The Monkey Island SCUMM Bar: More Monkeys?

Ok, so we already know that there in all likelyhood will be a Monkey Island 5 some time in the future, but check out this interview with Tom Sarris if you still need additional confirmation. A quote:

I'd say so. I'd say that they're extremely viable properties for us to tap into in the future, in the same way that we're doing with Sam & Max. There's no reason why we can't adapt those to another generation of games players. I think there are stories that still remain to be told within Monkey Island and Grim Fandango.

Good news for sure.

"I think there are stories that still remain to be told within...Grim Fandango"

WORST. NEWS. EVER.

I think a game set in the Grim Fandango universe could work, as long as they stay away from the original story. Of course a brand new, original game would be better, but hey...

Mistery - You should post only in your own articles.

Maybe maybe maybe. I'll wait for the press release.

I think that Grim Fandango without Mr. Tim Shafer is a HORRIBLE idea. I think i would have to personally go over to the Ranch and straighten things out.

LOL... sorry Erdan, just really wanted it... and had lots of money to waste. Just got back from Birmingham and wasted like

Erdan: You shouldn't post at all.

Posted Nov 17, 2002

Yeah... I should've known you'd spend all day online making sure noone would outbid you. If only I had the patience, I could've waited 'till the last minute.
Ah, well... More money to spend on whisky!
Mys-mys: Pffffffffffttttttt!

I guess you could have put on proxy-bidding up to like $400 to make sure you won. But still, would it really be worth it?

Posted Nov 17, 2002

No it wouldn't RemiO... That's alot of whisky!

Posted Nov 17, 2002

hmmm, just read the interview...

In some point I feal sorry that their new games are gonna be more action based. All the die-hard adventurers will be disappointed in some point I think...

As for MI-5, I really don't know how a game like that would be made. I hope they do it properly - I hope they'll listen to fans :)

Erdan... Erdan.. erdan... spend all day in front of the computer?!? sheesh! I do that as a job. I was actually out on the town when i won that auction! Like remi said... PROXY-BIDDING! Silly sea urchin ;p

Posted Nov 18, 2002

Yeah... should've known. OK, no hard feelings. I'll run an internet search now... maybe I'll find one just like it at 5

Posted Nov 18, 2002
