Sam and Max - Image 1Everyone knows that a pilot season for a TV series is crucial for its survival. Success usually means that there will be a green light for a second season. That's exactly what's happening to episodic game Sam & Max by Telltale Games and GameTap as they announce the upcoming second season.

In its first run on the PC platform, Sam & Max won the hearts of critics with its cleverness and genre-busting presentation. With creative missions, weird humor and fun mechanics spread across several episodes, the game prospered and the demand for a second season became evident.

GameTap Vice President and Creative Director Ricardo Sanchez says "GameTap and Telltale successfully proved the idea that games can work in a TV show format."  He adds "The Sam & Max episodes continue to be among the top titles played at GameTap and we expect that Season Two will be an even bigger draw."

Season Two will have Sam and his partner Max visit areas previously unavailable in the game's first season. This includes the mysterious diner Stinky's which was unavailable throughout the initial season. It's hard to wait while imagining what's cooking in there.

Though the second season has been confirmed, there's no specific launch date revealed by the developers. We'll update you for more on this quirky prospect.
