Cool game!
Fast server, as well.
But how do you start it?
DOSBOx doesn't seem to work? :crazy:

robotangel 01-04-2006 04:55 PM

I think you can simply start it under Windows... As far as I know Monkey Island 3 needs DirectX 5 (so DOSBox doesnt work....).

Great game, I bought it a few years ago... :bye:

ps: oh, Ive just seen it... April April :D... And I wondered how they did THAT :D

Too lazy to log in.
Anyways, lame joke!

Not cause you know, it's tricky, but because EVERYONE owns Curse of Monkey Island already!
Yeesh! :P

I knew it was a joke all along- if kosta could strike a deal with LA, he would have gotten us MI 2 or Dig, since everyone knows MI 3 sucks.

MrBackAlleySka 01-04-2006 09:18 PM

I must say you guys can put another notch on your belt off me XD I saw that, forgetting it was April 1st and thought "OMFG....YAAAAAYYYY....YAA......Y....awww..... ."

Touche'!!

Snake_Plissken 02-04-2006 12:40 AM

Damn, that's a game worth looking for, too bad you don't have it really...

I LOVE this game. The wit and humour of this game surpasses any other game that I've played. This is another game I keep on my harddrive.

Correction: They only re-released an updated version of the FIRST game from the series. Please make sure your research is correct. :whistling:

Saccade 24-10-2009 11:18 AM

They are kinda right, in that there are the "Tales of Monkey Island" and "Sam n Max" series that have been released - but there is only the "Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition", which has the old game, but with an updated skin or something.

From what I've played, it's exactly the same bar the graphics and SCUMM update.

The MI & Sam n Max series are okay, I guess - I tried to get SnM series for Wii, but it's been stuck at 98% for about 2 months now...
I don't think I'll be playing it anytime soon.

Wasn't the prize for the Monkey Island competition a series of "Tales of Monkey Island"?

I know I do it too, but we should really make an effort to not bash the noobs so hard...
The dude was just trying to preach to the choir, is all.

arete 24-10-2009 12:58 PM

Hug the noobs, they're soft and squishy.... Seriously? Wish they'd all just take two minutes to read the faq. Is that so hard, Saccade? (i made a rhyme!! :eeee: ) :P

Saccade 24-10-2009 02:43 PM

pr. Sackh-Aid. :p

arete 26-10-2009 05:45 AM

In my head it's always Sacc-ahhd. And an image of you roundhouse-kicking blackclad ninjas with a cigar in your clenched teeth... And flowing hair. Possibly this makes you a concatenation of Wolverine, Gambit .....and Rogue. :p

Luchsen 26-10-2009 02:30 PM

[sakade:] for me as a German. :D

StrikeFighter 03-05-2010 06:26 PM

Good Game ! But in some situations very difficult.

And for everyone who has a problem to start it: Use ScummVM !

r8a 24-06-2011 07:08 PM

look behind, a 3 headed monkey!

if u wanna play this game on modern systems, I think scummVM is the safest bet. Otherwise, VPC I guess...

Maxor127 24-06-2011 07:59 PM

I just played it on ScummVM and it seemed to work perfectly. VPC was too slow at first, but even after I fixed that, the game kept freezing during the opening movie, so I gave up.

What kind of computer are you using, I had the same issue using ScummVM on my laptop but on my home PC it works fine.

Tseki 02-03-2017 08:51 PM

My personal opinion is that when Monkey Island series went 3D, the series was over for me. I really enjoy and enjoyed the first two Monkey Island games and I have them in my collection. 3D belongs for the fps games, not for the adventure games.

Honemen 16-07-2019 08:11 AM

Cool idea
