Okay, hands up those of you who still have Christmas shopping left to do. And while we're at it, hands up if you've ever been known to get yourself a little "early Christmas present" when you're out shopping. Be honest. I know I'll be typing the rest of this with one hand in the air, and I suspect I'm not alone.

What does either question have to do with a game giveaway for Ice Station Santa? Simple. Now you can be rewarded for both guilty admissions at the same time, and free of charge to boot! Yes, courtesy of Telltale Games, not only are we offering downloadable copies of the first episode of Sam & Max: Season Two to three lucky winners, we'll also provide those same three winners with a free gift copy of the game to give to a loved one (or a random stranger, if that's your thing).

But what's this, you say? You've been in a hypnotic trance and remember nothing since the completion of Season One? Then it's time to bring you up to speed! Ice Station Santa marks the debut of an all-new season of episodic adventures for the Freelance Police. In this holiday-themed installment, the jolly old elf has hunkered down in his workshop while deranged presents are being delivered to unsuspecting boys, girls, and Presidential hyperkinetic rabbity things. Naturally, it's up to Sam & Max to head to the North Pole to get the to bottom of the mystery and save Christmas as we know it.

If it seems a little cheap to give a gift that costs you nothing (and let's face it, it is), just remember that it's the thought that counts! And thought is exactly what's required to successfully answer the three questions below, which you'll need to do to be eligible to win. Well, thought or easy access to our review of the game or the Sam & Max website to look the information up for yourself.

The contest will run for one full week, ending on Sunday, December 23rd. Winners will be notified by email, and activation codes sent juuuuust in time for Christmas. So get that entry in today!
