If your PC has 3D at all, it ought to be able to handle this, although the cinematics may be a bit jerky and take longer to load. My 5 year old PC with integrated Nvidia 6100 handled the game perfectly. My netbook can handle the graphics.

He was going crazy about how great the game was. If I hadn't known he gave this a 6/10 already, I'd've been surprised, too. He definitely did not explain why the game is barely better than the usual game. But even then 6/10 is only slightly above average. He was going crazy about how great the game was.

To him, 6 out of 10 is a great game, just not amazing. Reviewers tend to give a 6 to a game that's no good. I remember him reviewing... What was it, Alpha Protocol? He gave it a 4/10, but he said that the game was only slightly worse than an average game. For most people, a 4/10 means the game is an abomination.

The series Sam and Max was not a walk in the park, trying to figure out all of the puzzles and problems. Now this dosen't make it bad, but as this game shows its the story that is worth playing the game, not the problematic conundrums they give you. So yeah, you're right that most of Tell Tale games are known for their puzzels but I wouldn't go as to say that they are rediculously easy. I agree, but also disagree.

Tell tale continually write, animate and code the games between the gaps of the episodes release. They listen to the feedback on the forums and sometimes make changes if the fan feedback is asking for particular things. For example, during the monkey island release, the fans were very vocal about asking for when Murray would be returning to the game. They had originally planned his role to be smaller but because of fan demand, they increased his role. So, yes the episodes are released separately in order to get them out sooner and this means that they can listen to the fan feedback and make changes to the game if the fans are asking for aspects to be expanded or included.

You rave up and down that you love it, you love it, you love it. You go a little into how you can't believe an episodic game can be done and still not released all at once, then you cite only a few mistakes and say you'd never REALLY cite them because you make mistakes like that all the time in your videos.... Then give the episode only a 6.... Nothing in your review warranted a 6. Nothing you said pointed towards "give this a 6". Then you cover your tracks with "Well maybe I'll review them all and give the overall review on an average..".. Great so you just gave this episode a shoddy review before deciding "Well this isn't even the full game.." The episode deserves more then this at least a point or two more, specially after all your stupid raving over it. I’m sorry Joe but this review is for lack of a better term stupid.

Nothing in your review warranted a 6. Nothing you said pointed towards “give this a 6″. Then you cover your tracks with “Well maybe I’ll review them all and give the overall review on an average..”..
