I agree that the style is too Burton-ish.

I agree that the haircut is... strange... And what's up with the goatee? I mean, in the first game, guybrush is supposed to be a baby-face, which made funny he wanted to be a pirate! He always looked younger than he is!


But yeah, I would totally play it, anyway...

I don't think they could've made Guybrush look any creepy-er without making him not look like Guybrush. I think I'll just stick to the classic that I can play for free and delivers the same results. I really think that the art style would completely ruin the experience for me.

Well, except graphics MI has only story and puzzles. Since we already know the story and how to solve the puzzles, the only thing left is the graphics. It's the only thing we can actually criticize

Damn somebody beat me to the post

I really enjoyed the sam and max games from telltale, and as a long time MI fan I am really looking forward to this and will almost certainly buy it

having said that I quite enjoyed curse of MI and lots of people didn't , for me as long as there is some good humour thrown in I don't really care if the characters look exactly the same.

I have also enjoyed Curse of Monkey Island, even though I am a long time lover of the first two MI. It has simply a lot of humor. An Murray. Oh, my god, Murray is between the most funny MI characters. The only MI that I didn't like (although it had a thing or two) was Escape From Monkey Island. It just simply wasn't good. And I can't believe what they did to Murray! I mean, so much potential an only have him as a promoter? C'mon!

I'm *really* looking forward to this new Monkey Island, I find it kinda exciting! As a long time Monkey Island fan, I bought 'em all, and even though Escape from Monkey Island didn't live up to the expectations that Curse of Monkey Island had spawned, it was still good (I agree with El Quia, they *totally* killed Murray, he had so much potential, he was just plain *awesome*!).
I'm still hoping that we'll get a MI5 some day (hey, the voodoo lady said she had an unbreakable 5-game contract! ), but in the meantime, this revamp of MI1 should be fun!

Lucas. Remake. Lucas. Remake. Why is everyone surprised? Next he'll be making sad, sad prequels. Someone should have shot him after Return of the Jedi. No offense, George.
