MrGenuchi Posted November 19, 2000 Posted November 19, 2000 Sorry about that, but I didn't really consider that a spoiler. Maybe had I said what the secret was, then you could by all means dump rotten banana peels on me I was merely answering a question posted in this thread ------------------ "Goodbye cruel adventure game!!" - Guybrush Threepwood
Tull Posted November 19, 2000 Posted November 19, 2000 MI4 doesn't reveal the secret of Monkey Island, Mr Genuchi The game designer's are playing a little trick on you with that one and if you think about it you'll see why...
Guest Guybrush112 Posted November 21, 2000 Posted November 21, 2000 Yup, no secret of monkey island yet. Have you ever givin thought that MI4 is the last installment. I mean, Guy and Elaine are stille married, I can't see LeChuck coming back after this death, Herman Toothrot is revealed, already met Carla and Otis and Meathook. What to do? ------------------ "Mortal fool! Release me from this retched tomb! I will hide your keysin your upholstered furniture! And never more will you be able to find socks that match!"
Blue_cheese Posted November 21, 2000 Posted November 21, 2000 I accept your apology, I apologize for being so bastardly, sorry, I tired that day and I just got back from work.
MrGenuchi Posted November 21, 2000 Posted November 21, 2000 No problem Blue_Cheese What are you guys talking about? How could that NOT be the secret of Monkey Island at the end of EMI? (I mean, the cutscene's name says so!) Okay, so explain to me why it isn't the secret. ------------------ "Goodbye cruel adventure game!!" - Guybrush Threepwood
Peg Nose Pete Posted November 22, 2000 Posted November 22, 2000 Right I'm new to this and I haven't even got a reasonable quote for at the bottom of my message. I chose peg nose pete cos' I'm hunting the bastard and cos' you've all take up all the other names. RIGHT LISTEN UP! I don't know about all this elevator stuff at the end of MI2 (Mission Impossible 2? No!) But all I know is that it took me a HELL of long time to complete that game (On both difficulties!). But I remember getting to the end and getting the "E" ticket and thinking that the only possible use for it would be that it is a ticket or p*** to another dimension. That's the only thing I could really figure. CMI I think kinda ignored the MI2 ending or changed our perception of the ending with it's beginning. WHY DID RON GILBERT leave! Didn't he want to make anymore? I know he didn't really like CMI. I prefer the new Guybrush 3D look to that of Guybrush in CMI. Didn't think he looked as good as he did in the previous 2. Weren't you all a little dissapointed when you opened you EMI box and only saw 2 disks! I wanted at least four! CMI was too small, it didn't seem as big a MI2. I'm going to stop now as this message is too long. ANSWER MY QUESTIONS!
Guest C Shutt Posted November 22, 2000 Posted November 22, 2000 I've just read this thread for the first time. And I have an answer to a question. Someone (I don't remember who) asked what the significance of the "E" ticket was. Simple. At DisneyLand, an "E" ticket was a ticket that would allow you to ride a particular ride all day. Hope that's put your mind at rest, whoever you are. ------------------ "You want me? Fucking well come and find me, I'll be waiting, With a gun and a pack of sandwiches." -Talk Show Host, Radiohead.
Tull Posted November 22, 2000 Posted November 22, 2000 Ron Gilbert had a tantrum on leaving Lucasarts, which is why he ended MI2 the way he did. He couldn't conclusively end the series as he didn't own the rights (Lucasarts did) but he felt that by giving such a wierd ending, he would kill any chance they had of sensibly continuing it.
gamegeek Posted November 26, 2000 Posted November 26, 2000 the place at the ending,why does it look like booty island? ------------------ im a game maniac
Pomy Posted December 4, 2000 Posted December 4, 2000 Ohh, Boy! Dam'ya guy! How could ya do that? Lose a CD of LucasArts game???!!! Can't U get it from yar friends? Gimme an Email and I'll mail to ya the whole game, 'fya wanna have it. My mail addy is: WANNAWATCHYABLEED@HOTMAIL.COM YOHA! POMY
mr show Posted December 6, 2000 Posted December 6, 2000 the ending to part 2 is a joke. at the end of the first one elaine says she has a husband, where'd he go? it was a goof. i doubt ron gilbert ended the second one in that fashion because he was angry and trying to kill the series. it clearly states that guybrush is under a spell. the ending to part three was great, but i wish i'd been able to free wally.
Tull Posted December 8, 2000 Posted December 8, 2000 It's a fact that Gilbert was trying to kill the series, not conjecture. And the husband Elaine mentions at the end of SOMI isn't a good... she's referring to the possibility of marrying Guybrush.
Largo LeGrande Posted December 15, 2000 Posted December 15, 2000 Ok, here's what "Pelit" magazine telled 'bout MI2 'n' da ending: "After a long and joyable adventure, the enemies met each other in underground tunnels. LeChuck lost the fight, but the last thing revealed that this all (MI and MI2) had happened in two little boys minds. The day in carnival has just started and the pirate-gaming was over. "At least Ron Gilbert thought so. But LEC disagree, and the story continues" B.T.W "Pelit" magazine gave 81 points o' 100 to EMI. ------------------ Y'all know what I'm sayin'?
ZainGadol Posted December 18, 2000 Posted December 18, 2000 Lechuck's revange ending sucked big-time!!!
Natty Posted December 30, 2000 Posted December 30, 2000 maybe the real secret of monkey island is that herman toothrot is infact elaines grandfather? then again who knows? besides, it's only a game all this fussing over it is making me depressed, here we all are fussing over which episode has the best ending blaa blaa blaa blaa, and i've only played le chucks revenge once so i cant comment- but im gonna sit here and just tell everyone to relax a tad, please? for the sake of guybrush?
Spiffing Blue One Posted December 31, 2000 Posted December 31, 2000 at the end of LR elaine says "What's taking Guybrush so long?" and not "I hope LeChuck hasn't put a spell on him." at least on my copy... explain... ------------------ That's the second biggest monkey head I've ever seen! -- Guybrush
NiKo Posted December 31, 2000 Posted December 31, 2000 you know why the MI2 ending was the best? its the only ending that kept you sittting on the chair thinking you'r still suposed to continue playing, until you realize "hey its IS over!?" ------------------ [This message has been edited by NiKo (edited October 06, 2001).]
Guest The Feral Chicken Posted October 7, 2001 Posted October 7, 2001 Ah...remember this, Guybrush122? ------------------
Al-back from the BigWhoop Posted October 13, 2001 Posted October 13, 2001 should he? does this topic have some importance that ji dont kjnow? ------------------ Artificial intelligence is the stupidest fucking bastart that ever shoed his funny face in this forum. COPY MY SIG NOW BITCH!
Weakling Posted November 2, 2001 Posted November 2, 2001 As far as this lovely topic goes: (a) i dont care what CMI had to say about MI as i just care about what Ron Gilbert would have done. Though i still follow MI, i just take it as an interpretation and extension of Ron's MI. (b) i like mi2 ending as it is strange and opens up alot of possibilities as this topic has proven <IMG SRC="http://www.escapemi.com/forums/smilies/cwm20.gif" border=0> © god i'd kill millions to know what ron would have done.
MadMonkey Posted November 2, 2001 Posted November 2, 2001 I think the secret of Monkey Island is that there is no secret exept that one ------------------ I want my tree!
