From le bolt city...

While chatting with my friend David about the old LucasArts Monkey Island games, I started raving about another LucasArts game called Grim Fandango. Man, I loved that game. I walked around talking to pretty much every character just to hear the hilarious dialogue. The puzzles themselves were fun, but I could have watched the characters do their thing for days. Anyway, while thinking about those games, I remembered that Tim Schafer had created and directed some of them, including Full Throttle and Grim Fandango, which led me over to the Double Fine website. Double Fine Productions is the company Tim Schafer started after leaving LucasArts and they have been working on a game called Psychonauts for a long while now. I've been anticipating its release for some time, so after reading some online news source a while ago stating that Double Fine lost its backing from Microsoft, I became a little worried. Well, I just went to check in on the site again to see where they're at, and it looks like they have a new financier! Good news! Not only that, but they have some cool comics on the website! And here they are. It's great stuff... enjoy!

I had to sign up to this just to talk about how awesome Grim Fandango is. And the Monkey Island series. I've been waiting for the next LucasArts adventure game for sooo long...I'm trying to be very optimistic about it.

Le Sigh.

Got to add my voice as a fan of Grim Fandango: love this game! The graphics, the humour, the music...sigh! Where did I put those cds so I can just play it again.
(as a side note: I played the French version, because that was the only copy available. I need to play it in English to hear the original voices)
