That was the joke that the train wasn't arriving for a long while.

In every episode there's been a psychic character that isn't Max

Ep1. Gordon the Brain
Ep2. Maximus (He's technically not max :P)
Ep3. Sammun-Mak
Ep4. Charlie Ho-Tep
Ep5. ???

Where does the line blur between psychic powers and magic? Papierwaite can teleport himself and others across a short distance (without knowing anyone's phone number), fire dark magic at others, and keep people from moving (and just from the Tomb of Sammun-Mak), but it's implied that he can't use the Toys of Power for himself. He seems capable of doing a lot more after being fused to Yog-Soggoth, so could he hypothetically use the toys then?

I noticed this little blurb on the Adventure Gamers page for Episode 5.

"In the finale episode of the season, an enormous, scaly, floppy-eared creature has put the city on high alert, and Sam assembles a crack team to stop him. To end the mayhem, they must venture...inside...the beast!"

I wonder if this is an official thing from Telltale, or just speculation? It certainly sounds a lot like one of Telltale's official marketing spiels.

Whoah, that sounds pretty awesome and a lot like a marketing thing from Telltale. I think there's a pretty high chance now that we will be going inside Max...

BUT WHO IS ON THE CRACK TEAM? I'm guessing:

Skunkape
Papierwaite (He's alive I tell you, I alive!)
Momma Bosco
Harry Moleman (he's invincible against elder gods)
Grandpa Stinky

That's who I would have...

You get my drift...

[lombre]

I'd guess:

Sam
Momma Bosco (perhaps instructing them from her lab)
Harry Moleman
Grandpa Stinky
Sal (waitasecond, he's dead)

And of course, numerous Sam clones to act as the green helmets.
"Shouldn't we go help him?"
"Naw, he's just one of those green helmets. We got like fifty of them."

...
wow. I kinda doubt that would happen because it sounds a bit too much like what you had to do in "Strongbadia, the FREE!", so I'd say it's speculation.

I just saw the ending after the credits, and based on it, I must say that either girl Stinky will want to kill Grandpa stinky even more, or she will give up altogether (because her plan may require a team).
If the latter, you might have to help her kill Grandpa Stinky to get an item. Just a thought.

people and things we MUST see in this last episode:
1. Flint(what will happen when he notices Sam's handwriting doesn't match MR. S's sal's, if he notices that).
2. a musical number(like those in episodes 103 and 204). They are ABSOLUTELY necessary in a TTG Sam and Max season.
3. both Stinkys
4. at least Max's mouth([hidden] Sam's future[/hidden])
5. the office(we see their future there, and TTG basically owes it to us after the first four episodes not having it). An entire Sam and Max game season without the office is unheard of and unthinkable.
6. Superball and his superiors(possibly the masterminds of this season?
7. the molepeople Obediah and Jedediah. I'd expect we'll learn a lot more about them.


Take a look at this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWNFiZDHJK4
3:17 did that happen in they stole max's brain?
7:30 when and where did that happen(or has it happened yet)?


It's an entire month after Beyond the Alley of the Dolls' trailer has been released(on youtube). When will The city that dares not sleep's trailer be released?

No! We won't kill Grandpa Stinky! He became one of my favourite characters! I will be very unhappy if he dies (again)! Anyway,that plot does sound interesting, maybe you could team up with Max's soul? Or maybe he is still grumpy like in season 2?

1) Foreshadowing episode 3 I think.
2)A joke probably.

[gilau]

i really thougth that giant monster max, what ever, has more to be with norrinton and the power he gave hem, so maybe norrinton some how is on control of max, like norrinton spirit is naw on hem or somthing like that, but maybe is jr,just that i dont understand how, but maybe is the chanse to make the soooooo mentioned jr appier :/ . A, and this maybe saunds wierd, but i always suspected of charlie,is not only that he looks evil, never somthing good came of ventriloquist poppets on any fiction storys. xD AAAA!!! And again im dying for plaing this new episode, X_x, but at the same time no, i just dont want this season ends, it was amazing, a lot of things happened just on eash episode. Haaa i forgot to mention, bosco, were is bosco? maybe he will make he reapiration on this game, i really wish that, it was my favorit secondary character with flint paper, i really like momma bosco, but not as mush as bosco. xD

He's really busy in Las Vegas, did you already forget his letter last episode :P

[gilau]

actually we haven't really seen the office since 203

[SunnyGuy]

204, although Superball was guarding the closet. Then again, the visit in 204 takes place during 205, so then that would make the first game without a visit to the office 301 I guess?

By the way, most of the previews of the next Sam and Max game(for this season at least) have come when the month was half past. (specifically on the 13th, the 15th, and the 16th). I expect the preview for TCDNS will be posted within the next three days. Who's going to check on youtube.com/telltalegames for the preview every day starting tomorrow? I'm personally trying to check it every 6 hours.

The trailer actually shows up on Game Trailers quite a bit before it does on Youtube. I'd check there if you want to keep checking...

The episode 4 trailer was released on the same day on both sites, and episode 3 trailer is only on Youtube. I'm sticking to Youtube.

I guess it could be like 102 when you faked Sibyl's death(and max's), but that wouldn't be very creative to repeat two seasons and three episodes later.

1) Foreshadowing episode 3 I think.

But look at the background. Is that a panel on Skun'kape's ship that is flashing? We definitely did not see skun'kape's ship in episode 3.

[onlyamonkey]

yup, I read the whole thread.
now, im cutting myself.
