Episode 3 feels shorter than the others. Blogcritics is not sure if it's because the puzzles are easier or if there's simply less than needs to be done, but they were able to finish the entire game and get all 12 achievements in about three hours. For achievement-whores (you know who you are) that may seem great, but for a gamer looking for a fun adventure game, Muzzled! isn't the most sound $10 investment when the more robust Sam & Max games offer up five or six times the amount of gameplay for only twice the dough.
GamerZines: Telltale Games' Dan Connors has revealed that his company makes nearly 40% of its revenue from the various console platforms, proving that it's worth porting the likes of Sam & Max and Monkey Island to the PS3, 360 and Wii.
"We generally launch with one console partner during the run of the season, and usually does about 40 per cent of the revenue," Explained the CEO in a recent interview.
I love Sam and Max. I got the PC version but I caved in and also bought the PS3 version.
From Gamertell:
"Telltale Inc. today (February 11, 2010) confirmed during the Macworld 2010 expo that it will, indeed, be releasing games for Mac.
Even better, the releases begin today (February 11, 2010) with Tales of Monkey Island."
Games can also vote on the next Telltale series style game to be release in March for Mac.

Their games are actually episodic, so really, you'll be getting an episode. And, as they say, 'the first taste is free.'"
