Yeah, I enjoyed. MI4. I even liked the monkey combat. The dialogue is good/funny enough and the puzzles are nice. The point the game was making about 'fake happiness' was good, but I mostly appreciated the humor.
The thing with Otis having a trauma from MI1 is hilarious, imho.

It's just that the controls are bad and the graphics were a big step backwards from MI3. Especially the lack of facial expressions is a real bummer.
Getting the game working on a new computer can be a buggy/crashy experience too. There is no ScummVM to save the day.

All in all it's a great game with terrible packaging. LA jumped onto the 3D boat WAAAAAAY to soon here. It would have been really good if they stuck with the MI3 way of making it.
