Hah! 6 years gap! And here I am with a mere 1 year gap... Potentially, an Infernal Machine texture upgrade for the characters could be excellent. The textures are very good in the game anyway, but they don't look so nice in the cut scenes when chara...  [Read More]

Nice work, Alex IDV. I decided to have a quick go as well and here are my crappy results: http://mixnmojo.com/temp/2011/Image1.jpg http://mixnmojo.com/temp/2011/Image3.jpg Not good for printing, obviously, though maybe someone will want those for...  [Read More]

Jeff managed to trick some LucasArts people into believing that Mixnmojo was a real website, and, as a result, we now have a preview of the Monkey Island 2 Special Edition on the LFNetwork! http://mixnmojo.com/news/e3-2010-LeChucks-Revenge-SE If yo...  [Read More]

It's odd that I found the controls (mostly) fine in GF, but I had more of a problem with them in EMI. What was the difference? EMI perhaps had more areas that you could bounce off of (like in the LUA bar) and could you run inside in GF? I can't remem...  [Read More]

The art style for the first Monkey Island SE was designed to look a bit like a children's storybook... this is actually not to do with the way the game is aimed. The series, and the first two games in particular, very cleverly play with the idea of c...  [Read More]

Welcome to the forums, rafster! There's really so much immense potential in Star Wars games that LA isn't exploiting. Would it really hurt to make a real Jedi game in the vein of the Jedi Knight series and not TFU? Or a first-person shooter like Rep...  [Read More]

@ChAiNz.2da: It's widely agreed (well, amongst Monkey Island fans) that Monkey Island 2 is not just better than Monkey Island 1 (which is saying a lot), but that Monkey Island 2 is also one of the best games ever made. We're all in with a treat with...  [Read More]

I haven't played it before! But I have been wanting too! What systems is it for? PSN, XBLA, Mac, iPhone, and PC (digital download). I think Monkey Island 2 is one of those games that people have been meaning to play because it's so famous, and so h...  [Read More]

I use a wheat pillow. Does that count?It doesn't count as a hotty botty, no, but it counts as something warm and cuddly under the blankets. I'm a bit concerned about microwavable wheat pillows, though: do they hold the heat in for long enough? Also,...  [Read More]
