Try eBay.

Fond memories. So far somewhere like eBay would be your best bet, but heres hoping Good Old Games (www.gog.com) gets the Lucasarts License

'How appropriate, you fight like a cow!'

"You're as repulsive as a monkey in a negligee!"
"I look that much like your fiance?"

*sigh* I love those games.

Aaah! Monkey Island! I love that game! I swear I saw it for the PS2 one day at Gamestop but whenever I ask about it nowadays they can't find it in their system. Did I dream up a Monkey Island re-release?

Yes. Yes you did.

Monkey Island on anything other than PC is blasphemy, and would destroy my faith in everything ever.

@Omnipotent - Oh phooey.. I wonder what I saw then? Maybe it was one of those dvd game things they have slapped in with the ps2 games sometimes.. Not monkey island but something else I used to play..

As much as I would like to argue that Escape From Monkey Island doesn't count as it is the fourth in the series and is in no way produced by the original team, I will now go and commit suicide by bashing my head in with my PS2, while singing 'A pirate I was meant to be' at the top of my voice...

We're thieving balladeers.
A gang of cutthroat mugs.
To fight us off ye don't need guns!
Just really good ear plugs!

Forget Monkey Island, and go for Quest for Glory. =D
Keapon Laffin will love you.

 

[Omnipotent_Mortal]

Forget Monkey Island

I'm sorry, what?

Forget Monkey Island

No. No I can't do it. Nothing in the history of videogames could ever make me forget those wonderful times.

I must admit, pirates were never my cup of tea.

How about Monkey Island on your mobile phone? Not an adaptation, the full, original thing? Personally I thought that was the best use for a Symbian phone I've ever seen.

You can download Monkey Island somewhere, I've done it at least twice in the past. And if you're concerned about piracy I wouldn't, you're never going to kill the industry downloading Monkey Island.

Umm, wow. Thats actually a pretty cool idea. Although it depends on how it looks, sounds and feels, i've always hated mobile phone games because of the tiny screen and my annoyingly large fingers.

 

[KarmicToast]

Just download SCUMM. It has all the old Lucas Arts Games and is free! And Monkey Island is awesome....

 

[number2301]

Yup, it was SCUMMVM which I used to play Monkey Island on my phone

Looked just the same although yeah the screen was tiny but it coped with the low res graphics just fine. My N73 had a small joystick as well which did a good enough job as a mouse for me. Mobile phone games can be a bit annoying but with Monkey Island being so slow paced it was definitely bearable

Where is my phone and where in the depths of my hard drive is SCUMMV?
