Machinima Shorts: Gametap only?

[anonima]

Does anyone know if a Gametap subscription will be required to get the machinima Sam and Max shorts between episode releases, or will there be some kind of Telltale system to get them, too?

I don't think they'll be GameTap only, although they may debut on GameTap before they start showing up in other places.

Machinima shorts? What are they?

[Emily]

"Machinima" refers to movies made with a game or game engine. More info. (http://www.machinima.com/)

The Sam & Max shorts will be like little skits made with Telltale's engine. We're aiming for something like the animated shorts that used to play before movies.

They may be related to what's going on in the games, or the may be completely unrelated... but either way, they'll give fans a glimpse into Sam & Max's world during the weeks between episode releases.

Brilliant! :) The whole shorts between episodes idea is great, and it would be a huge shame if only Gametap subscribers could get their hands on them.
