 September 25, 2007, 1:49 pm

	Ice Station Santa with Sam & Max going in for the big one at the North Pole or just across the street. lol :)
	Comment by splash1 September 25, 2007, 1:56 pm

	Yay! Wee! Horraa! This is really great. Ice Station Santa - I think we may be able to guess where we are going - Greenland, of course! (I'm a Dane) I had hoped for an earlier release-date, though. Reading the earlier posts, I had assumed it would be released around September-October. Still, only a month and a half to wait! Wee!
	Comment by Saile September 25, 2007, 2:15 pm

	Wow! And that was about time! I was already missing Sam & Max. I can't wait. I hope we'll be able to pre-order the season as we did for Season 1.. you know, with the special discount and the free dvd-rom at the end of the season? ;-)
	Comment by Diduz September 25, 2007, 2:31 pm

	Hurahh!! This will be the highlight of 2008 for me! :D

	Comment by kgoodies September 25, 2007, 4:41 pm

	Holy bacon grease fried in a black rubber frying pan max, I can't wait for this superb next installment of SAM AND MAX.
	Comment by Threepwood42 September 25, 2007, 6:34 pm

	Yay!! Another release around my birthay :D I will enjoy once again deluding myself into believing that Telltale's hard work and development time is just a Reaaaalllly thoughtfull gift just for me :P Cant wait for a release that fall on a November second ;) then surely my delusions will be justified :D
	Comment by glo_kidd September 25, 2007, 8:54 pm

	The first episode of the second season is a Christmas Special?! Oh joy!
	Comment by Zeek September 25, 2007, 9:35 pm

	I'm weeping...NOW I CAN LIVE AGAIN!
	Comment by Mystinsun September 25, 2007, 10:44 pm

	Yay! Preorder possible?
	Comment by imYemeth September 26, 2007, 1:53 am

	Good question and more important, will international customers be able to preorder the whole season via paypal again? ;) Would be great, because I'm really looking forward to the new episodes. Can't wait to get my furry little butterfingers on them :)
	Comment by RhodanV5500 September 26, 2007, 2:14 am

	only 6 weeks to go :) so is season 2 going to be 6 episodes or will it be longer? Ice station santa sounds like a good opportunity for Max to stomp on some elves
	Comment by Hero1 September 26, 2007, 3:19 am

	Oh man. Only a day before the Orange Box. Feeling daring are we? ;)

	Comment by vyperspit September 26, 2007, 5:19 am

	Huzzah!!! And it's only a few days before my birthday. I know what I'm getting myself!! I can't wait. I've already converted a few people to S&M and I have a few more people to lend my DVD-Rom to. I must convert the world! (insert diabolical laughter here).

ITS GONNA KICK SO MUCH ASS!
	Comment by kgoodies September 26, 2007, 4:30 pm

	I love you guys so much. YAY! My only request: monthly episodes = lame DAILY episodes= GAMING BLISS if the dudes at c\|net can crank out a podcast a day, you guys can crank out a game.
	Comment by Yit September 26, 2007, 4:46 pm

	If you wait until April, you can have yourself one work week of daily episodes. Everyone else will have played the first four before you get a chance, but hey.
	Comment by Jake September 26, 2007, 11:13 pm

	dg10050: The Orange Box comes out October 9th, not November 9th. :P
	Comment by Codemaster September 27, 2007, 8:24 am

	How could i miss that many episodes?!?!?!?!?
	Comment by Sam&MaxFan4277 September 27, 2007, 12:45 pm

	Not that I'm impatient or anything (nose starts to grow...), but when will we be able to pre-order the entire season? Come on, the last answer in your FAQ section suggests that we send you money; this is the perfect opportunity! (begins chanting "Is it November yet? Is it November yet?)
	Comment by RoadRunner September 28, 2007, 8:10 am

	i cant wait to play that on gametap
	Comment by leonil September 28, 2007, 12:51 pm

	Comment by kgoodies September 29, 2007, 8:03 pm

	No word on whether or not this will be on Steam?
	Comment by Alvin September 30, 2007, 10:24 am

	Alvin, why would it be on Steam? Nothing has even been hinted at it being available anywhere but gametap and telltale's site, sorry.
	Comment by Jared September 30, 2007, 6:38 pm

	Cool! How much will the episodes cost? And i need to sort my Paypal account out sharpish for this!
	Comment by Rich October 1, 2007, 9:20 am

	Right now I'm wondering what criminal conspiracy is going to unfold for Sam&Max now that Hugh Bliss is, how do you say, flushed away. Whatever it is, I bet its gonna be big and full of laughs.
	Comment by vyperspit October 1, 2007, 6:35 pm

	SacrcasteclySorry for my horrid spelling mistake!
	Comment by Max rules October 2, 2007, 12:26 pm
