    I'm a collector of those games. I have the 1st 3. Thanks for the help! Is number 4 not meant 2 be any good? When is 5 going to be released does any one know?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    I don't think #5 has been announced.... I'll be front of the queue if it came out though!

    And Escape from Monkey Island (#4) is excellent....

    I once owned a dog that was smarter than you.

    It's not as good as the first 3 but it's not awful. Still a good game.

    Heh.... well done. I reckon I was 50/50 on either someone reporting the post for abuse, or someone understanding the reference. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,013 ✭✭✭SirLemonhead


    I've played the first two games more times than I can remember, and can play through the whole things without having to stop once to think about how to do any of the "puzzles", ive played 3 a couple of times too, but I couldn't even bring myself to finish number 4 one single time :p

    "i am rubber, you are glue"
