Does anyone think they'll ever make a 5th Monkey Island...I've loved every single one of the games and it breaks my heart that LucasArts isn't making another.
Monkey Island
Monkey Island is a series of classic adventure games that follow Guybrush Threepwood in his attempts to become the mightiest pirate in the Caribbean.
Monkey Island 5?
Both Tom Sarris, former PR manager of LucasArts and Simon Jeffrey who was (Maybe still is) the president of LucasArts said that there will definitely be another Monkey Island game- although they said that in 2002, I think it's still valid. On top of that, Ron Gilbert, who created the first 2 Monkey Island games, said in 2006 he wants to create another game, so I'm optimistic about a new Monkey Island. I wouldn't expect it any time soon in any case, though :/
Ron Gilbert is currently making "Deathspank," though pretty much nothing is currently known about it. As for Monkey 5, we can only prey, but if it's anything like 4 then they may as well forget it as it sucked balls, hard.

I'm sure that if the rights to the series are ever sold someone like Telltale or Hothead will snatch them up. I doubt LucasArts would ever return to the series, and I'm not sure if I'd like them too, but since almost all the major developers of the original trilogy are interested in making a new one it will probably happen at some point.

I was also hoping they would go back to the awesome 2D art style that Curse of Monkey Island had.
Edit: Not sure where I got that date, probably from my ass

"Absurd said:Here's the source, It's from like 2002 though. And if a Monkey Island 5 is ever announced, I'm going to play through all of the Monkey Islands once again, Just to try and remember all of the story."Edgar said:Damn. I wonder why?

Not anytime soon. The voice of guybrush http://www.giantbomb.com/dominic-armato/72-6155/ has said he wants to voice Guybrush again in a potential fift game, and Ron Gilbert has said he is interrested in making another one. Hopefully one time in the future we'll see a Monkey Island 5, though unlikely at the time beeing.
"It would be cool if Telltale did the next one.Yeah it would be a stretch. Ben Tiller, the art director for CoMI, currently has his hands full with A Vampyre Story and its' impending sequels. Of course that's not to say it still couldn't be done. Fountain of Youth is a great example of art mimicry.
Oh, and I'd love if they'd go back to the cartoon style of Curse. But I doubt that nowadays this would happen."
One acknowledges that modern life seems to be very expensive, but people need cash for different issues and not every one gets enough cash. Hence to get some business loans and short term loan would be a correct solution.
