Laugh out loud point-and-click fun.

User Rating: 8.5 | Sam & Max: Season One WII
I've never seen the enjoyment of sitting in front of the PC all evening after doing the same all day, so I am loving the slow emergence of point-and-click adventure titles on the Wii. Now we can spend a pleasant evening curled up on the sofa doing the pointy-clicky business with the Wii-mote in a sociable and comfortable way. (Hugh) Bliss.

The puzzles aren't that fiendish, but as we're relative P&C newbies that's no disappointment. The sheer joy of this game is the dialogue - some of it really is laugh out loud funny, with some nice lines in satire and general mickey-taking.

Others have mentioned the feel of watching a Sit-Com, and it has to be said that some of the dialogue interactions really do have that feel to it, and it all hangs together quite nicely.

Voice acting is spot-on, and some of the songs crack me up (little buddy). The special agents singing about War being good was a belter - music and animation both containing belly-laughs.

And as for Reality 1.0... I let a bit of wee out, I was laughing so much. :-)

The biggest bug-bear is the occasional tendency to clip off the final few frames of audio from a soundbyte which can be a bit irritating, but you can always trigger the thing again if you think you've missed something important (usually the punchline to a joke).

We are midway through the last of the six episodes as I write, and I know I am really going to miss my time in Sam & Max's weird, wonderful and sublimely entertaining world. I do hope there's a sequel on the cards.

(EDIT: And I've just learned there will be - YAY!!)

More fun pointy-clicky-Wii things, please.
