    The Icon Art:

    ooh... looks all shiny and special.

    I knew it would be LeChuck, though I was really hoping for a LeChuck icon anyway.
  • edited December 2009
    I just got an idea: Jake (or someone who works at TT) said he'd do an icon of ep 1 with concept art of guybrush for us who think it'd look better with the whole set. Could this be part of a rerelease with the added... Boen?

    I want to buy All the monkey island games for Wii. Can.t find them for sale any ideas?
  • edited December 2009
    How pray tell did you stumble upon that StLouis? It's on the TTG server along with high res versions of the rest of the game icons so I'm not saying it's fake or anything, just curious how you found it. :)

    Only episode 1-4 are currently available for Wii, you'll have to wait until some time at the end of the month for the last episode. Though I really doubt there will be any "sales" for the whole set. (I've never seen Wii Shopping Channel have such a thing) So you'd have to buy them for 1000 Wii points each. (around 10 bucks for each)

    1-3 in europe. But yeah, there won't be a sale. In the Uk, the whole wii series will set you back £35 (if you get your points directly from the shop channel) to £50(from a shop). Compared to the PC prices, it is a ripoff, considering the inferior quality of the wii version. But it's nice to have the option for those of us who don't (didn't in my case) have Good enouth P.C's. For me, i got the whole PC season, and two wiiware episodes for the same price as the Wiiware season would have cost (minimum).

    Games -> Monkey Island -> The Deal

    I saw it was uploaded, so I just used the formula for the full sized for all the other eps found in the store.

    Ah, well I wouldn't know. thanks btw!

    I actually extracted the Morgan image from the LotL EXE with a resource hacker but there was some...let's say...overflow. It looks like it was made using an unfinished version of the concept art or something coz it extends beyond the borders of the normal icon haha. I tried to clean it up myself but it's awesome to have this one (looks a lot better). :)

    And quick! Everybody grab the Ep.1 high res icon before it gets replaced with the concept art version! :D

    Can't you just get it from the avatars pack?
  • edited December 2009
    That image is only 90x90. And that's a different version of LeChuck than was included in the avatars pack. And it had a monkey instead of a Morgan and a Voodoo Lady instead of a Stan. :p
  • edited December 2009
    I'm glad that Earl Boen is back as Lechuck. It was a pleasant surprise when I saw his name in the credits of chapter 4.

    Thank you both. I can now proudly remind you the old saying, "Consumer always wins".

    Phail'd, nice gentlemen.

    That's exactly what I was talking about here:

    And as StLouisRibs has shown, the one in the folder with the rest of the high res images is much better quality than the one embedded in the LotL EXE. ;)

    Chapter 5 will be appearing Tuesday afternoon (Pacific). Hopefully this doesn't inconvenience anyone too greatly, but everyone's working really hard over here to get this one out.
  • edited December 2009
    Yes it does inconvenience me because it'll be sitting there taunting me while I'm working on finals, FFFFFFFFFFFFF. (just kidding do what you must)

    What time did you release ch4? Was that AM?
  • edited December 2009
    Afternoon, Pacific Time? I'm at GMT+1, so that's a nine hour difference. No pirate gods rising today, then. Oh well, I have the entire evening tomorrow.
  • edited December 2009

    Thanks for telling us. It essentially means that I'll be getting it tomorrow (Wednesday) - afternoon for you would be in the middle of the night for me (or the earliest morning hours?).
  • edited December 2009
    Oh darn. Late night for me tonight :/
    I wonder if it's too late to book tomorrow off work ^_^
  • edited December 2009
    If the game is still being tweeked I'd rather the game was 100% before playing it , take another week if you need it , hell why not release it on 24th December ? If you ask me theres alot of impatient children in here. We waited this long for the ressurection of MI another few weeks wouldnt hurt
  • edited December 2009
    ...Or even release it next year!

    It's keeping to a regular schedule. A week after the original month is fine, but there gets to a point where it becomes irresponsible for the company.
  • edited December 2009
    Ah well... it'll be the 9th for me then.

    In Italy as well, starting from 09:00 p.m. (21:00) tonight or better I think it will be released late night here, at 01:00 a.m., or 02:00 a.m. or 03:00 a.m. so it's the next day.

    What ? A week overdue and now this ? No pirate god for me the 8th.... This game has been nothing but delays and frustration and oh yeah, the odd 4 hours of play every once in a while....

    Note to self : never buy a game in the middle of development again....
  • edited December 2009
    oh well. now i know for sure not to stay up late tonight. take your time, good men (and telltale women). :)

    Hey, I appreciate the heads-up. I'll know to check back this evening, then, and meanwhile I can just sit back and enjoy Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, which also came out today (rather appropriate that these two games would come out the same day, some to think of it).

    So it'll come out maybe an hour or two before my annoying friends bring their Xbox to my house for a day of Halo and Modern Warfare? Joy. :p

    Perhaps I'll just...uh...quietly slip away from them for a good 4-6 hours.
  • edited December 2009
    I think some people are taking this delay too badly. Come on! You don't play it today but tomorrow, what difference does it make? Of course, I can't say I were happy when I found out it was being released at night here in Italy, but look at the bright side: do you prefer a game which is released with a constant delay every month but is turning out to be one of the best Monkey Island ever, or would you rather buy a mish-mashed commercial product with no artistic value coming out precisely on schedule the 7th of each month? I think I'm going for the first choice.
    Don't worry Telltale, take your time. We trust you and we know you'll bless us with an amazing finale.

    And, it's not really a delay. It will still be released on the 8th PST. They're just telling people that it won't be first thing PST.
