a_monkey Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 I bought a copy of both MI and MI2 off of ebay. The boxes seem to be original, but the manual for the first MI looks photocopied, and the disks are black color, with black & white labels. Can someone help me out? If these things aren't original, I'm going to put a negative for the ebay seller! Monkey Island 1 BOX Monkey Island 1 BOX LABEL - Label is not a regular stick-on label, the type is printed directly on the box. Monkey Island 1 disks - All disks look like this, with B&W label, with black color HD disk. Monkey Island 1 manual - Manual looks photocopied. Monkey Island 2 disks - Some disks are black color, some greyish color. Which is the original? Are the black color disks replacement disks? Monkey Island 2 manual - This looks like an original manual.
a_monkey Posted January 14, 2005 Author Posted January 14, 2005 Well after looking at the Lucasarts Museum website, it looks like I bought a "budget" version of MI 1.
scumm local Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 maybe its an actual pirate copy (also a good joke about it being a pirate game)
Udvarnoky Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 Yes, you have the budget edition of MI1, which is known for the weirdly white manual covers and generic-looking disk labels. Your disks all look legit to me, but I suspect that some of them are indeed replacements or are otherwise from another package. The ones with the LucasArts golden guy logo would be the newer ones. The color of the disks would have nothing to do with it. Your games look great.
scumm local Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 hey wadaheck im no longer a wannabe pirate ima ima monkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alien426 Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 Just shut up, turn around and walk. If there's a cliff, that would be cool. But I'll be happy when you're not around any more even without that bonus.

Scummbuddy Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 even if we got a chuckle, we wouldnt want 20 pages of single replies saying "Hey good joke." How old are you? 14? Did you just find out about the internet? You just come off a bit too anxious. Just calm down a bit. And NO double posting.
scumm local Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 hey thanks for the compliment about being 14 im flattered im 13 nope i didnt just discover the net its just usually this forums empty or my computer dont werk or let me in for ages so i post when i can yours sincerly scummlocal (13) ps :how th heck do you get ppl to treat you decent when your new?
Alien426 Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 You may think that people look at your post count to determine whether you're a newbie -- so you try to increase it. But that's just what makes you look stupid. Put some labor in your posts. Punctuation, spelling, grammar, structure. Make them readable!
