Remake of Monkey Island revealed for XBLA

Brand new episodic Monkey Island adventure revealed by Telltale for WiiWare and PC.

Let me say: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!1

Can't wait. I always wanted to play Monkey Island but I only heard about it a few years ago, long after it went out of production and stopped being compatible with all of Windows' updates over the years.

I hope people like it and adventure games start making a comeback. I loves me some adventure games.

 

[Dark Helmet]

Revenge Of The Nerds is stil on G4 here. E3 started ?

 

[Tron Bonne]

In about 10 minutes

 

[Electro UK]

10!? There's 25 minutes till the MS conference starts.

 

[Tron Bonne]

Yeah, the conference won't be starting for a little while, but the E3 coverage from G4 starts..well now I guess, it just started on my end

Telltale is bringing back the Adventure genre, through Sam & Max, Wallace & Gromit, Strongbad, and now Monkey Island.

Oh what's happening?

 

[Tron Bonne]

Nothing, there are talking about MS's gaming history and in the next 20 minutes they'll probably speculate what we'll see at their conference and then briefly go to the game floor to see what's coming up later today

 

[Dark Helmet]

Oh what's happening?

They were comparing sales with the PS3

 

[Electro UK]

Hmm, I'll stick with The Simpsons till it starts

It´s great...but i bit stupid at the same time.
So, they are making the remake for the XBLA, but the episodes for the Wii?
The smart thing to do is, take the episodes to the XBLA, or the remake to the Wii...or both.
But hey, at least both are going to the PC...

 

[Tron Bonne]

Newer or older Simpsons?

I'll be getting the new stuff for PC but I'll probably get the XBLA version of the original.

 

[Dark Helmet]

ODST will kick All Fronts ass due to Epic's Epic's Failure's

 

[Electro UK]

Newer or older Simpsons?

Well I haven't seen it before. Marge and Homer find out they knew each other when they were young.

 

[Brainiac 8]

Why is it stupid? Strongbad sold like crazy for Telltale.

 

[Isildur´s Heir]

The stupid part is the episodes not going to the XBLA nor the remake to Wiiware.

 

[Dark Helmet]

What a day E3 day & 1 vs 100 US beta tonight

 

[Brainiac 8]

That I agree with, they should share the content.

Has anyone played the Wallace & Gromit yet? Is it worth purchasing compared to say Sam & Max and Strongbad?

 

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

Not as good as Sam and Max, but pretty good if you like those types of games.

 

[Fading]

I gotta be honest...the MS conference is putting me to sleep. I mean I like the Beatles, but 30 mins and a huge press release about starting 5 mind early for Rockband. Plus Yoko . On a funny note, could Paul and Ringo have cared any less about the game or being at E3?

 

[Tron Bonne]

Well, MW2 is looking pretty fantastic up there now.

Though, I agree CB, both of them seemed less than enthused to actually be there, and barely stayed five minutes

 

[Fading]

Just curious , but how is Modern Warfare a world premiere never seen before title? Pretty sure my last Gameinformer talked about it and showed screenshots. Unless they mean as in being playable. It's also multiplat isn't it?
