Can I get a Fuck Year?

Post by seraphssavior »

Well...to all adventure game fans:

We're not getting just one...but two:

http://www.lucasarts.com/games/monkeyisland/

That's right. Motherfucking Two Monkey Island Games.

Well...let's just say that this news excites me more than any man or woman ever could.

I am afriad by the news.. It is a Lucas owned company we are talking about. That has been bad news for other successful IP by them.

I am just being cautious here... It could be great, but I am not counting with that. Remakes have a very low hit rate with me.

The original version is also included, and you can switch between them at any time during gameplay...not to mention that they got Dom to voice Guybrush again...so...I've got high hopes for both.

You know what?
With this and last year already being a shitty game year for me I honestly don't know if I should be happy with this news or not.

The impact of having everything I liked being turned to shit.

If they only touch the graphics department, I'm glad for the remake.
As for Tales of Monkey Island, I'll let someone else be glad for that.

I dunno, on the one hand I thought Sam & Max seasons 1 and 2 were pretty great. On the other hand it's Monkey Island without Gilbert or Shafer... so yeah...I dunno.

btw did you mean fuck yeah? because I don't know what a fuck year is.

I'll play the remake, definitely.
Full voiceover with (most of) the original cast, graphical improvements, ability to switch to the original graphics, same story, same dialogue... That seems pretty good to me :)

Gilbert was consulted during initial development, though I don't know about Schafer...and Fuck Year is the appropriate expression...long story.
