Your first Sam&Max

Random · 05-08-2003, 08:35 PM

Do you remember the first time you heard of Sam&Max? I was trying to remember when I first 'got it'. I think my first experience was with the one pagers in The Adventurer issues included with other Lucas games. Then I got the game when it came out on 3.5" disks. I loved it so much, I bought the CD version when it was released to get all the voices. That's when I started collecting anything S&M I could get my hands on.

Now its your turn to share.

I first played the demo on one of those 4 billion and one game demo CD's. Then got the pack with that and Day of the Tentacle and so many other classics.

Your avatar reminded me of Monkey Island, geez I need to reinstall those. Playing Monkey Island is probably what got me hooked on Lucas adventure games, and when S&M got their game I just knew it had to be good.

theholyidiot · 05-13-2003, 02:04 AM

I first heard about Sam and Max before I heard about Monkey Island. I was a fps-junkie and would play anything violent I could get my hands on. Then I went to a buddy of mine's house, (by the way, this was in 97, I was barely 5 when it first came out) and he said he had to show me this really cool game he was borrowing from his cousin. He'd been playing all day, so the very first thing I saw was the bungee jump into the tarpits. I was instantly hooked and bought the adventure packs, as well as the CD version of S & M. I never even saw a copy of the 3.5 disk one. Unfortunately, as I was introduced to the world of Sam and Max late, by the time I tried to buy a comice book of them, it was out of print already. Here's hoping that the game does well and they rerelease "Surfin' the Highway" in an attempt to make more money.

The fact that as a second grader, the trailer supplied with many Lucas Arts games in which Max jumps once on Trixie's bed excited me to no ends.

I MEAN GOD DAMN, LLOYD, FURRY CRITTERS AND BED JUMPIN'! YEEHAW!

I got the game as a kid, though it never worked properly on my old computer. It was an old Packard-Bell 66Mhz POS that ran off of DOS and Windows 3.1. Ahhh, those were the days. Oh course the cursor would ALWAYS leave a pixel trail that would only disappear when an animation occured. It was a pain in the ass but I played it religiously for several months.

That's kida like my tale: I started out with the 3.5" floppies, soon those weren't enough, I needed more, so I got the CDs, once I had those, I had to get the t-shirts and action figures...

Random · 05-20-2003, 10:08 AM

You have action figures? Where do I get MY action figures? I want action figures.

SyntheticGerbil · 05-21-2003, 09:26 AM

There are no action figures. I think he got lost in some sort of tangent of his (As brief as it may have been.) and needed something to say.

Samandmax221 · 06-15-2003, 08:45 PM

I don't remember but I'll make something up that sounds good.

I sam and max as soon as popped out of my moms womb!

That sounds good

*Jester* · 06-16-2003, 12:19 AM

I'd rather hear the sound of an icepick on its way into my brain.

pggmilltn · 06-16-2003, 11:49 PM

I was given Sam and Max as a present. My dad and I used to both play the Kings Quest Series. From there I went on to get the Monkey Island Series, Full Throtel, Dig, Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, and many other Lucas Arts games. What can I say? I'm hooked.

sheaday6 · 06-17-2003, 03:07 AM

I was looking for Cosmic Osmo, but got sam & max instead

madmonkeygal! · 06-18-2003, 08:48 AM

I actually got my copy of Sam and Max with The Lucasarts entertainment pack last year! I wanted to get it before, but copies of the game avalible before that only worked on DOS!

Setion · 06-22-2003, 07:22 AM

I got bored when Jester was doing his Ice Pick trick and started playing on the computer. And that is when I fell in love with Castle....

Wait, who the hell are Sam and Max?

*Jester* · 06-22-2003, 08:09 PM

Aaaahhh.... castle

Is Sam the name of the spade?

Setion · 06-23-2003, 06:16 AM

I think Max is the nick name of V the vampire.

Indy#1Fan · 06-27-2003, 05:30 PM

I think setion is the name of a stupid gay transvestite.

sheaday6 · 06-27-2003, 09:53 PM

he's not stupid!

Indy#1Fan · 06-28-2003, 01:36 PM

Ok so I can't make fun of Hippo boy?

I spose I could do that

**Skinkie** · 06-28-2003, 01:51 PM

The last guy who tried to insult Setion got banned.....

Indy#1Fan · 06-28-2003, 08:32 PM

You mean that SamandMax221 guy?

sheaday6 · 06-28-2003, 09:06 PM

No, jesus

Indy#1Fan · 06-29-2003, 11:57 AM

Har Har

Setion · 06-29-2003, 02:54 PM

Hey, nice to see when banned people come back and troll. Wait...I mean it's nice to see fresh faces. Not that I post on this board a lot, some of us have lives.

Well, lives that don't consist of trolling on boards and knowing the names of gay transvestites. Setion isn't that common a name, but I'm glad that your experience of the homosexual underground stretches onto such a personal level. Hey, you can move to Texas, I hear that Supreme court victory is a big win for your...people. Well, the gay people, not sure it has much to do with dressing up like your mother. Or Dionne Warwick, or whatever.

But sure, you can make fun of "hippo boy". And then get a response from "hippo boy", "dumbass quote from lucasarts character at the bottom of my posts boy"...er..samnmax211...er...I mean Indy#1Fan. And then get your ass banned, while I try and talk my way out of one. But hey, if getting @#$%ed on a message board was a real physical event, you'd be entitled to a sodomy punch card.

*Jester* · 06-29-2003, 03:30 PM

Down Setion. Man, this guy doesn't know when to stop. So we'll help him out and ban him.

sheaday6 · 07-01-2003, 12:54 AM

Strike 2! One more and we get the FBI involved,

Zanadu · 07-01-2003, 02:49 AM

Meanwhile back in topic land!

I first heard of Sam and Max hit the road about 5 or so years ago...

My friend got it and said it was funny as hell, and let me borrow it, I played it and I loved it, and I just gave him back the game 3 days ago...

I am looking to buy my own copy now, anyone know of a place that sells antiques?

PS: I am the FBI!

*mercatfat* · 07-01-2003, 03:04 AM

just buy it and don't whine.

Zanadu · 07-01-2003, 03:11 AM

no amount of money can keep me from my chaotic little buddy

Setion · 07-01-2003, 03:17 AM

I don't think members of the FBI say things like "topic land".

Zanadu · 07-01-2003, 03:37 AM

I refer you to my shut the hell up comment here Setion:

Setion · 07-02-2003, 06:54 AM

Shouldn't those be in reverse order?

What I meant was, shouldn't what you say make sense?

For some reason that sounded like "**** you kettle, you're black!"

SyntheticGerbil · 07-02-2003, 11:23 PM

... and Harriet Tubman stars in Uncle Tom's Cabin.

DrSoloMan · 07-04-2003, 06:25 AM

My first Sam & Max moment probably came along after finishing Day of the Tentacle after school, giggling madly and looking for more LucasArts stuff. I recently dug out my full talkie version and the humour is still as twisted as ever, I laughed my pants off when i first played it through, now it's possibly even funnier than before. After that i went through all the monkey islands and full throttle. Didn't like full throttle as much, but maybe the new one'll be better. We can but hope I guess...

SyntheticGerbil · 07-06-2003, 01:36 AM

You're boring.

Setion · 07-06-2003, 07:00 AM

Must....not...flame....must...keep.....control....

Thanks for being the nicotine patch of my cancer, Sean.
