Of course that's easily fixable by going about 20 years into the future when MI5 may actually exist. I'll lend you my Delorian.

 

And jtsword, both those games had voice acting in them.

Well any versions of the game you're likely to buy now would be voice acted, unless you bought the old floppy versions off of eBay for nostalgic reasons (or because you'd like to say that you own the floppy version)

That would be one big installation if they did remake them. The amount of dialogue in the first 2 games is massive compared to the others. I wouldn't like them to remake them, I like the voices as they are in my head, not the ones in EMI and CMI.

i need some help, if any of you own a copy of day of the tenticle, can you help me?!

 

Every time i try and load it up it always says

 

'warning: EMS only detects 2 megabytes'

And then stops!

 

What do i have to do to get it to work?

Ive downloaded scummvm, wat do i do now, i cant seem to add a game.

ive got the version of it with both sam and max and DOTT on the same cd. how do i run it through scummvm?

Posted

are you sure you put in the right location, it should be your cd drive (typically D:) followed by whatever folder the games in on the CD. That should work. otherwise, just download scummVM q+e and put it in the same folder as SCUMMVM, and then just run that.

They pulled off 3D really well, but in my opinion they are trying to make the game bitter and better and more hi-tech when the whole beauty of adventure games is their simplicity. And there's nothing like the feeling of moving the mouse a bit slower and discovering an icon ud missed!! Plus everything looks cuter in 2D. And in my opinion u waste too much time just making the character walk in 3D. Listen to the voice of the masses Lucas!!!!! PS I couldn't figure out how to add my vote to the poll-DOH! PPS WHEN is MI5 coming?? Can't wait!

Hmm, i prefer 2d pointnclick style, never liked much 3D adventures...Of course Grim Fandango is great, Broken Sword 3 is good ,EMI not bad, but 2d better.

I have to disagree with nearly everyone and vote 3d. Here's my reasons:

 

-Less realistic, not that monkey island is supposed to be but I personally like a game when it feels like you are the character, and this is more achievable in 3d

-Broken Sword 3- I loved this game more than the previous 2 broken swords and it pulled off 3d perfectly

-Reviews of the game would be low as the graphics score would pull then down

-Many people would be put off buying the game if it was 2d, hence low sales

-I don't think the 3dness was what spoiled MI4 as much as people think, it was just the lack of decent puzzles & jokes and a dull plot imo

It depends how they handle the 2d. If the in game graphics were of the same quality as these...

... then I think the game could create quite a stir. Just imagine playing that. It would be beautiful.

 

Then if we get Gilbert and co. back to work out some great gameplay, we'd have a winner!

By the way, if you haven't played BG&E yet you're seriously missing out.

 

Playing for the 4th time now, despite that fact that I've not once completed the damn thing (I get to the end fight, but i can never work out how to hit that eye when it starts hovering above you and I just end up being hit or clicking the dogde button hundreds of times.

 

But yeah, that would be good, the cutscenes were something special considering it used the same engine.
