+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 2, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted June 2, 2009 At first I was happy, then I seen the artwork. IT LOOKS HORRIFIC. WTF IS THIS CRAP? Long live the early Monkey Island games, way ahead of their times (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raa Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Do. Not. Want. :no: But MI1 Special Edition - looks good!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 wtf...MI4 had better graphics....thats the sketchiest 3d ive seen the lawnmower man. ah I love these games but guybrush Threepwood in that pic just looks like he belongs back in 1999 there. Really hope thats like an alpha version piece of work. Whilst graphics are no substitute for a quality game and story experience in this case ive discovered the line to cross so that doesnt ring true for me.

TonyLock Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 MI3 was the best version. They killed it when they went 3D with MI4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gstar Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Hmm yeah I agree the artwork may take a little to get used to... but I'm still too excited with the fact that MI's back!!! :woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookie Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 MI3 was the best version. They killed it when they went 3D with MI4. Noooooo! Number 2 was the best imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bauhaus Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Agreed that, oddly, MI4 looked better. Still Im sure it will be funny, hoping is as much as the first or third ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slammers Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Who cares what the gfx are like, it's the gameplay the counts, the gfx don't look worse though take a look at the old one again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Anaron, you know that post in the TF2 thread? It's revoked, 'cos you've never played a MI game :p Nah, jk but they're proper classic games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 4, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted June 4, 2009 For everyone bitching about the graphics, what do you expect from an XBLA Game? A game that doesn't look WORSE from an art and style perspective than a game 10 years old. The art direction looks soulless. You guys must have misunderstood me, I'm not looking for 1080p ridiculous HD graphics, I'm looking for something that resembles Monkey Island better than the tosh on page 1. As it's an XBLA game it would of been nice if they stuck with the 2D/3D style of MI3, just gave it an HD remake That in HD would be gorgeous.

houlty Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 this is so disappointing... the worst thing the monkey island franchise did was go 3D. i just wish they went back to the cartoon style of the curse of monkey island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_Candyman Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Where are you guys getting the fact this will be an XBLA (Xbox Live Arcade) game from? I can't find that mentioned anywhere. Just the PC. And yes, I liked the style of MI3 better as well, but I'm definitely hopefuly for this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
