You probably also saw it referred to in Eurogamer's interview with Grossman (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/a-tale-of-monkey-island-interview), Gabez: ... he came down and spent the better part of a week with us, just tossing around ideas. We bou... [Read More]

Elaine can't act... argh :( Still, I'm LOVING it so far! Really, that bad? It's an actual screen actress doing her so she ought to be pretty decent, and I thought she did a good job in the intro trailer — does it get worse? Guess I'll find... [Read More]

I kind of suspect the servers will be so thrashed by downloads that it's infeasible to expect to play it 'today' if you're in Europe. Not too bothered myself as I should be able to let it download while I'm at work and then it'll hopefully be ready... [Read More]

At the end of the day, it's not Tim's decision anyway. He just put the reality into a more digestible format (he was joking BTW): their game engine wasn't built to run on a PC, it'd require a monumental amount of testing to get the port to work on al... [Read More]

It's not really that short considering it's all they'd have been doing for eight working months (something like 1200 hours). It's not like they just do tidbits of it here and there after work like we fans do.... [Read More]

I would like Spring, but thanks to the torrents of rain the season usually brings to the UK I end up really jaded by the crazily unpredictable weather by the end of it. :D Last week I was walking home, and it literally went from a sunny day to slash... [Read More]

Does anyone have the latest UK copies of PSM3 or the Official PlayStation Magazine? Both have previews of Brutal Legend in and it'd be nice to have scans for the gallery (http://www.brutallegend.net/assorted-images/). I spotted PSM3 myself while in... [Read More]

I... uh, what Udvarnoky said! I definitely have no real interest in seeing a different Monkey Island 3, as I love the Curse of Monkey Island just as much as its predecessors. I think it took the series in a good direction despite the mental ending o... [Read More]

I think co-op is very likely, as that's a really big thing on consoles right now. It'd also be the kind of thing that'd slot most easily into Brutal Legend's existing gameplay I imagine, and indeed perhaps they designed the game from start to finish... [Read More]

Nothing to it nowadays Gabez if you have an NVIDIA or ATI card, although it was harder in the past. Now all you literally need to do is go to Add/Remove Programs, uninstall the drivers, reboot, and install the new ones via their installer. Well wort... [Read More]

SiS is far from a no-name brand, so I wouldn't expect an actual dodgy card based on that alone. With that said, graphics cards are far from their main niche so it's possible it's just not too well optimised for a lot of games and is better suited to... [Read More]
