Sam and Max: Save the World is a remaster of the 2007/08 adventure game. It's a comedic "point and click" style affair where Sam, a six-foot-tall dog in a suit, and Max, a hyper-kinetic rabbity thing, take on cases both supernatural and absurd. The remaster has a pretty significant visual upgrade from the original and also has character control (i.e., instead of you moving a mouse cursor around you move Sam around. This was a god send for me). Some dialogue has been changed, and one character has been recast. In other words, a few words have been changed out of literally thousands and somebody sounds different from the original release. Personally, I find the review bombing to be a gross overreaction (and ironically oversensitive). Your particular mileage may vary on these matters, but as someone who played the original release of this game and the remaster: I'd pick the remaster every time.
