Recordkeeping: Sam and Max Hit The Road COMPLETE

There was a time I could recite this game from memory and while that time is past (I actually found some dialogue while playing that I hadn't seen before, yay!) I still love it up and down the block. This was one of the cornerstones of a young sqrl's personality, and ... y'know, while it hasn't aged so well ("laugh at the freak" humor doesn't, nor do some of the casual one-off lines, and the game's largely an all-guy sausagefest) it still FEELS funny deep in my heart.

It's really, really late-nineties take-nothing-seriously comedy though. I'm gonna outgrow that entirely someday, aren't I?

So I'm AWARE of the flaws in it, and I love it anyway. I badly needed some mental comfort food, so I loaded this up again.

Plus it "counts" as new because I haven't played it since I started recordkeeping.

So do all the other Lucasgames.

Expect to see THOSE float by at some point now that I've gotten MT-32 emulation working. Fancy-ass MIDI!

Highway surfing was definitely one of those ways to contemplate what to do next in the game. Although we never could get past level 10.
