Hey! The critically-acclaimed third chapter of Tales of Monkey Island is out today on WiiWare in North America!

How far will the Pox of LeChuck spread?

Get Lair of the Leviathan today on WiiWare, and discover what the fuss is all about!

(European Wii owners: We're hoping to have news for you guys soon, too!)

Can it be? Is it true? Alas, another wild show of premonition for Tales of Monkey Island is upon us! Tune in as the glorious Majus & Co. deliver cameos, ineptitude, and a wicked French accent to summarize their expectations of The Trial and Execution of Guybrush Threepwood. Let's see:

...Just how close to the truth are they? We'll find out next week! Until then, I Wonder What Happens...

It's time for Telltale's probably-fourth-annual Halloween contest! We know our fans are super-talented as a rule, which is why we love holding this event every year. However, for one reason or another, we've managed to attract a flock of dedicated Monkey Island fans into our community during the past few months, so we're hoping for even more great stuff this time around. Let's get to the details!

How does it work?

Basically, you'll need to make or do something creative that relates to any Telltale series and send it in to contest@telltalegames.com. Your creation doesn't need to have a Halloween theme, but it couldn't hurt! As in previous years, the entries will be judged by the Telltale staff. The deadline for entries is October 27, and we'll announce the winners on October 30.

You can send in sketches, paintings, videos, songs, poems, sculptures (well, maybe pictures of those), or some other original creation that is awesome. Still not sure what to do? Take a look at some past excellence for inspiration:

Contest rules

• It's been said in years past, and I'll say it again: Please don't do anything illegal or that would make baby Jesus cry.
• Send your creations to contest@telltalegames.com with "Halloween contest" in the subject line. Your stuff needs to be in by 9pm Pacific Time on October 27, 2009.
• You can send in as many entries as you'd like, but you can only win once.
• Don't send attachments over 2MB. If you're making something that is too awesome to be constrained by that file size limit, host it somewhere online and send us the URL. Thanks!
