Last Friday Telltale announced it would release Sam & Max Save the World on Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) Wednesday, June 17. We now have confirmation that this weeks other XBLA release will be the ultimate nerdy card game: Magic the Gathering.
If youve ever made out with a girl you probably dont know what Magic: The Gathering is. Introduced in 1993, it pits two or more players against each other with customized decks of cards filled with monsters and spells. This XBLA version is subtitled Duals of the Planeswalkers and allows for competitive online play.
Sam & Max Save the World includes all six episodes of Sam & Max Season 1 in one download. These are comical adventures starring the crime fighting duo that rose to popularity in the early 90s.
Magic: The Gathering – Duals of the Planeswalkers will set you back $10. Sam & Max Save the World will be $20, which works out to under $3 an episode.
