Well I guess we now need two copies. And it does indeed have a Tales cover! https://mixnmojo.com/media/galleries/Tales-of-Monkey-Island-Press

To continue the Brutal Legend 15th anniversary retrospective in the news well into the new year, I present to you an original German marketing brochure for Brutal Legend, along with a poster that has less marketing icons along the bottom than maybe a more prevalent Brutal Legend poster. More below - but hidden to not overload the thread.

I was curious if any mojo-er happened to have a copy of the Game Developer magazine May 2010 edition, which features the post-mortem of "Tales of Monkey Island", and would be willing to sell it to me. (Maybe @Jake ??) I've got a magazine cover to celebrate all of the Monkey Island games except this game, and I'd love to have it for my collection. I don't think my current one would pass a keen eye. Try and spot it.

Congrats @Jake ! I've received a shipping notice from Limited Run Games and PurpleDot that Sam and Max Hit The Road Collectors Edition PC is shipping!

I am happy my marketing campaign has begun and you have all been responding well to it. I am now officially announcing my fangame "TEMU: Tales of Escaping Monkey Usland", coming 2025.

Now that "Temu" has so many forum threads, it may be mojole-answer-eligible. I'll be starting with "TEMU***" as soon as I can.

@ThunderPeel2001 I just gave you a rare and expensive forum trophy.

It's an honor to be nominated. I feel like I could... like I could... like I could... TAKE ON THE WORLD!!

Brutal Legend merchandise (pins) have recently been made available for purchase. https://gear.xbox.com/products/br-tal-legend-4-pin-set?_pos=1&_psq=brutal&_ss=e&_v=1.0

I really enjoyed IGNs Indiana Jones game history and retrospective. You can too! Ask me how! https://youtu.be/JyHLYLHuCSA?si=KcBTKNFQzFH3pt4G

If you run it at minimum specs, is the resolution 320x200?

You appear to have done an extensive amount of work and research on this, and it is important. Have you seen the similar topic on this within this forum from a year ago? https://forums.mixnmojo.com/topic/200716-lucasarts-international-releases/

I finally made time to properly scan the "Computer Games Magazine" Issue 118, to also include the two pages I forgot to upload here a year ago. How can I get these moved over into the Mixnmojo Media Database? Escape from Monkey Island (Press). Bonus scan: Playstation Magazine Review for EMI.

Adventure Game Hotspot just released a podcast discussion of Vampyre Story 2 with the developers. https://podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/a-vampyre-story-a-bats-tale-discussion-interview/id1638963659?i=1000677119802

How has it been a whole year since I was digging up these posters?? I still have two more versions to send to @Laserschwert A now-7-month-old baby sure does make time go by very fast. Still haven't yet made time for Return to Monkey Island! Whoops

Yeah, but what if it is Strong Bad that gets to their email request first?!? 🗑️

I did buy the Shivers game and preordered that expansion pack of that second Shivers Kickstarter. And I've had grand plans of using their "blank" character sheets to create a Mona character for the Shivers game, so that would be how I would/should celebrate the anniversary of that post.

Whatever a "jumbo" steelbook DVD case is, it's not a proper PC Game Big Box. Shame. And the journal is blank. The globe is 11" and has a secret compartment. $189 on the Bethesda game store. https://gear.bethesda.net/products/indiana-jones-the-great-circle-collectors-edition

Just found their big news post on Steam about the changes to this remaster. Along with the addition of point and click interface, about 6 bugged out lines of dialog were restored. Read on for more goodies. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2648050/view/4324104099033012358

I fear it a pipe dream (not Pipe Dream) that Tales of Monkey Island remaster would be next in line for remastering.

Thank you so much for your extensive work on this huge project. The whole retro scene owes you a debt of gratitude. Years after fixing some officially, you've come back out of nowhere to bring all these LucasArts titles to a playable state on new machines. It's really striking and incredible.

I believe you can actually play this game in both first or third person.

Did you check the other DOTT boxes? Like Xbox or other? You can search at the top of the first link I put in my post above. The DOTT Xbox collectors box is still in stock and has like all the same extras.

Missed your chance to get some primo/questionable boxed LucasArts LimitedRun Games releases?? Monday, May 27th 10am ET, they are seemingly clearing out their extra stockages of LucasArts games as well as 21 pages of other inventory. Forget all those others; here's the ones we care about: * Day Of The Tentacle PC (Xbox version) * Full Throttle PC box ("special" dark art edition) * Maniac Mansion NES * Maniac Mansion NES Premium edition * Monkey Island Collection 30th Celebration (with typos) * Monkey Island Anthology Upgrade Kit (to fix the typos and give you ReMI ( @Remi ) ) * Secret of Monkey Island (Sega CD) * Return to Monkey Island (Xbox disc edition) * Sam and Max Save The World (PC) (Switch) (Switch Premium) * Sam and Max Beyond Time and Space (PC) (Switch) * Sam and Max This Time It's Virtual (PCVR) Honorable Mentions: * Lair of the Clockwork God (PS4 and others) * Knights and Bikes (Switch) This is not an exhaustive list and I got lazy with the non-boxed copies for sale and the Star Wars releases (sorry).
