Brushguy Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I will gladly join this movement, but what are we going to do first? I'm not afraid of Lucasarts if I can get away with a 6-part Monkey Island fangame 90% as good as CMI. I've done everything so far. -------------- I've signed the petition 20 times (which now counts 4112 sigs). I've e-mailed twice. I've sent a written letter. I've pledged to myself to hide all Star Wars / Lucasarts games behind the shelves at the supermarket. Finally, I also pledged that if I lived in San Rafael, I would not be afraid to march inside the building and complain. ------------- I've looked at Steve Purcell's comment on this disaster (news on samandmax.net and mixnmojo.com ). He was involved on this project, so if there was a definite reason for cancelling, he would know. Somebody should e-mail to Mike Stemmle, the director, because this might be an April Fool's joke. Stemmle's a big joker, and if this gem really was cancelled, they'd give a better reason than "underlying economic differences," or whatever they said. Oh man, if it is a joke, I will go outside and dance in the street in my underwear, yelling with joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinkie Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Yeah, it's a publicity stunt, I'm sure. <-SARCASM If you go to minmojo.com you can read what Steve Purcell himself has to say about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerno Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Originally posted by toenail1 hmmm, that really wasnt a eulogy, a eulogy is speaking good of somebody (doesnt have to be when their dead), that was more of a "lucasarts you suck you SOBS" kind of speech Well, as a non-native English speaker I had to look up the word I was searching for. I was looking for the word used to describe a speech at a funeral, because that was the general direction I wanted to take with the mail. I wanted to express my feelings that with this decision LucasArts has died for many many fans and I wanted to talk about what made the company great when it was still alive. Just like in a real funeral eulogy (is this even the correct term?) Towards the end though I kind of lost my train of thought and started rambling. Oh well, I don't think it came across as harsh as you put it. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samandmaxfiend Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 steve purcell is extremely disappointed with the decision..he said the game was awesome..keep getting people to sign the petition..keep e-mailing them..do it for steve! we gotta have his back for all the joy and laughs hes given us... and the guy who lives near lucasarts..just go and picket with your friends..even if its just you guys..lucasarts will kinda realise .. "hey this game actually meant something 2 people so that some1 has actually bothered to picket" ring the local news station n try 2 get em down there 2,... we just gotta keep sending them messages whatever way we can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toenail1 Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Well, as a non-native English speaker ah, i see but i wanted it to be harsher, i was just saying that a eulogy would be JUST about sam and max, not lucasarts, but while you were going for it, you shouldve stuck it to those (hmmm whats a good word that wont get me banned...)

Canine_Shamus Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Lucas Arts had better release another statement soon 'cause if they don't, it'll look even more gutless then they do now. They NEED to mention something else, instead of just ignoring us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jade wizard Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I don't understand? Is it a money thing or something. What am I saying, of course it is. I used to be about the the games man, they were what really matered. Then the fans, I hope thy haven't forgotten us. Sigh, they just don't get the message, WE NEED THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam&Max4ever Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I don´t think the lousy Star Wars game went so well, thats why they cancel all these games now, Armed and Dangerous didn´t go so well either, i actually think they ARE going bankrupt... And Sam & Max would be their saviour, they just don´t know it I also wrote emails, signed petitions, don´t think it will help, but if we don´t rise up and yell we wont be heard, so keep yelling, and REALLY boycot future releases, unless S&M2 are released. I pray for that it is an Aprils fool... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushguy Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Yeah, the comic is a broken image, so... I removed the comics because I was sick and tired of SyntheticGerbil's constant insults towards them, and I paraphrase, "the word is they cancelled the game because of your comics." But I forgive you. braindead u me and brushguy should be the beginning of the team I will gladly lead this movement, but again, I ask, what are we going to do first? And that petition is way over 5000 signs. How much are they aiming for, anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyntheticGerbil Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 More than half a mil, I'm sure. Ponce De Leon? Anyways, let's all change this thread into a discussion about the music for the Kyrandia games. Find the MIDI's and rip the true music from the third one. Be in fantasy bliss. See the theme that opens up in the first one pretty much covers up any faults you may find in the game. The music sets the setting best, on your set, go. The music wasn't as spectacular in the second game, but I found it kind of suting most of the time. And it had better tunes than the first at certain parts. Now the third game takes the cake and writes the F word on it in tacky green icing. See the game is kind of choppy in interface and figuring out. I absolutely hate the Isle of Cats and the music accompanied there. But other than that I found it a wonderful whimsical whopping wolly mammoth of a game. I hear dogs can eat wolly mammoth meat and not die because it was still frozen cryogenically like a super ice box from the past. The end part of Malcolm's Revenge was the most atmospheric I've ever seen. Now if only someone could tell me how to get all 911 points in that game. I don't think it's possible.

Skinkie Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I never played the third one, and got only mildly far into the first two? Am I missing out? Is my life incomplete? Maybe this can tell you how to get all the points. Maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SyntheticGerbil Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 No that list doesn't help. I don't think it's possible to get all of the points. I think it's supposed to be a joke, because you get "MacGyver" points and "Entrepeneur" points or maybe even "Social Deviant" points. Still I want all 911 of them!

dcroeser Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Thought you guys might find this interesting even though it was 2002. Its a poll on the LucasArts website.
