I laughed when Manny was talking to Membrillo and there was some mention of a 'belt-buckle with someone name on it' and Manny laughs and say 'who would wear a belt-buckle with their name on it-" and of course looks down and Membrillo is wearing... [Read More]

I don't understand why people need a sequel to this great game; chances are that a sequel could compromise the first game. Manny and Meche would not reappear in it, nor would many characters because they've gone on or been sprouted. There was an idea... [Read More]

I don't think theres a meaning as such- the fandango is a dance. It could be named from one of lines in one of the poems in the game; in the Blue Casket where Olivia says: "When last I held him to my breast But now we dance this grim fandango&q... [Read More]

Though I liked how you were thrown into different environments after a time-change ie Year 1-2, I would like to know how certain characters developed with Manny. I suppose Lola's death scene would have been more emotional had we known more abt her. A... [Read More]

One of the things that amazed me when playing Grim Fandango was not only the scale of characters and how they fitted into the overall plot of the story; but also with whom they sided (if anyone) and what their personal gain was in the Land of the Dea... [Read More]

Even though Lola was a minor character her death was still shocking seeing as we'd seen only one person before being sprouted and that was Don Copal and he got what he deserved; but Lola was trying to do some good for Max by exposing Nick and Olivia;... [Read More]

Welcome to the boards, indeed Grim Fandango is one of those few games you can play from beginning to end and enjoy over and over again. The characters are all unique and entwined into the deep, dark plot that you rarely see in Adventure Games. It's a... [Read More]

After playing Grim Fandango once again, I was urged to go to the Moon by the SS Limbo and 'use' it. To my surprise, Manny and Velasco have this haunting poem they receit each time when you 'use' the Moon. Like some scenes in the game it struck me- an... [Read More]

It's a game like no other really; a game that deals with the aspect of death and what happens after it. Those who come across this game nowadays though sort of bypass it for something else; a Command & Conqueor or whatever. Grim Fandango though h... [Read More]
