I must get that game - I loved the first one. Great humour! But the puzzles, arg, yes of course, using a rubber chicken for that makes *so* much sense!

<font color="cyan">I've played them all, and I rated them in the order in which they were made. Completed first 3, cudnt be arsed with the last.

1st was the best,
4th was the worst.</font>

Not to sound daft, but what is Monkey Island? I don't recall hearing about it.

<font color="cyan">too late, you sound daft.

It was a click puzzle game, like Day of the Tentacle or Sam and Max. I've forgot the computer gaming term. The first one started on the Amiga, as did the second. Then after a HUGE gap, the 3rd and 4thw ere released on PC.

They are very good on the whole, and very challenging.</font>

How appropriate, you fight like a cow!

The Monkey Island games are some of the finest games ever made. Each is a work of art of a standard not often seen. (Im ignoring technological advance (like Myst for instance). The humour is brilliant, the puzzles are mad, yet always have at least some logic behind them (at least with hindsight), and they introduced Insulting as a sport. What more do you want? oh yeah - years ago they were one of the games (alongside X-wing) that I could point to as seperating the consoles from the PC.

The first 3 (the better ones, although 4 is still excellent) are now available in a combo pack, and they used to run fine on my p166, so they should work on a modern machine.

"You'll never catch me fighting that badly!"

Well that is twice now that I've heard mention that #4 wasn't as good. I have my thoughts on that as well, but am curious first why yall think so?

Oh, and do I see quivers of agony dance on your lip? :D ;)
