DeadYorick Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I learned about Monkey Island through Grim Fandango. But I have a question. The monkey Island series are more then 10 years old. So where they great games and worth while to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Yep. Seen as on the same level as Grim Fandango by most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aticus Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Monkey Island series are all worth to play...big dose of humor there IMHO the first 2 sequels are the best,and funiest Things I allways love in MI are sword insults,but a shame they didn't show on part 2,but still lots of fun...spitting contest etc... The 3rd part is also cool and graphics are nice...plot is very funy and puzzles are cool... The 4th part is cool,but all is in 3D and you dont have point n'click sistem,that's a shame But i recommend to play all 4 parts and enjoy one of the best lucas games of all time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Superb, Terracentral. They formed a lot of the basis for Grim Fandango's gameplay. Monkey Island is seen as the best adventure game series ever made by more people than Grim Fandango is, even though I personally think Grim Fandango has the edge. But with that said, I couldn't possibly choose between them. Monkey Island is more legendary than Grim Fandango, though. It's a must-play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urluckyday Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I wouldn't say that they are as good as Grim Fandango, but they're excellent games worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadYorick Posted February 2, 2008 Author Share Posted February 2, 2008 What do you think of the Monkey Island series compared to other game series's that Lucasarts has created? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urluckyday Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'd say 2nd after the Indiana Jones games that LA made (if we're talking strictly series based games)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 The only adventure game I've ever played that's better than Monkey Island is Grim Fandango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadYorick Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 How is Monkey Island compared to the various Star Wars games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fealiks Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 MUCH better. Star wars games are good, but monkey island have all the great fantasy/stoyline they have and a lot morew. and they are really funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchythesamurai Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Yeah, I liked the Monkey Island games (maybe not four) more than KOTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fealiks Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Yeah, so did I. The kotor games could have used a LOT more work though. I think that Mass Effect has just about fixed it, now they just need to use that to make a new kotor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadYorick Posted February 16, 2008 Author Share Posted February 16, 2008 Do you think Monkey Island should be remade as a series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 What's with all the questions? Is this some kind of stealth interview? If you're interested in the Monkey Island games, go play 'em. You're unlikely to regret it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Monkey Island is one of the greatest video game series ever. The first two are the best, with the second being my personal favourite because of its absolutely EPIC ending. The third was pretty cool too, but the fourth was majorly disappointing. Really, you're missing out on some of the loudest laughs of your life if you haven't played the Monkey Island games yet. Do you think Monkey Island should be remade as a series? While I wouldn't mind it if its done, it would lose that beautiful pixellated charm of the originals. Really, those are experiences that leave you in a sea of nostalgia.

Joshi Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Were they made today, the only real difference would be in the better graphics, otherwise, things like story and gameplay would pretty much be the same as they were pretty much perfect back then. Should they be remade? In my own opinion, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
