New Monkey Island game

Post by Noolah » 05 Jun 2009 14:29

How the hell did they sneak this one past me. Tales of Monkey Island. Ordered it as soon as I found out. Gutted when I realised I had 32 days to wait and not 2 days, as it's only June.

The "episodic" adventure games have really taken off, whats next, Grim Fandango ?

I loved the original monkey island games, lucasarts made the most amazing games.

Think I have pretty much all Lucasarts adventure games still. Not some downloaded crap but proper go to store and buy in a cool cover stuff. Games like those are rarely released now. Good old times

It gets better. They're releasing an updated version of the original. I think I've just creamed myself.

Lucasarts will also sell all its old games (including my fave The Dig and the two Indiana Jones) on Steam!
For those who don't have SCUMMVM :)

Tales of Monkey Island: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal is bloody brilliant. I'm still as crap as ever at Monkey Island games, but this is tru to the series. Although the control system is a little fiddly. It's not point and click, rather using some strange on screen "compass" as you move the mouse around, or use wasd. Other than that, it's fantastic.
