Monkey Island Thread (yeah I had to)

Just so I don't spam the other thread, I figured I'd make a new one.   

Post things about Monkey Island! The best computer games ever.  

Cabana Boy: Let me see your membership card and I'll let you through!
Guybrush Threepwood: You don't need to see my identification.
Cabana Boy: I don't need to see your identification.
Guybrush Threepwood: I'm not the pirate you're looking for.
Cabana Boy: You're not the pirate I'm looking for.
Guybrush Threepwood: I can go about my business.
Cabana Boy: You can go about your business.
Guybrush Threepwood: Move along.
Cabana Boy: Move along, move along... hey! Your mind tricks won't work on me, boy!

Murray: I am a powerful demonic force! I am the harbinger of your doom! And the forces of darkness will applaud me as I STRIDE through the gates of hell carrying your head on a pike!
Guybrush Threepwood: 'Stride?'
Murray: All right then, 'ROLL! ROLL through the gates of hell.' Must you take the fun out of everything?
Guybrush Threepwood: You're about as fearsome as a doorstop.
Murray: Is it a really EVIL-looking doorstop?
Guybrush Threepwood: [sighs] Never mind.

Guybrush Threepwood: Do you know anything about lifting curses?
Murray: Oh, right. I know a lot about lifting curses. That's why I'm a disembodied talking skull sitting on top of a spike in the middle of a swamp.
Guybrush Threepwood: You seem bitter.
Murray: I'm sorry. It's been a rough day.

Murray: Something tells me you're not taking me very seriously.
Guybrush Threepwood: No, no I am.
Murray: Then let me hear you scream in terror.
Guybrush Threepwood: I'm too scared to say anything.
Murray: Ha ha!
[laughs evilly]


Guybrush Threepwood: You're as repulsive as a monkey in a negligee!
Pirate 3: I look THAT much like your fiancee?


So many good lines.....Murray is also one of my favorite characters.

Is it bad that I have no idea what you're talking about?

It just means you are uncultured!

Nah, it's a video game we were talking about in the games thread.

Ahhhh the sign of defeat

I wonder if I can get the game to work on my new computer ^_^

I thought the insult sword fighting was really amusing.
Starbuckaneers coffee shop.

I feel like playing 1-3 now. :DI thought they were so clever with the lines in the game.

One of my favorite moments in the first one

from the start to about 4:25

LT..do not worry you are not alone. I am as clueless as you.hahha

yay! we can be over here in the corner having a tea party while every one else plays the monkey game

Or you both could do a bit of research, play the game and become addicts like us!

LT, yes please. Ill bring some danish cookies.

Amber, thanks for the suggestion. I will consider it. haha

I've never heard of this before! How does one go about acquiring such a game?

It requires being one of the "cool" 90's kids  






Or you could Google "play Secret of Monkey Island online" and see if that works. I use the CD's with a special program that lets me run old DOS games on my Windows 7 laptop.

Never heard of it

It's $7 on steam right now. That's crazy cheap for what you are getting. It truly is one of the best computer games ever

It's a puzzle game, mixed in with humor and adventure kind of thing with a pirate theme

We will convert them all eventually.

Resistance is futile!
