"With bony hands I hold my partner/ On soulless feet we cross the floor/ The music stops as if to answer/ An empty knocking at the door/ It seems his skin was sweet as mango/ When last I held him to my breast/ But now we dance this grim fandango/ And will four years before we rest."

For gods sake, someone remake or rerelease this game in some form.

Agreed, sir. I would flip shit if someone did a gussied up "HD" remake. It would give me an excuse to play through it again

I still haven't finished it, but loved every minute I did play.

What a great game. Man there were some good puzzle/adventure games out around that time what with Monkey Island etc.

Yeah, i couldn't finish it because the game crashed on me at a certain point. I'd love to see a remake, not because of the graphics, but stability on newer systems.

It's magical. Everyone play Grim Fandango.

Yeah, awesome game, awesome atmosphere, awesome story, awesome puzzles, awesome characters.

Shittiest controls ever.

Oh god so true. That damn forklift/elevator puzzle in the 2nd year was a god damn nightmare.

Well, my biggest problem was that I just couldn't figure out one of the puzzles. Had something to do witth the big guy that could fix cars early on. A bit too clever for me, I guess; reminded me of some of the puzzles from Hitchhiker's Guide, almost...  well, no, that's too harsh. Thank you hive-mind internet for helping me get past it.

Indeed a truly brilliant game that makes me all the more hopeful for the upcoming Double Fine Adventure.

I was recently inspired to run through it once more and record it all http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL98DCC5B81BC3B82D

Yeah, it's definitely one of my favourite games of all time.. The writing was awesome! I'm not sure if I would like for it to be redone - the only thing I'd want them to do would be to update the graphics and keep everything else as they were.
