BlinkyEC — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 14:57:07 GMT

Quote:

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge is coming to the iPhone, iPod Touch, Mac, PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 this summer.

Lucas Arts revealed the games to kick off their annual Game Developers Conference party, bringing Tim Schaefer and Ron Gilbert, the originals creators of the game, to the front of the room for the announcement.

The special edition includes new high-def graphics, a re-mastered musical score, full voiceover, and an in-depth hint system.

"The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition really resonated with gamers young and old thanks to its classic storyline and updated gameplay features," said LucasArts' President Darrell Rodriguez. "We're adding even more great new features in this sequel and can't wait for classic Monkey Island fans and newcomers alike to experience perhaps the most beloved installment in the franchise ever."

LucasArts also announced today that The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition will soon be available for digital download on the PS3 via the PlayStation Network, for the Mac from Aspyr's www.GameAgent.com, and for the PC via the Telltale Games online store at www.TelltaleGames.com and Instant Action's www.InstantAction.com

Favorite Original Xbox Games

TRF — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 13:59:53 GMT

My favorite Original Xbox games would have to be Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Fuzion Frenzy, Fable, Indigo Prophecy, Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Gaiden Black, Rainbow Six 3: Black Arrow, and Black.

I also loved Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Psychonauts, but I played those on PS2.
