    Just curious on what people think is:
    1) The best lucasarts Series of games
    and,
    2) Their best single game
    3) Favorite Character from Lucasarts games.

    Personally think the best series is Monkey Island,
    while best game being Monkey Island 2.
    Favorite character would definitely have to be Murray The Demonic Skull.

    I don't know if you are including Lucasarts published games but I am currently playing Secret Weapons over Normandy and I think it very very good. Not truly a war flight sim (thank god!) but very atmospheric and great dun to play...


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,156 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    I also vote for Monkey Island 1 (with honorable mention to Monkey Island 2)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,272 ✭✭✭i_am_dogboy


    Grim fandango and glottys, especially when he's drunk

    IIRC, that game was developed by bioware, only published by Lucasarts. Lucasarts havent made a good game since back in the point and click days. SW:KOTOR was class..much better than any lucasarts developed SW game ive ever played.

    Yea, the monkey island series kicks ass.
    I have to say Monkey Island 2 was fairly class.
    Also Grim Fandango , Glottis rules !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Deadwing


    Monkey island 2 was cool i thought, but i thought the ending was really crap :(
    Grim fandango rocked..but i never finished it!

    Warez them, oh wait :dunno: Get your mate to warez them, no paper trail


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,188 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    You can buy Grim in GAME on its own. I saw a pack in GAME in Newery with Grim, Sam and Max, FT and the Dig.

    You could check around offline for it as it's out of stock on the GAME website.

    You can get Grim, Sam and Max and Day of the Tenticle together for £26.98 (€40 before shipping) from Amazon - You can get Full Throttle on Amazon aswell for £8.99 (€13.50)

    You could also try eBay.

    1) Monkey Island
    2) Full Throttle, very short, but fun. Runner up: Day of the Tentacle
    3) Ben from Full Throttle


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,459 ✭✭✭seanos


    Just note about buying full throttle [excellent game]
    Apparently it's becoming rare & out of stock in some areas - becomming rare game.

    Monkey Island 1, no contest.

    (And you can read why in this week's batch of Eurogamer Reader Reviews!).


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,176 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Definitly Monkey Island 1, with honourable mention to X-Wing/Tie Fighter.

    also, i read in pc gamer that you could play the money island 1 sword fighting/insulting game on the net. does anyone know where the site is?


  • Registered Users Posts: 354 ✭✭Commissar


    TIE fighter all the way.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse




  • Registered Users Posts: 572 ✭✭✭Len_007


    All the monkey Islands were deadly. Actually, never played the 4th one. But X-Wing is my favourite

    it was meant to be really crap.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,980 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    It's good, just gets a bit confusing in the middle.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 219 ✭✭Bosco


    Day of the Tenticle followed by X-Wing/Tie fighter.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Deadwing


    Monkey island 4 was cool, but as Giblet said, about halfway through, you have to learn this thing called monkey kombat. Possibly the worst pile of crap ive ever come across in a game. It completely ruined MI4. If you take MI4 on its own merits WITHOUT monkey kombat, id say it was one of the better Monkey islands, what with the starbuccanneers coffe shop and what not :D

    Can't choose between Sam n Max, Monkey Island 2, Tie Fighter or Dark Forces.

    What the hell happened to Lucas arts. They just started farming out licenses to underachievers like Raven. Hope they start getting it right like they did with KOTOR
