Yes. And in all the games, Guybrush is obviously NOT BREATHING AT ALL. Watch his chest. No motion! It seems Guybrush can hold his breath for quite a bit longer than 10 minutes....  [Read More]

Oh, and in CMI there aren't any huge pixels anymore. And everybody actually talks instead of a bunch of text just popping up above their heads. And what's up with the whole voodoo thing? Sounds a bit fictional to me. I'm sure that contradicts somethi...  [Read More]

How about in MI2, when it all turns out to be a dream? That's a pretty long and detailed dream, including much humor and dialog that a young kid wouldn't be able to dream up. As much as it was hinted towards in MI2, it seems Ron hadn't even gotten th...  [Read More]

Plus, a lot of adults have office jobs. With computers. So instead of doing work they visit boards and stuff. Not me though, I'm just 15 and don't have a job. I could if I wanted, but I just don't want to waste time behind the desk at Blockbusters a...  [Read More]

Whoops. :) I guess I was wrong the first time. I'm sure if they came out with a terrible Monkey Island shooter I'd be pissed. But if they came out with a new MI with MI2 level complexity and humor, people would still find excuses to hate it....  [Read More]

Maybe so, maybe so. But you can't deny that quite a few people love EMI (and CMI). I don't like it because it's Monkey Island. I like it because it's damn funny. If you don't see its humor it's your problem....  [Read More]

Originally posted by remio I was sorta sick of this discussion about three years ago, so I'll just say I generally agree with most of Trap's statements. Just for the record. What about my Tim Schafer statement? I thought that was probably sacrel...  [Read More]

Jesus! Ron isn't a god. He's not as cool as Tim Schafer is. Meksilon, you seem to be obsessed with the first two games and you won't give the third and fourth a break. CMI was a beautiful update to the Monkey Island mood and style. EMI, yes, didn't r...  [Read More]

On a side note, I hope for the next game, LEC uses non-photorealistic rendering to make a 3D Monkey Island that looks 2D. Yeah, or just the next game period. Cel shading is cool. But it looks best with black outlines....  [Read More]

Originally posted by Snapcase I loved EMI myself. But yes, it has a different type of humour to CMI (which I thought was boring) and to the first two games. It's inevitable with different writers and different designers. CMI managed to capture a lot...  [Read More]

MI1 and MI2 aren't a blinding light of goodness you know... People compare CMI and EMI to MI1 and MI2 without thinking about MI1 and MI2 enough. I theorize that if CMI and EMI were released in '90 and '91 instead of MI1 and MI2, with appropriately ad...  [Read More]
