Head on over to www.telltalegames.com and check out the info about the new Monkey Island 5 part series that will be released monthly starting July 7. I've already preordered my copy!

Long live the early Monkey Island games, way ahead of their times (Y)

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.

Seems so, since the franchise is two decades old :p

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.

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.

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.

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
