Bunch of video's showing gameplay and a couple comparing the graphics

They haven't ruined it with the new artwork imo, looks good!

You're too young to remember when it first came out!

I think I had MK1 on 5 1/4 inch discs!!

But I only had the 16 colour version, I now have the 256 colour version and it's a lot better. The dialogue is one of my favourite bits of the game!

I absolutely adore all Lucasarts games, bar all the strategy ones as I find those boring (the only game of that ilk I liked was Civilisation!!).

New Monkey Island. I've already preordered.

I had an email about the plunder edition today.

I have mixed feelings about this. Escape and Curse weren't a patch on the first two.

Will · 02-06-2009, 21:41

Agreed entirely. I think Escape was pretty poor, certainly the control of the characters. The first 2 were absolutely flawless and no other adventure game has come close in my opinion.

Curse really grew on me. Having the normal and hard modes added a nice aspect to it as well - playing through a second time only to try something that worked before and didn't this time was both infuriating and joyful. Especially as you often had less in your inventory!
