elTee Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 Dammit, I hope they end this series with the fifth, or it'll turn into Nightmare on Elm Street. Or Friday the 13th. 9Why are they always the horror movies?) Most hints seem to suggest that MI5 is the final installment. (In CMI Voodoo lady says she has a five game contract with LucasArts, and when Guybrush kills himself at the hotel he says he has potential for 2 more sequels - EMI is number 1...)

Trapezoid Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 I'd say yes... Not OH GOD YES, but yes. I'd be fine if EMI was the last game... I would've been fine if CMI were the last game if I had never played EMI. And MI2. Even MI1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoha Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 They have to end it with the 5th. The voodoo lady only has a 5 game contract, so she says in EMI. Guybrush can't be a mighty pirate without the voodoo lady! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted February 14, 2002 Share Posted February 14, 2002 Yes, just so long as its a point and click and not another crappy 3d game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telarium Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 I agree that there needs to be one more to finalize the whole thing. Find some way to defeat LeChuck this time so that he's done for good and give the series some closure. Also, kill Guybrush. Just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie3118 Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 I hope LucasArts milks the final installment of MI for all it's worth, and they take FOREVER to release it. I mean, come on guys - it's the LAST ONE. I was the suspense and excitement to build up. I've only played EMI about 4 times. The cds should be nearly broken before the next one is released. ~Eva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elTee Posted February 15, 2002 Share Posted February 15, 2002 STOP IT WITH THE '3D IS ****E' ALREADY!!! DID YOU PLAY GRIM FANDANGO?!?!? IT WAS AS GOOD AS THE ORIGINAL STUFF FROM THE EARLY 90'S!!! Ahem. I mean, I love and prefer point and click, but too everyone else other than us it will look like 'a crappy looking old game where you have to click the mouse to move.' Therefore, LucasArts will not make thier money back. Why do I have a sense of Daja Vu?? CMI was cool when I think about it. It has the best music, graphics and acting of all three, but its storyline is way back in #3. I love it (Love it love it love it) as an adventure game, but not as an addition to the Monkey Island series. Daja vu again - hey deja vu deja vu - geddit??

Gabez Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 Y'know, point and click CAN work in 3-D - look at Discworld Noir. And I think that if LucasArts DO make an MI5 they should make it more darker than EMI... still funny, just more serious in parts. Like mi2, which got really serious in the end and I think where adventure games really shine is that they can be funny at one moment and serious at another, depending on the humour, ofcourse.

Darnn Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 monkey island 5 yes or no or OH GOD YES or NO GOD NO which do you pick Any options which are not things I'd scream during sex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wossname Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 Monkey Island 5? How about Monkey Island Online! Come on, everyone's making massively multiplayer online games these days! Single player is so passee. Think of it... cruising around the islands of the caribbean, drinking grog, and finding treasure! Everyone's a pirate! Insult swordfighting (With language filters, obviously, to protect the kiddies)! Instead of killing the monsters by hitting them, every monster is a puzzle-kill, like making voodoo anti-root. (Okay, this started out as a joke, but I'm starting to think it would be pretty cool) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huz Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 Originally posted by Wossname Monkey Island 5? How about Monkey Island Online! Hah! I had this idea in 1994! Interestingly enough, it's kinda been done. A few years ago there was a text-based roleplaying game based around Monkey Island. I never joined in because all their plots were held at ridiculously late times (due to it being US-centric, as most things are), but apparently it wasn't bad at all. They struggled for players though - about 10 players max - obviously a pretty graphical game would attract more. I don't know how these MMORPGs keep their world interesting and fresh (they sound boring from the outset to me!), but this would be the hardest part. My own (poorly thought out) idea involved users dialling in to walk around the Monkey Island 2 rooms together, helping each other with puzzles and swordfighting and so on. Obviously this would get old pretty quick. There was a fairly long thread on the subject on the old SCUMM Bar message board, but that's long gone. Alas.

The Narrator Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 No , seriously , how could a 2d game be a bad game ? That's just nonsense. Anyone who played CMI knows how gorgeous and rich the graphics can be. Now imagine the same quality with today's standards. I just can't see why a «2d game is a step backward» idea is what most people think , are Disney's and Gibli's animated pictures considered as «old school» , come on people , a 2d game would be original , fresh and definetly demarking itself from the «standard First Person Shooter» Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elTee Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 I once embarked upon making Monkey Island 2.5, that was set between MI2 and CMI. It was all about how guybrush escaped from the carnival. I had planned to let you play as Herman Toothrot at one point, cos I have the story all written down. I stopped making it when it came to the, erm, programming. I can't do that stuff, you see. The graphics would have been great, cos they're just from MI2 anyway. Thats why I'm making the MIE instead of a game of my own - the graphics are already made.

Benny Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 Lucastones, we can only hope that one day my dream comes true and scummvm develops to the point to which it is a really good scumm game creation system. The day that happens im gonna gather as many people as possible and make a monkey island game, we can use ur script:D Oh and for the record, I loved Grim Fandango (4 years old now apparently -FOUR YEARS!?!?!). It was monkey 4 I was referring to in regard of "another crappy 3d game". The "3dness" and non point and click gameplay was too much of a shock to my nostaligic system.

Gabez Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Mi 2.5? Yeees, I bet everyone here has, at some point, pondered making that. Last I heard Haggis, Ed and some other geezer was making something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
