Beyond Time and Space now available on PSN
Oct 21st
This news post is a couple of days late, but it’s still worth reporting that Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space (season two) is now available on Sony’s downloadable service, PSN.
I think it’s just available for the US at the moment; I’m not too sure (that’s we in the biz call journalism, folks). Grab the five episodes for $19.99 or bundle it with The Devil’s Playhouse for $29.99. Further details can be found on the PS Blog.
Thanks to Mojo for the tip.
Season two coming to the iPad
Aug 16th
The details are a bit scarce at the moment, but according to a report from Gamespot’s GDC Europe coverage, Telltale Games are bringing season two (Beyond Time and Space) to Apple’s iPad platform, localised for different regions of the world. Telltale claim the iPad is the fastest-growing gaming device on the market. It’s worth noting that only the first episode of season three was released on the tablet device, though.
Of course, those looking for dog and rabbit fun without having to remortgage their house can find it at Telltale’s site for $29.99 on the PC. Just saying.

Nah, just kidding. I’m afraid this news is just like the previous post. Steam are having a sale and at the moment all the Sam & Max games are on discount. Pick up the complete pack, or individual seasons, for 75% off their normal price.

All Sam & Max games discounted 66% on Steam
May 24th
I can see you hiding at the back. Yes, you! You haven’t got any/all (delete as appropriate) of Telltale’s Sam & Max games, do you? For shame! Luckily for you, online distribution platform Steam have slashed all Sam & Max games by 66%.
You can either get the whole collection or each individual season. But hurry, this cheap-as-chips deal only lasts until Thursday at 4PM Pacific Time.
