xGrimx Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 I would have to say when Manny is getting ready to board the Number 9. Although it sort of sucked, just because a great game has just reached the end. But still a great ending!
Lemon Head Posted December 13, 2001 Author Posted December 13, 2001 but should they be learning it from you schmatz?? hehe
Yoha Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by Lemon Head you wanted me to do it - admit it oh, yeah, right, i just woke up that morning and said to myself, "self, I think today would be a wonderful day to mud wrestle with some poor lucasarts forum person. I really hope that someone instigates one and that Lemmy is standing by with a portable mud ring..."
Natty Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by raVen_image Take heart Yoha, Natty, and the rest of you ladies. If you took me seriously and are worried, you ladies can always perform certain exercizes to firm up. We, men can't do anything to add ...erm... length. It doesn't suprise me that the women here can joke about this, while the men have been noticably quiet. The men are all: "Erm...could we get back to the subject please?" It's been my observation that women are braver than men in almost all things. It's no accident that Elaine was written as a mightier pirate than Guybrush. In life, women are stronger-willed and they merely allow the men to think they're the ones in charge. We stumble through life, guys ...and women pick up the pieces of our mess. From your mothers to your lovers ...thank goodness for women. The differnce is women aren't fussed about what size they're boobs are... guys often worried if they're 'big enough' hehehehehe Anyways, back to the subject
Ender Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by Lemon Head I'd like to take this moment to annoy everyone with my pickyness, the dialogue actually runs SAM: Percent sign, ampersand, dollar sign MAX: and colon, semi-colon too! METAL BENDING GUY: What the ***** are you doing? SAM: swearing in long-hand, asterisk mouth sorry everyone Ah of course, now I remember! ScummVM only recently made S&M playable, so it's been a while

I'm not worried about size. Not me.
Sarah Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by Bobbin My favorite is in Monkey I sland 1 if you steal the idol before defeating the swordmaster. (You can't defeat Carla first or this won't happen). Anyway Elaine comes to rescue guybrush and their is the love sequence where they names like Plunder Bunny and Sugar Boots. That was great. Totally... I LOVE that part. The music is so cheesy, it's hilarious.

Swordmaster Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 The favorite (or at least the most atmospheric) moment must be from the opening scenes of The Dig, when the sun comes into view from behind the asteroid, Low says "May all your prayers be with us" and Michael's stunning music goes crescendo. I get shivers from that part every time. *thinks about it* *shivers* Another great one is in Grim Fandango: the transition movie between the first and the second year, when the camera first tracks up the restaurant tower, stops in the sky and then tracks back to the casino with excellent cinematic scoring from Peter is a true winner. (And the best cutscene in the game, IMHO.)
Lemon Head Posted December 13, 2001 Author Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by Swordmaster (And the best cutscene in the game, IMHO.) Mine would be either that or the bit when manny scythes the flowers off salvador's body (someone else said that i think) but that bit is truly amazing, the music, the slow-mo, ahhhhhh....
Skyfox Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Joonas!!! How ya doing buddy! Ok, I got another fave moment, I know most of ya think it's corny as anything... but in The DIG when Maggie Robbins comes back at the end, with that smile on her face... awww man, I was so happy! *sniff* And I think someone already mentiond the Plunder Bunny scene from MI1.. which you don't always get to see.. true classic! All the Best The Emotional Scouser
JiveMonkey Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 What is up with that really sketchy scene in GF where Manny goes off with glottis to the scene of the contamination in the diner in the beginning? I remember it being all sketchy and Picasso-like but then they never did that again for the rest of the game....just doesn't really make sense from my recollection.
Ben Whatsisname Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 MI1: The machine MI2: Pumping the monkey MI3: Listening to Mr. Fossey speak MI4: Monkey Kombat MM: Solving the Ted puzzle DOTT: Freezing the hamster Indy3: The crypts Indy4: Playing with the flashlight Indy/IM: The dialog box asking me if I'm sure I want to quit FT: That cool part just after the iMuse setup, but right before the end credits. GF: Year 2 S&M: Electrocuting Max BTW, I tried that pencil trick and my man-boobs could hold two pencils, three pens, computer mouse, five sheets of paper, and a turkey leg. Guess this means I need to play less video games, eh? Just kidding. I have no man-boobs - just wanted to make the girls feel better. (I am happily married, so that is *NOT* a pickup line.)

Go here to get it here That site is rather out of date, mind - the latest CVS tree has pretty much full support for DOTT, MI1 and MI2 (cd versions only) and fairly complete support for S&M. The Dig is the latest work in progress, you may have more luck than some. ScummVM makes it possible to play your old lucasarts scumm games under Linux, BeOS, Windows 9x/2000/XP and even on your iPaq PocketPC (forgotten the link to that one tho). Latest builds can be found here: http://scummvm.sourceforge.net/daily/ Note when downloading the windows builds - change the extension from .gz to .exe - they arn't REALLY gzipped.. [Edit: Actually, I just discovered the latest builds have music turned off. I'll get that fixed ASAP; if it doesn't work today, try tommorow :] -- End of far-too-long off-topic post --
Remi Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 Originally posted by Ben Whatsisname Indy/IM: The dialog box asking me if I'm sure I want to quit Amazing! That's my favourite part too.
Darnn Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 No no, I quite like the ending cutscene, in which the dialogue goes something like this: "I'm not really a communist. I just pretended to be evil." "Really? Great! Let's go drink vodka!"
Trapezoid Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 Hey, Infernal Machine had some cool levels. Too bad my CD 1's missing, I can only play half of them. And my Grim CD 1 is broken. Since I don't have it installed at the moment I can't play any of it. What is is with me?
telarium Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 My all-time favorite moment is in Monkey Island 2 when you put the rat in the vichyssoise and have the bartender go ask the cook about it. The dialogue is just hilarious after you hear the barkeep take a sip and the little rat starts squeeking. "OH MY GOD" followed by, "you're fired" and "look at all the hair! And what's this stuff!? I'll never get rid of this junk." And then he comes back out of the kitchen, places the bowl on the bar, and tells Guybrush, "here ya go."

telarium Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 Oh yeah, I guess I should actually try reading the whole thread or something. Although this one is up to 90 something replies.
test Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 From CMI: - I make my living off the hard work and talant of others. - You're a project leader on a computer game?
jimmycracker Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 DOTT: Switching the flag design with the tentacle chart. Pure... BRILLIANCE!!
Jayel Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 whoa, this is like a thread before I was born. My fav LA moment? when Boston has to cut off Brink's hand with a dull alien jawbone. I laughed my ass off. Who would've guessed The Dig would have so much humour in it?
