Regarding S&M S3, if you guys could do a digital release, please do it via Bandcamp where we can order it in the format we want it in (mp3, FLAC, ALAC, and so on). Mark Isham has done this with some of his soundtracks this year and it's been great to have control of what format we want to buy it in.

Jared's doing the Walking Dead music, as the game is coming from the comic not the show. I like a lot of the music in the show, though!

Re: Sam & Max soundtrack, if any forward momentum happens again I'll be sure to get people to look into things like Bandcamp, as it's a great service.

I just adore Jared's music for this series, so it's a real shame we haven't had an official release of the soundtrack yet. But in the mean time, at least we've got Teeth's awesome uploads! Thank you so much for those!

Since I wanted them on my iPod, and I thought some other folks might too, I took Teeth's audio tracks off of YouTube and compiled them together. Here it is to download, to save anyone else the trouble who wants to do the same thing!

If anyone has any trouble with MegaUpload, just say so and I'll try and host it somewhere else (though I've never had any problems with it). I tried Mediafire originally but it was too big (it's about 350 MB while MF only allows for 200), though I could split it into parts.

Oh, and if this isn't supposed to be posted or something, just say the word and I'll remove the link right away. But just in case it's alright, I figured I'd help out anyone else looking to put the soundtrack on their MP3 players.

Wait, but Jurassic Park has a digital soundtrack. Does that mean getting the rights for digital soundtracks is easier or that it was something you could do because you got the rights to do it before the game was released?

The big question is what's on the soundtrack. If it is themes and motifs from the movie that were used in game OR if it is the original composed score from the actual game is the big question. Even something as small as the BTTF twinkle can make all the difference between getting the rights to sell the soundtrack or not.

The digital JP soundtrack (24 minutes) which is downloadable for Deluxe Edition pre-orderers does explicitly NOT contain John Williams' themes/motifs, just Jared's compositions in the same spirit. If anything, Universal imposes more restrictions on TTG than LucasArts did.

oh damn, dude, thank you so much!
I resorted to using a sketchy website to download the audio from each video separately, and it was such a hassle for what ended up being only a few songs. I dunno how you did it, but you rule!

You're welcome! Time and patience, mostly, haha. Enjoy!

Thanks for the answer Jake, I wasn't aware the game was coming from the comic perspective. Cool, I look forward to hearing Jared's fresh take on that then

What's complicated to you?

Basically, all Jake said was that don't expect soundtracks from JP, BTTF, TMI, Walking Dead, and maybe even King's Quest if they are still doing that. Why? Some of those compositions are copyright protected by the studios that own those properties. If they do make a soundtrack, it will be of all the ORIGINAL compositions for the games and will contain none of the scores sources from the licensed properties that were used in the game itself.

Thank you very much for sharing this! If there is ever a digital release I will definitely buy it, but these files are going to my iPod until then. =)

Do you think anyone could re-post those audio tracks? Megaupload got seized, as I'm sure you all know, and I was unfortunate enough to stumble on this great thread only after the fact.

Personally, I'd be much, much more inclined to buy the soundtrack if there's a physical CD. I prefer listening to music on a computer or portable player, but I like to own a physical product for it as well. Somehow, it seems to help me remember what I have.

But since they don't even seem to sell the season 1 and 2 soundtracks any more, I can't say I'm very hopeful of it ever happening.

Same here.

Oh come on, seriously, still nothing!? Not even a Digital Release? *sigh* I'd like to give you money Telltale, I really would, but no S3 Soundtrack, no deal!

Hey, for anyone who would still like the MP3 versions of Teeth's rips/uploads, I reuploaded it to DepositFiles after MU was shut down.

Enjoy! And again if there's any problem with this, let me know and I'll be sure to take down the link.

Hey, thanks so much. It's sad that it has to go this route, but this music is too great to only be enjoyed in-game. While hope may have passed, I guess I can still gripe about it.
