Udvarnoky Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 We've already discovered the fish from the AMIGA version, but there are other differences in this game too, especially when you compare all versions to the CD-ROM one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Ok then. In the ega/amiga versions the lookout's coat is blue, in vga/vga-cd its red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 i've olny played the CD and PC floppy disk version, so please list some more for my interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huz Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 In the PC[-CD] version of MI2, the party guests say stuff to each other. In the Amiga version, they don't. Also, I'm sure Elaine fails to say all that CURSE crap at the end of the Amiga version of MI2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted March 5, 2003 Author Share Posted March 5, 2003 The Lite version of the game, which is absent in CD-ROM versions (unless accessed through SCUMMVM, which shows that Lucasarts hacked their own copy protection) contains some stuff that is simply not in the hard version. For instance, the celan, white shirt (obviously). Also, when you saw of the peg leg, the man of lower fiber cries for Muenster Monster's help, whereas in the Normal Mode it cuts after he notices the leg gone. In LeChuck's Fortress, you can just ask Wally if he has any Ideas and wizzes on the candle:) I noticed that the CD-ROM version is missing some small lines too.

C Shutt Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 The door to the Scumm Bar kitchen looks different in the CD version as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 Originally posted by Udvarnoky The Lite version of the game, which is absent in CD-ROM versions (unless accessed through SCUMMVM, which shows that Lucasarts hacked their own copy protection) yes, they did, they found that they didn't need the lite and hard versions nor did they need the copy protection, so instead of taking it out completely, they just reprogrammed the game to skip past it, but smummVM brings it back again.

ATMachine Posted March 5, 2003 Share Posted March 5, 2003 Pardon me for asking, but what's the deal with the fish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 This: In Monkey Island 1: Amiga A500 - There was no cloud floating over Melee Island during the opening credits (although there was on an A1200 (which had more RAM) oddly enough). The same goes for all the "parallax" objects, like the chandelier in Elaine's Mansion. Amiga version / EGA & VGA PC versions: There's an extra line in the voodoo lady's shop that was missing in the PC CD version: When Guybrush looks at the statue he says: "Looks kind of like an emaciated Charles Atlas". PC CD Version: Lack of smoke coming from Captain Smirk's cigar. EGA (16 color) PC version: When Guybrush first walks on to the dock (after first talking to the lookout) the sun is setting (instead of it being night in all the other versions). EGA PC Version: Because of the 16 color limit (I presume) all of the closeups of the characters look a lot more "cartoony". When the graphics were revamped for a VGA version they became a lot more realistic. PC VGA & CD version: For some reason Guybrush has an extra pixel underneath his nose that bugged the crap out of me when I first played it on a PC! It always looked like, well, snot to me! I think he looked 'cooler' in the Amiga version... anyone else anal enough to notice this besides me? Monkey Island 2: Amiga version: There's also a few guests missing at Elaine's party in the Amiga version. And YES! The "curse" line that Elaine says at the end of the game isn't visible -- but it IS there! (If you check the code via ScummRev.) The game actually fades to black before you can read it -- DOH! Plus there's a ton of differences in music and sound effects that everyone already knows about! ~ Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 ah, now it all makes sense. everyones always talking about the curse line at the end, but i'd never seen it. now it makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 Plus in Monkey 2 on the Amiga I don't remember the lightning behind Guybrush when he digs up Largo's grandfather's remains. ~ Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATMachine Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 In the EGA version of MI1, when Guybrush and Elaine are featured in the close-up at the end, you can see different colored glows from the "exploding-LeChuck fireworks" reflected on their faces. I guess this detail didn't quite look so good on the portrait-like closeups featured in the VGA versions, so they scrapped it. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Shutt Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 The meat in the SCUMM Bar kitchen also looks different in the CD version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted March 8, 2003 Author Share Posted March 8, 2003 In the CD Monkey Island 2, the line "Maybe I shouldn't have done that. He looked pretty steamed." was removed after guybrush has the bucket o mud fall on largo's head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Wow yeah! I remember that line in the Amiga version. How weird they should take out! ~ Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smith Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 Is it actually REMOVED, or is it still in the scripts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonkeyGuy Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 And in a recent interview with Dave Grossman, he said that when you blow up the dam in the Amiga version of Monkey Island 1, there is a small chest that fly over Guybrush. In PC Version a rock fly over Guybrush. Dave said that this chest contained the secret of Monkey Island. Who has saw the chest in the Amiga Version? I didn't play the amiga version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 Originally posted by smith Is it actually REMOVED, or is it still in the scripts? it's still ni the scripts, i played the CD version with scummVM recently and it played the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted March 10, 2003 Author Share Posted March 10, 2003 Wow, why would they take the SECRET of Monkey Island out of PC versions? Hmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I think he was joking but I'll check that chest thing out! ~ Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smith Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I don't remember the chest in the Amiga version, but it's been a LONG time. Maybe the rock was the secret of Monkey Island in the PC version? Nice to know it's not so much a case that the line was taken out, as just misplaced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted November 28, 2003 Author Share Posted November 28, 2003 Originally posted by smith Nice to know it's not so much a case that the line was taken out, as just misplaced I guess I need to check again.

Guybrush91789 Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 has anyone played the SegaCD version of MI1, what are the differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahnee Posted November 29, 2003 Share Posted November 29, 2003 Originally posted by Udvarnoky In the CD Monkey Island 2, the line "Maybe I shouldn't have done that. He looked pretty steamed." was removed after guybrush has the bucket o mud fall on largo's head. In the Mac version of MI2, that line's still there. So's the "I hope LeChuck hasn't put a SPELL on him or something" line...the screen fades to black, but the text hangs there, ominously, for a few more seconds (it plays after a handful of the credits, but before the full credits on the black background run, if I remember right).
