The Official Monkey Island thread.
 

"Iron Maiden! Excellent! ...I have no idea why I just said that."

Don't remember much of the first two but Curse was great but the fourth one was pretty lame with the 3D.

Kool! i didn't think you would actually start this thread (ok maybe i did :D )

TSOMI is my fav as i too have fond memories of this game, did you manage to finish this without cheating? there usually comes a point in these games where i get stuck and after trying to every combination of using items together i had to look for some help, i don't think i have played 3 TCOMI so i might have to track down a copy. i also have EFMI which was ok but i prefer the old 2D games to the new 3D ones.

will there ever be a monkey island 5?

what other games can anyone recommend that are similar to the MI series?
they don't make games like TSOMI anymore do they? this was the golden age for gaming if you ask me



anymore Monkey nuts out there?

i'm the only one out of my friends who actually like these games they all think it's shit

Well, I think this thread will mostly rely on memories of Monkey I and II ...
I think I finished both without cheating, the only adventure game I distinctly remember I needed to search for a solution for was Sam & max (the old 2d one, not the newer episodes) ,when you have to recover something from the giant ball of wool.

back on topic:

maybe in 2015


Almost any LucasArts game will do the trick: Day of The Tentacle, Sam & Max, Dig...god I love those classics.

Don't forget the amazing indiana jones and the fate of atlantis.

dumb spielberg should have made a movie out of that instead of that crappy skulls thing.

i might have to check these out but do they have monkeys and pirates in them? :rolleyes:

i go through wierd stages with computer games, at the moment i can't be bothered with them at all also i lack the spare time i used to have when i was unemployed. the only games i have bought in the last 5 years have probably been the GTA games for PS2, i would like to get the new GTA game for the PS3 but will not buy a console purely for 1 game and blu ray player, maybe if they dramaticaly come down in price i might think about it,

anyway back to Monkey business



i need Grog

how it all began:


ready for a special trip?:

Not the best, but the soundtrack was awesome (Gone Jackals).
