+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted September 20, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted September 20, 2009 This video is an experiment done for fun. It demonstrates how original Monkey Island 2 backgrounds look and feel in a modern 3d game engine. The sets were built using Maya and then exported into Cryengine's Sandbox editor. This is a followup to my other Monkey Island 2 videos that showed how to "convert" 2d concept art into 3d scenes using camera projection techiques.

qdave Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Very impressive indeed. But mi2 was sidesroller and wouldnt work as fps, unless they make sidescroller with cryengine. Nice experiment still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted September 20, 2009 Veteran Share Posted September 20, 2009 I must say, that was quite impressive. CryENGINE 2 still looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyLock Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 NO! All the 3D Monkey Island games sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Descartes Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 I must say, that was quite impressive. CryENGINE 2 still looks amazing. Of course it still does, the gaming industry doesn't move on THAT fast :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-KJ Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 I have never played Monkey Island, but this 3D preview oozes with atmosphere and style! Something that is very lacking this gen :( This gen feels very stale when it comes to consoles compared to last, especially if you're like me and you like games like Ratchet & Clank, Psychonauts, Sly Cooper, Jak & Daxter, etc. I understand that those games don't sell as well as shooters and sports games. It's such a shame, but I guess it's what companies need to do in order to survive now. I think the freshest/stylistic game this gen is probably Bioshock & Mirror's Edge.

Geoffrey B. Veteran Posted September 21, 2009 Veteran Share Posted September 21, 2009 anyone else seen any other videos that people have redone older games with the crysis sandbox? i would love to see more like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted September 21, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted September 21, 2009 NO!All the 3D Monkey Island games sucked. No way! Escape from Monkey Island might not've been great but it was no worse than Curse. And Tales of Monkey Island is shaping up to be as fun as LeChucks revenge. It's brilliant so far.
