    ....will be the name of my first game once I get the money, staff and booze together to create and develope it.

    It just also happens to be a humorous play on the title of the recent adventure game from Telltale Games, Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 1: The Screaming Narwhal which I have just, as in right now at 3:14am, finished. And I've gotta say it was a brilliant little game that has left me counting down the days until the next episodic installment is released. Definately a game I can get behind and say the developer took a much loved IP and license and did the original games justice with the sequel, not something you see occur too often these days.

    But what about the rest of you, what did you think of TOMI?

    The other purpose of this blog is to get some suggestions from folks on what to spend my pre-order voucher on at the Telltale store. I've never bought or played any of Telltale's other works before, so I'm looking for some suggestions on what to use this voucher on. Any and all ideas are greatly appreciated!

    Hamz, XOXO!

    I haven't played it yet, but I'm sure I'll love it seeing as I loved the other games and the monkey island Lore.

    You have enough brain power at 3:14 in the morning to finish an adventure game?

    Cheers for the suggestion Mooseywinkles. How do you feel about my proposed title for our new game?

    For once I agree with the talking Mooseman. Though I prefer episode 4 with the talking Lincoln head.

    @Hamz: I thought Sam and Max Season 2 was hilarious, much better/less repetitive than season 1, though season one is great from "Lincoln Must DIe" on.

    As for  the new Monkey Island, I think they're off to a great start.  Despite a tired, old adventure game cliche (infinite repeating hell maze? Nooo!!!) and several palette-swapped characters, they nailed the personality and humor of the originals.  I thought the payoffs for completing the puzzles were hilarious and the zombie-hand-to-face slapping doesn't get old.  In many ways I think this series is well on it's way to surpassing the last full Monkey Island (Escape?).
