I'm guessing you're talking about Monkey Island 4? Escape from Monkey Island the only Monkey Island game to be released on PS2. Personally Monkey Island 1 and 2 are my all time favorite, and can't really be compared to later Monkey Islands. Without the original circle of writers, Gilbert, Grossman, and Schafer the series isn't quite as good. Monkey Island was originally planned to be a 3 part game series, but they only got to work on Monkey 1 and 2 before Gilbert left and and Grossman+Schafer worked on other games. Monkey Island's true ending is yet to be revealed =( |
Indeed, the fourth game wasn't fantastic, mind you it wasn't bad either it just lacked the more sharp humour of he first two.
As for Shadow Complex I do wonder if it really is going to drive sales outside of one title. Lucasarts have a huge catalogue of excellent games they could remake if they chose and the vast majority are AAA material. I'm desperate for this title to succeed so they may consider porting, Monkey Island II, Sam And Max, Day Of The Tentacle and perhaps even Maniac Mansion amongst many others. Looking further afield from point and click adventures there is Xwing and Tie Fighter which would be awesome.
