Jeff Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Threepwood4life said: Can't wait to hear what you guys think of the new Indy game and the new Monkey Island games but I got a funny feeling that you aren't all big on the point n' click side of LucasArts which is a shame cause that was the golden era of the company.I think we did talk about Indy in episode 7, but you can definitely expect to hear about Monkey Island in a future episode now that it's back. I know not everyone on the cast is not big into LucasArts' adventure games but I'm a big adventure game fan and am super hyped about the new MI series.

Darth Groovy Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 The wait is over! Although it's been a wait, LucasCast HAS been putting in overtime to make up for it! This week Rogue Nine has put the finishing touches on Episode 7, and it's awesome so it will be up sometime today. Episode 8 was recorded impromptu to document Jeff's E-3 experience, and we plan to have that up midweek. Then as an added surprise we will have a nice lengthy special "BlooperCast" up by the end of the week. Thanks for your patience gang, and I hope you enjoy the fruits of our effort!

The sequels are great too and are a lot of fun and challenging. I can understand why you may say this as some of the younger generation today didn't grow up with Monkey Island and the other adventure games like a lot of us on here did but I'm glad its coming back cause it allows those who didn't play first time see it in a different light to what we did when first played them way back in the late 80's/ early 90's.

urluckyday Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Darth Groovy said: Also gang, sorry about the delay between episodes. Right now I am trying to recruit some stand bye podcast members, and extra sound editors so we don't have to keep rescheduling due to lack of participation. Summer is a funny month where you have multiple holidays, graduations, conferences, weddings, birthdays...etc. Our staff is pretty dedicated, but we still do this on a voluntary basis for fun, and sometimes often life gets in the way, and it becomes hard to get everyone together. We would have a pretty boring podcast if we just ran with two or three members. I understand...but what would Jesus do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Well... obviously the topic if the recent celebrity deaths is bound to come up... but a little time recognizing the current news in that regard wouldn't be a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 If you liked Monkey Island, you'll probably also like Grim Fandango. Good luck landing a copy these days though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edlib Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Grim Fandango is one of my top 3 games of all time... so I like it. I haven't played a MI title in years... but I'm really looking forward to the new ones. They are adventure games... so a lot of puzzle solving and character interaction. Not everybody's cup-of-tea... but the humor and writing in the LA adventure games was always more than worth the price of admission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I <3 Monkey Island - and all the cannibals too. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a huge RPG guy too. But I grew up with adventure games so I will always be a fan. Strangely enough, when the LucasArts adventures were new, I didn't even know about them. I played all the other popular adventure games like Myst, Zork, King's Quest, etc, as well as all the Star Wars games of the 90s, so it's weird that I never got word of LucasArts adventure games until I joined these forums.
