Forums - Microsoft - New Monkey Island game 360 console exclusive. HD remake also 360 exclsuive.

selnor on 01 June 2009

It's with great pleasure that I received a few minutes ago the announcement of the upcoming periodical release of Tales of Monkey Island, developed by Telltale for PC and XBLA. And even better, Lucasarts is also working on a HD remake of the first game called The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition, also for PC and XBLA.

This has been posted already along with more info which states that Monkey Island is being revived on the PC and the Wii during the summer with new episodic content, 5.

Wow, the show didn't start yet and I'm already excited to hear about more exclusives coming for the 360 this year! o_O



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

One of the best news I could receive. Monkey Island Remake AND a sequel, awesomely awesome. And it's for PC, so I won't have any problems at all. I love E3!!!!!

HD remake?

I might double dip if it's just a rescan of the original illustrations.





Current-gen game collection uploaded on the profile, full of win and good games; also most of my PC games. Lucasfilm Games/LucasArts 1982-2008 (Requiescat In Pace).

Tales of Monkey Island has only been announced for PC and Wii. There's no Xbox 360 version confirmation.

And the HD remake is NOT exclusive...

No, you get over it. The HD remake is coming to PC, so it's NOT exclusive.

shio is correct.

According to the two official sites (LucasArts, Telltales), the only platform that has both games confirmed is the PC - additionally 360 owners will get the remake of TSoMI on XBLA and Wii owners will get Tales of Monkey Island on WiiWare.

And I'll get TSoMI on PC and Tales of MI (most probably) on WiiWare. Anyway, let's rejoice, Monkey Island fans.
