DF Game Club: Pajama Sam 3 (with Dave Grossman)

[Cheeseness]

DOUBLE FINE GAME CLUB: Pajama Sam: You Are What You Eat From Your Head To Your Feet (starting 4th of January)

The Double Fine Game Club is a community run weekly event where interested gamers play through and come together to discuss what they do and don't like about a particular game (sort of like a book club, but for games). We usually aim to play one or two hours a week, and we normally have somebody streaming the current game so that those who don't have the game or don't feel like playing it again can still feel involved.

Discussion takes place here in the forums and on the Double Fine Game Club home page. Game Club is a very informal weekly chat, and everyone is welcome!

Previous game: Host Master & Host Master Deux

Next Game: Fester Mudd: Curse of the Gold

I love this game! I got my copy from a box of Nesquik.

You ARE a box of Nesquik.

I wish there was some kind of legal way to acquire these games digitally. Watching a live stream is the next best thing I guess.

[Cheeseness]

This is definitely one of the downsides of covering older games, but on the other hand, I think maybe part of this helps preserve awareness of and enthusiasm for unavailable games, and that feels valuable.

Also, if things work out well, we may be getting Dave Grossman to join us

Edit: Confirmed, yay!

I got mine from my dad when I was a kid, but for those looking to get PJ Sam 3:

Physical copy here (amoung other places): http://www.amazon.com/Pajama-Sam-What-From-Your-Head/dp/B00004NHKM

Digital copies:

Apple has the first 2 games available for ios via itunes here:

Here's something most interesting that I just discovered: It seems that Gametap.com has the first 4 PJ Sam games (as well as a few other humongous entertainment games) available as a part of its subscription for digital download!

So for those still wanting to play the game legally without buying a disc copy, here is an easy alternative!

Oh sweet, well spotted, Permafry. I hadn't thought to look on GameTap (and that didn't show up in any search results for me). I'll get that added to the original post

[Syd]

We'll be live soon! Come join us!

[Cheeseness]

Woo, that was a fun session. The stream archive and chat log are up in the first post.

Huge thanks to Dave Grossman for joining us this week!

[Cheeseness]

I just got word from Dave that he's hoping to join us for this weekend's session as well. Huzzah!

[Syd]

And that concludes our final Pajama Sam 3 session! The archive and chat logs should be up shortly.

[Cheeseness]

Today's stream archive and chat log are up! Thanks to everybody who joined us and a big thanks to Dave for sharing his time with us again.

There were some interesting anecdotes that came up in the chat today. Not the least of which was Pajama Sam's original conception as Pumpkinhead Boy, which was immediately followed by the appearance of a pumpkin headed character in-game who was apparently a reference to that

Next week, we'll be starting on Fester Mudd: Curse of the Gold!
