or Save & Max Save The World as its now called. 1600points, or $20, for all 6 episodes seems like an ok deal I guess? I only played the first episode on pc back in the day, and I remember it was about 2-3 hours long, so if all 6 are like that, it should be about 12-15 hours long (if someone that finished all 6 could confirm or deny this would be cool) of adventure goodness for 20 bucks which sounds nice to me

That's a fine deal.

As with all adventure games though, the length depends on how quick you figure out the puzzles. You can probably blast through them all in an hour a piece with a guide (maybe even quicker im not sure) but without? Who knows, could be forever.

Edit: I wouldn't pay the asking price to get achievements though, I do that for 400 points games occasionally and an afternoons entertainment (Wolfenstein, Shinobi etc) but I already picked up Season 1 from Steam when it was a tenner on the weekend deal.

what would be the point of using a guide tho?

Sounds interesting.. I played a few of the demos for those episodes but they were a lot of fun. It's all up to controlls though, and whether I feel cheep or not.

I played the first couple of episodes on the PC and had a fun time. 1600 points for the whole season seams like a good deal so I reckon I'll pick it up.

2-3 hours of play per episode seems about right.

On the controls, I guess its just using the stick to move  a pointer around on screen. It should work fine.

I bought the entire first season on PC for $20 last year at Best Buy. The 1600 points price is well worth it.
