Monkey Island to XBLA?

[Pheebs]

Loved them all. But then I would. They're full of Pirates

As soon as I have some wonga, this is on the top of my list to pre-order. Top top top top top.

[Aboobie]

Not Monkey Island but ..

The Sam & Max Save the World achievements have been seen in the wild:

All 6 chapters in one game? Can't wait!

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *POP*

Oh wow. Monkey Island, Sam and Max... all we need is a new Day of the Tentacle release and life will be complete!

I wouldn't say no to Grim Fandango or Full Throttle either. And a Broken Sword trilogy would make me cry such tears of joy, they'd probably cure Cancer.

I almost mentioned Grim Fandango too. All the LA games are superb. A new or updated Beneath A Steel Sky would also be very welcome - it had a very LA feel to it but quite sinister.

If your tears cure cancer, mine will cure aids if that was announced

About a year or two ago I replayed Beneath The Steel Sky! The version I had originally (on the Amiga I think!) had about a gazillion disks and one was corrupted half way through so I could never finish it - it would always freeze just as I went into some dudes apartment on the lower level (I think I had to go retrieve a video from there or something). Was so satisfying to finally complete it.

I'm quite a fan of Simon the Socerer too

DOTT was probably my favourite though. Genius. I just loved Beeeeernaaard and Laverne and her funny walk

I loved Beneath A Steel Sky

Some nice bits here:

...At any time in the game you can press a button and Monkey Island will immediately switch over to the original, pixelated version running on the SCUMM engine...

...The game is now voice acted by the cast of The Curse of Monkey Island and the developers managed to put a key figure deleted from the original back in the game.

Spiffy, the dog at the Scumm Bar, showed up on the back of the original box, but had to be cut from the actual game due to space. Now he's back, though mostly as decoration.

Another neat touch: The loading icon for the game is the picture of a floppy disc.
