Default LucasArts to make curse special edition?

the guybrush skin in the force unleashed 2 looked a lot like the Guybrush in curse of monkey island.is this hinting that they might make a curse of monkey island special edition with the same kind of look as the skin?

I recall there being a thread about this already.

But in my opinion, I think the Guybrush costume in Force Unleashed II was more fan-service then a hint towards a special edition, but hey, I could be wrong.

Fan service eh? But why CMI? Why not MI2? Why not EMI? Why not TMI? Something isn't adding up.

Guybrush will turn to the dark side.

What's the point? The biggest addition to the Special Editions was that they had drawn graphics, and used the voice actors from Curse. Curse already HAS drawn graphics and the voice actors from Curse.

The main point would be widescreen support and having it run properly in newer versions of Windows without the use of ScummVM. Also, a remake of Curse would use DirectX, which would make streaming the game so much easier.

If there will be a SE, I want the missing cutscenes.

MI1:SE
MI2:SE

and then hopefully
CMI:HD Extended version* :P

*widescreen

Of course, that would mean they would rescan and paint more on the backgrounds, and walkable areas and stuff. But still, that would be awesome. And higher quality on speech and music, maybe..

Actually, when I think of it, I wouldn't mind paying full price for that.

Oh, and Ron Gilbert's Monkey Island 3 would be more awesome...

If they did include the missing cutscenes, I would want an option to turn them on or off. I'd probably play with them on once, just to see them, but I would mainly want to play a full widescreen version of the original game with more colors.

Fixed.

Took me some time to learn that Mickey is a she.

But as for CMI, as I have said before, better resolution, better sound and music and the missing cutscenes. That is all the remake the game needs.

Seriously, there needs to be a field for gender in our user info, this sort of thing happens way too often.

I agree, as you may be able tell from my user title.

Also: must we really have another thread about this? Can't we just revive one of the various other older threads about the same topic? Like this one, or perhaps this one here? I just feel like we're going over the exact same points as we have before.

Hah, good point. It happens all the time, doesn't it? I find myself repeating the same points so often in separate threads. Actually, sometimes I repeat myself in the same thread, when some people are too lazy to look through previous pages to see whether or not someone has already posted the same question, query, theory, topic or statement before them before posting, thus triggering the same freaking conversation/discussion again...

Yeah... there should be one, that's the beauty of the internet.


Anyhow, we should have one of the CMI:SE threads as a sticky, or something of that sort. Or... was this brought up already in one of the many threads?

No, I don't think it was, but yes, I agree with you - we should have one of them as a sticky. I would suggest the thread that Irishmile started (as that was the first one).

I sure hope not. There's nothing wrong with the original version of the classic. There's nothing to add, it's a special game, it's aged beautifully. It was a terrific project that has proven to be timeless. Even if it is aging, it has proven to be a masterpiece in both art and production!

LEAVE IT ALONE. Give us MI 6 if anything.
