Wired’s Game|Life blog has a great writeup about the writer’s visit to Telltale and his impressions seeing and playing the followup to what the he describes as “one of the defining events of my mid-adolescence.”
A third preview has also appeared at OCModShop, which contains some quotes from Telltale CEO Dan Connors about Telltale’s goals for Sam & Max episodes, some refined details on the pricing structure, and also includes a handful of unique digital camera shots of the game as demoed at the recent Penny Arcade Expo.
