Sam and Max season 3, or whatever its called comes out this week.

Its hard for me to explain exactly what this means to me.  I started playing PC adventure games at a very early age, specifically the space quest series from SIerra,  and of course all of the fantastic Lucasarts classics.  These games affected the way I view the world in a lot of ways.  For instance, I get super excited for any sort of road side attraction... especially the dumb ones.  I owe this in no small part to Sam and Max hit the road.  I also have always loved strange sci fi space movies, because of the space quest series.  Full Throttle was interesting to me because it was one of the first games I played with a true cinematic feel without being an FMV movie with occasional inputs.   
 
Anyway, where all this is going, is that I have become a HUGE Telltale fan over the last several years, because they have caused a Renaissance in the most influential genre  for me.  Its interesting, because Telltale has made me go back and play some of the adventure games that I missed over the years.  For instance, prior to telltale reigniting my passion for these fantastic games, I had never touched a single monkey island game.  I have now played them all.  This is exciting.
 
I apologize for how this appears to be a very loose collection of thoughts.

Your excitement is understandable, and it's fantastic what Telltale has accomplished.
