 Posted: Tue, 13th Sep 2011 22:58 Post subject: M.O.N.K.E.Y. (Monkey Island Reboot) |
|
 |
| Quote: | “Time has moved on,” said LucasGames chief modernisation officer Ian Koticiello. “We’re big fans of the original Monkey Island(TM), we’re definitely paying as much homage to it as we can – bringing across the essence of the world, the core essence of what it is to be an inept wannabe pirate with a glock safe action pistol.”
M.O.N.K.E.Y., due in Q3 2012, “takes that viewpoint from the original game and zooms into Jack Threepwood’s head.” Featuring visceral pirate- and zombie-shooting action, a recharging Grog system and a extensive multiplayer mode which faithfully homages the original game by enabling gamers to take direct control over six beloved Monkey Island(TM) series characters in brutal deathmatch arenas, M.O.N.K.E.Y. brings this dark and gritty saga of high seas combat and undead horror to a whole new audience. |

No 4-player co-op, no buy! Also I've just read on Gametrailers that it won't have Kinect support, ffs

Bu-but...didn't they redo The secret of monkey island with updated graphics and voice-overs?
I thought that one was brilliant. ^_^

Ahh, okey...cause the first one just confused me.
I just don't see why they need to reboot the franchise, it's awesome the way it is (at least the first three games). o.O

Finally, I can't tell you how much I've waited for a proper remake of Mankey Izland, I mean, point and click in 2011?! Pftt, give me a break, either it's a shooter, or it has lost my attention ...

Now, now you are being unfair man.. You forget that shooters on PC.. are like point and click you know? You point somewhere, you click, and it dies!
I'd say it's a true spiritual successor and it's being made with the utmost respect to the wishes of the fans of the franchise, while also being something that can attract a new audience.
Also it's visceral. You can't get better than that.
