Monkey Island DVD, Raves and Graves
Posted by Nikki H February 3, 2010

We just can't stop talking about Tales of Monkey Island, and it appears neither can the press. In their January issue, PC Gamer magazine awarded Tales of Monkey Island Adventure Game Of The Year! We're hoping they ship us a big Adventure Gaming Champion belt so we can take turns wearing it around the office.

I know you all can't wait to get your hands on the Tales Of Monkey Island Collector's DVD. Soon, we'll open up DVD shipping pre-orders where you can update your address and get that disc on its way! There will be a blog and email updates when you can order, and there's no cut-off for delivery- it'll always be available, just for the cost of shipping. Thanks for your patience and stay tuned.

But wait, there's more! For one whole day Telltale fans wracked their creative minds to give Guybrush a eulogy... We asked you to tell us what you think would be written on Guybrush's tombstone, and here are our grim and wonderful submissions:

"I vanquished LeChuck five times... and all I got was this lousy tombstone."
@torynfarr

"I'm with dead-guy --->"
@JustJaap

Here lies Guybrush Threepwood. For now.
Christian Rozenich

There once was a pirate called 'Threepwood'
Whose insults could not be withstood
His claims as to how
They fought like a cow
Could destroy any pirate's strong manhood.

Nathan Rose

Guybrush Threepwood- May he rest in eternal... comfort in one of Stan's Discount Coffins, available now at affordable prices for the pirate who's not on the go!
John-Charles Holmes

Guybrush Threepwood.
Why didn't you buy his fine leather jackets?

Nice tombstone.

For sharing their private thoughts of mourning, these winners get a free episode of their choice to help cope with their loss. Next Tuesday we'll have another chance to get your name up in lights, don't miss it!

This is the second time I've won something by mourning Guybrush's death. That's... comforting...

Aww, I liked my submission this week (the bad limerick about Guybrush being in hell). Come on, next Tuesday. Lemme show you what I got.

My favorite one: "Here lies Guybrush Threepwood. For now." It's the only one that isn't an injoke; the others are good too, though.

Congrats on the win, TTG!
