Oh my lordy Weirdo where have you been?? We haven't seen you for months.

Well I have been about, here and there you know the score. Went to the Assassin's Creed event in London (part of the London games festival).

As well as the awesome C12 in Milton Keynes (my love of Erik Avari!)

then recently a LAN tournament at the Alt-yr-yn campus set up by the Games Society, and another console tournament last saturday.

Also managed to go to the Super Mario Galaxy launch which was a good laugh.

But none of that compared to the best news of all.

NEW S&M SEASON!!!

As a teaser for all us hounding Sam and Max fans, Telltale decided to release us an episode before Christmas; and rightfully so.

In Episode 7: Ice Station Santa Sam and Max have to literally save Christmas.

What can I say? Their newest episode is as great as ever; I must say the writing seems to be a tad different, may have some extra writers on board perhaps. But the overall set up has been greatly improved, with a hint system for those not used to Adventure games, a tutorial for likewise, and even the ability to have Sam run as opposed to that slow plod he used to do

Hell they even managed to stick the C.O.P.S in there as well as another song by Jared-Emerson-Johnson. Not to mention the awesomely different boxing minigame they included as an integral part to the episode.

All-in-all it was pretty damn awesome (as you may have guessed) and I just cannot wait for episode 2 to come around!
