Believe me: Only Ron knows the secret. And he will take it to his grave.

And then, in the middle of the night, dark shadows will fall upon his grave as a group of Monkey Island Fanatics (MIFs) descend upon it with shovels. They will dig up his coffin, pry it open, and then hold aloft a single bone in the air as lightning strikes around them and their trousers fall down...

...and then they get arrested.

But not before they use the bone to create...the Ultimate Voodoo Doll! And the suffering of Ron's kids at the hands of a bunch of MIFs having a laugh begins...

That whole video was really interesting. Especially the part about the decline of adventure games.

Haggis · 09/02/2009, 05:58 am

Man, the camera in that video is making me seasick...

Kroms · 09/02/2009, 06:01 am

Heh, I'm pretty sure 1UP hadn't planned on unveiling this video yet. They were going to do it in a few hours, actually.

I think Ron said once that he has a document with the secret in it. He said it will be read at his funeral in the event he dies without making the last monkey island game to conclude the series and reveal everything. Probably just joking though. Imagine though, hundreds of people would probably just show up to hear the secret. Not to say their wouldn't be a lot of grief either.

You do realize in the 2009 video game world chapmpionships(which BOTH MI and sam and max where in. MI got about maybe 4 records and its own page and sam and max got 1 along with saying they are point n clicks last hope.) Someone said the secret to monkey island was....
pi shocking isnt it.

Geypi · 09/02/2009, 02:18 pm

there has got to be a secret

thanatos56 · 09/02/2009, 02:48 pm

The secret is what you need to add to a game to keep the cult following rabid after nearly 20 years and 4 sequels.

pilouuuu · 09/02/2009, 04:44 pm
