"THE PENILE ZONE "

"I dunno, frame rate looks a bit iffy. Also, I really thought he said the Penile Zone... "

looks like it has potential...

what the hell does penal mean, it sounds dirty

Wow, you must have huuuuuge pants. "

Awful framerate AND no diagonal support!?!?!? 
 
DO NOT BUY!

Point and click game with on a touch screen, yet they emulate a joystick. Oh Lord.

The guy sounds like the voice actor for Sam.

" That's so lame that when they finally have an interface that embraces their original GUI and control style perfectly, they remap the shitty console controls instead.
 
My new top "trends that need to stop in videogames" thing would have to be the remapping of controller joysticks and buttons to touch interfaces. Well, unless there is NO other option. 
 
Point and click adventure games do not need a virtual joystick, I don't care how far in the future we are. "

FInally a genre that actually works on a touch screen!

" I already have one of these and it fits in my pocket. "

Diagonal is not supported.

tap tap tap tap tap tap tap penal tap tap.

THE PENILE ZONE

"Also, I really thought he said the Penile Zone... "

"  UH HU HU HU  UH HU HU HU  UH HU HU HU  he said  penal....  "

touch screen is lame as hell . it needs tenderness

I dunno, frame rate looks a bit iffy. Also, I really thought he said the Penile Zone...

We should all embrace homos sometimes, Max.

Looks good on the iPad. 

dont turn the ipad diagonally, or else the ipad police will get you

taking their ad narrator cues from Alan Wake i see

Are we prepared for a Virtual Joystick concept page? Has it come to this?

" When i was watching this I had music playing and i thought Sam said that max "embraces homos".  I had to turn the music off and listen again, but sadly it said hobos. "

" if you can afford the iPad, you can also afford to play bad games on it. "

Looks like the iPad's larger screen really will give it more options for games over it's smaller brothers.  Quite interested in getting one (not simply for gaming of course) when it arrives here at the end of the month.

if you can afford the iPad, you can also afford to play bad games on it.

Well....F the iPad, but Hooray for Sam and Max.

i get it! they're in the penal zone because somebody stole the framerate!.....
 
ps: crappy framerate + totally voice acted game = odd experience , i mean it i already played some SAM & MAX with an old pc

" He said "The Penis Zone" 6 times.    The game doesn't look interesting to me at all.  Looks pretty gay.  "

" It's weird that they didn't stick with the point and click. A lot of telltale games have been using more direct control, it allows them to do more dramatic scene work. The main thing being you don't always have to be in a overhead isometric view (or similar) where you can see the floor in each area. Both Wallace & Gromit and Tales of Monkey Island used a more direct control. There are a lot of places in those games where a point and click interface wouldn't work, it's designed pretty fundamentally differently. I'm guessing that is the case with this game. It looks like this doesn't have the greatest frame rate, like Norm said, I'm still hyped for the pc version though! "

" Is that Destructoid quote at the end  sarcastic? "

He said "The Penis Zone" 6 times.

oooo compressed fmv cutscenes

" @captain_clayman:  framerate is important in any game. Especially since it's an adventure game with abundance of exploring, you wouldn't want to explore with flip-book like animation. It ruins the experience. "

The framerate doesn't bother me, its not like a fps where a good framerate is needed.

Why is this lameass announcer guy taking over all our game trailers.  i lose a piece of my soul every time i hear him.

Diagonal or bust!

I already have one of these and it fits in my pocket.
