Sam & Max on 360? Sounds good to us
Episodic PC game Sam & Max is being rumored to make an Xbox 360 appearance. It began when a listing for a 360 Systems Programmer appeared on Telltale Games’ official site the other day.
A couple of the position’s specific responsibilities include migrating core components of a PC game engine to the Xbox 360 as well as modifying and supporting existing art and production paths to accommodate Xbox 360 production. Telltale added that the applicant should also possess a love for adventure games.
Online site Gamespot tried contacting Telltale and was able to speak with one representative. No magic beans were spilled, but the employee admitted that they’re continually evaluating new platforms:
We do not have any official Xbox project announcements to share right now. We’re huge supporters of digitally distributing episodic content, and this has been working very well for our current Sam & Max series on the PC. For a potential Sam & Max Xbox project, we’d certainly look closely at a downloadable digital solution like the Live Arcade.
We just reported the other day that the fourth episode of the game was just released over at GameTap.
