Sam & Max: Abe Lincoln Must Die = free!
« on: Monday, November 05, 2007, 04:25:18 PM »
FREE!!!

This is episode 4 from the first season. Currently IGN/Gamespy/Fileplanet have exclusivity on it, but tomorrow it should be available everywhere.

This should tide me over until I can buy the full season.

Shit.  I keep forgetting about this.  I really want to support the game, and that means I need to go spend my money at retail.  I'm really hoping these do pretty well.

Yeah, I do need to pick up Season One, as well.

It's great that one episode is coming to us for FREE. Wo0t!!! Consider me down!

There's a direct download link there now, so I'm getting it.  No ads or other nasties, right?

Nope, nothing like that. Theres a little launcher thing that tells you about the other episodes and has links to their forums and stuff, but I think thats a standard thing and not just included in the free release.

Very entertaining, I'm going to have to pick up the full season.

Downloaded this last night. Going to install and play after I finish some schoolwork. I'm happy to hear that it's good - motivation to finish my work quicker.

I sort of want to do this, but my intention is to play the whole series sooner than later, so I'll probably just wait so I can play through them in order.

Strange that they do Ep4 as the freebie. You'd think they would just start at the beginning.

Supposedly Episode 4 was the most liked episode. Since they released it to promote season 2, I guess it was a matter of putting your best foot forward.

Funny stuff.  It's the same humor I remember from the original game.  Nice 3D look, and it actually runs well on my system.  I'm stuck now, as usual in point-and-click adventures.

Not a big deal.
