GOG (formerly known as Good Old Games) have signed a deal with LucasArts to
re-release some of our favorite video games of the 1990s. Sam & Max Hit the Road is on the short list with others of that genre and period presumable slated for future release — like Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle. The background music of these games were in a way the soundtrack of my childhood. And I can’t get enough. No matter how cheesy it might be out of context.
The jazzy MIDI-tastic vibes of it all make me want to fire up my parents’ old
Mac Performa 6300, which I’m sure my dad still has somewhere in his basement. Look, it’s not the music of high art. But if you were as big of a fan of 1990s LucasArts games as I was, this track will definitely hit all your nostalgia buttons. [YouTube]
