I actually had a dream about Rubecava... that's how vivid that place seemed. It was also the largest place... it probably took me atleast five hours to explore every corner. Not that the other years were bad, but there is no contest. Year two all the...  [Read More]

I agree that it would be hard to come up with a good storyline involving Manny that takes place after the first one ends. Perhaps someone in the Land of the Dead needs help and casts a spell that pulls the legendary Manny out of paradise. But perhaps...  [Read More]

I'm thinking about finally forkin over the cash to buy a console. I don't play many games.... basically just sports games and our beloved graphic adventures... so the number of games available isn't too important to me as long as the important ones a...  [Read More]

You know, I ordered the soundtrack from LucasArts not too long ago. Early this very year in fact. It was hard to find on their webpage... I don't think they actually had a link to the order page. But when I heard there was a soundtrack available, I d...  [Read More]

Well, a simple internet search reveals that Resurrection Blvd. is a series in its third(!) season on Showtime. It's about a Latino family in East L.A. with a boxing tradition. It airs Wednesdays at 10:45 pm est. Alas, I don't have cable....  [Read More]

Do you know if FT2 will use the Grim Fandango engine, or will it go back to SCUMM. I imagine they'll use the GF engine since that's friendlier to the consoles, though I wasn't terribly impressed by character animation in EMI (In GF, of course, it wor...  [Read More]

Thanks for the links. Can't wait to see the fruits of SJ's new direction. I hope Full Throttle II isn't TOO heavy on the action, but I'm not complaining....  [Read More]

That's great news! I haven't found any references to that news on this site... and I guess I don't really check many other gaming news sites.... do you have a link for an article about that? How many of the other games other than Full Throttle II are...  [Read More]

It would be pretty sad if Escape From Monkey Island was the last adventure game LucasArts put out. According to Amazon.com, Grim Fandango is #151 on the best selling games list, which is pretty damn good for a game that's nearly four years old. So I...  [Read More]

The Lost Souls Alliance! Surely, despite the tragic sprouting of Salvador Limones and not so tragic sprouting of Hector Lemanz, the work of the Lost Souls Alliance in the Land of the Dead is not finished. The sequel could follow a new soul (perhaps...  [Read More]

Until there is a new game.... and I agree with those who would worry that a sequel would have trouble matching up to the original... I think it would be cool to see some Grim Fandango comics published. I'd love to see a comic covering the years betwe...  [Read More]

Could they get Tim Schaefer involved? What has he been doing since he left LucasArts? I heard that many of the poeple involved in GF have now left LucasArts, like Peter McConnell, for example. I'm sure their successors could do a decent job, but coul...  [Read More]
