Thrik Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Beyond the post I just made on Mojo, I think the only thing I can really add is: wow.
Frenkieee Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Holy crap! Pizza demon, giraffe woman.. this is awesome!
Conrad Tuakin Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Thanks for the heads up, it looks awesome. It’s great to still be getting new things after all this time.
Du Man Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 talk about a walkthrough! lol p.72, "To protect this document, please restrict your fallen tears of joy to this box."
VampireNaomi Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 Man, I almost missed the whole thing. I only visited the website to get the patch since I suddenly felt like playing the game again and noticed the mention of this. I wish that Manny's brother segment had been in the final game. It would have brought even more depth to Manny's character and the dream-talk puzzle sounded like it would have been fun to solve. I guess the bit might have felt out of place in the actual game, but it doesn't stop me from desperately wanting to play it.
King Dando Posted November 14, 2008 Posted November 14, 2008 *curses* It's gone! I forgot to save a copy to my hard drive too. Dang

Dang Once something is online, it can never be taken down for good. There's a link to it in the comments to this post. EDIT: Wow, Du Man! That's an awesome cake! I would never have the heart to eat it.

James Isaac Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 I've hosted a copy on the DOD... that isn't likely to cause any legal problems, is it?
Thrik Posted November 15, 2008 Author Posted November 15, 2008 LucasArts made Schafer take it down, so if they catch you they'll probably do the same. For this reason I've opted not to mirror it anywhere at the moment on the LFN — although I'll stealthily slip it up once they've forgotten about this. Up to you if you want to take the risk, really.
James Isaac Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 Ah ok - I didn't realise LucasArts actually asked him to remove it. For that reason I took it down for now, for the safety of the site
VampireNaomi Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 I just don't get what they thought they would achieve by that. The game is ten years old and that document could have done nothing to hurt LA - there was no controversial info or company secrets, and since they will probably never release anything new GF-related again, it couldn't have hurt any sales either. If anything, I think the document would have brought positive attention to the game and reminded people that it exists. If I were LA, I'd be happy to keep the fanbase active in case I ever wanted to make more money from GF again.

LucasArts actually noticed and admitted Grim Fandango was/is their intellectual property? And they actually cared enough to file a DMCA take down notice? Now THAT'S and anniversary present. Man, makes you wonder who and how many they have continually scouring the net for this stuff. Maybe they plan to incorporate some this material at some future date into, dare I say, a sequel?
urluckyday Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 This post is a rip! lol What a tease Timmy.
Twizman Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Pretty crazy isn't it!! Wow, it's a lot of work. I don't know if I could do that, lol
Frenkieee Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 No you couldn't. No offense, but there is one man, and one man only, capable of such a thing. Yes, it's THE TIM!
