Telltale Games

Stan was the best when selling previously used coffins.

I hope they don't make him some stupid paper-work salesman again. Well, okay, it worked well with selling insurance in CMI, but he was completely unfunny in EMI, and I don't even think his job made a difference at all.

But I thought LucasArts was brilliant to have Stan stuck in a coffin in CMI - it's good to have some continuity sometimes, and a decent explanation why he changed his business.

He wasnt on the first island in any of the sequels so relax

Fury · 08/08/2009, 03:41 am

I loved stan, but in 4 he was bad.

He'll show up. Don't worry.

bugzbunny90 · 08/08/2009, 03:42 am

his best was in 2 and 3

Scapetti · 08/08/2009, 03:51 am

If Stan was in every chapter I would have got seriously annoyed... one chapter will do :/

I just hope his hat will look cool! That makes about 50% of his character.

I wonder what percent of Stan's awesomeness is the completely static pattern on his coat... a pretty big percent I'd say.

Limenut · 08/09/2009, 09:03 am

12.5 I'd say, with the remainder being attitude.
Note that none of the cut went into 'salesmanship'.

His hat rocks, but I thought his crazy hand/foot/arm/facial expressions made 50% of his character.

That's kinda odd, because he fits so well into CoMI exactly because of what you do to him in MI 2. I would have thought his appearance just too random if I hadn't played MI 2.

Ezny · 08/09/2009, 09:24 pm

I agree Stan should show up at some point because yes he's a staple character that's been in every game so far, with that said tho.. I have to admit something...

A part of me... hates Stan. I think he's funny and I don't mind when he shows up but, a part of me just hates him... I'll leave it that

I'm certain to be unpopular amongst many MI fans now I suppose.

...Maybe it was that one time he crashed the game in SoMI, I dunno...

Well now he'll know what to do when he runs into him in MI2 I suppose... Accidental spoiler? heheh

It's got to be over 50%...

bugzbunny90 · 08/09/2009, 10:52 pm

i think a little percentage goes to the purple font as well in subtitles used on Stan...kinda pimps the charecter lol

*Irishmile* · 08/10/2009, 10:05 am

I think it would be incredibly obnoxious if Stan was in every episode.

If Stan is in an episode but not his theme tune from MI 2 through 4, every member of Telltale's music staff will be mysteriously murdered.
