They've been REALLY bad at actually including the cards with any of their Lucasarts releases - I'm guessing because they don't do them for recent releases, just for whatever preorders are left from before they stopped. For pretty much all of them I've had to request that they send a trading card. But when I asked about Sam and Max they said it didn't get one, apparently due to "there being no official numbered release for Sam & Max Hit The Road". Not sure why it's any less official than the other Lucasarts PC boxes but *shrug*

The larger ones contain a readme file along with the game files. That seems to be the only difference. And the folders contain the same game files as the zips. There's no secret director's cuts that I can discern!

The actual contents of the USB is a bit funky! They seem to have used an almost 60GB USB stick, and filled a chunk of it up with including the game three times, twice in zip files and once in a folder! This seems... an odd thing to do. I noticed also that the Windows DVD (although not the USB) has this random extraneous shortcut file sitting in the folder IDK, I guess it seems a bit careless? Especially combined with the kerfuffle around the Loom USB!

Did you hear anything back about this one?

One thing I did notice is that this box doesn't have the "A comedy/thriller by Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick" blurb under the title - which seems a bit of a shame
