It seems not. The stone statue of Mr. Spatula is vice president now.

And Sam got his soul ripped from his body, transforming him into an undead monster who is unable to communicate with the living, and Max got to be a zombie.

Thanks Jake, this was seriously great.

Are kunckles like cankles?

Only if you believe!

I wonder if Sam and Max's new design was influenced by the statue that was released last year? That also had Sam and Max with pointy knuckles, knees and elbows. And Max had slightly glossy teeth, which he also has in season 3.

I still kinda think that the addition of shadows just gave more definition to otherwise obscured detail on their models, but I dunno, there was what, a year or so between them?

They've really let him go to the dogs...
Sorry.

That's partly it -- the realtime lighting is improved -- but the characters were both also pretty heavily upres'd, given more detail in their models (especially in their faces, to allow the animators to create facial expressions and mouth shapes with greater detail), and had high res normal maps painted (note Sam's jacket and suit are now correctly baggy and full of folds), and as a result Max now has some slight knuckles, while Sam's beautiful hands go unloved.

Noticed that right away, particularly on Max. Looks nice.

I'm curious about this remark. Is it possible to elaborate so I least the hands recieve love from me?

The added detail is great. I felt like the cloth texture on Sam's coat was overdoing it just a bit, but I loved everything else.

I loved the cloth texture on the suit. It differentiates Sam's suit fabric from his hat's felt (which lacks that texture, obviously).
