On that topic (and having not played the PC version), are the object/item interactions supposed to be so dumbed down? Where is my ‘Look at’, ‘examine’, ‘Pick up, ‘Move’, etc options? Seems that all I can do is one thing with each item? Will Sam and Max be like this? Half the humour was in trying all the ways to interact with an object/item and getting all the funny remarks (“why would I want to do that”, “I can’t pick this up”, “what would I do with a rubber chicken”, “etc..”
Sam & Max is similar, but it does have a lot of different funny quotes to listen to anyways, especially from episode 4 of the first season (after that one, pretty much every item receives a different answer in every episode). You can still try to use two items together and get a hilarious answer too (look for the "Did you try...?" lists in the website after you play them).

Why no conversation trails? Is this simply a design choice for W&G? Does Sam & Max have conversation trails? Again half the fun for me in an adventure game is trying out all the different questions/responses
Yep, it does, exactly like the adventures of old ;-)

Whilst 800 MS points is a good price point, will XBLA users be able to benefit from cheaper later episodes if they have one/all of the previous episodes? You allude to this in the release announcement blog, however it is unclear if you are suggesting that PC users will continue to benefit from ‘discounts’, or XBLA users as well?
Sadly, I don't think there'll be any offer of this kind for Wallace & Gromit since MS doesn't usually offer packs for Live Arcade... Sam & Max will be a single game for each season, though.

Welcome and glad to see you liked W&G :P
