    Actually, you're the one who didn't understand the original point. Which wasn't a bad one either. But you know haha

    I think you both are wrong and i'm right. How does that sound like? Come on, that's rather tempting, isn't it?! :O)

    I hope for something completely different or at least for something different. Again Monkey Island would be somehow boring, although i would expect it beeing more spicy but still, nah not again and then what , Bill Tiller will be next? ...

    spice

    *update*
    The only thing interesting would be to see Gilbert's third part, if he ever had one and they would be allowed to making it this way.

    *todate*
    I just would favour a very good The DIG II or Full Throttle or something completely new a lot more than just a very good Monkey Island but that might just be me.

    Ja mei, so samma halt.

    Anyone expecting to see a sequel to a LucasArts property out of Double Fine is mistaken, with only an extremely tiny margin of error on that. I'd be shocked out of my pants if they worked on one. Whatever they create will almost certainly be something original, simply for rights reasons if nothing else. I'd personally be kind of disappointed if they tried to work on an old project again. Granted, I'm somewhat tentative about their modern-day output no matter what it is, but in a world of reboots and re-imaginings, it would be nice to get something that is actually as good and original as their original output and not something that just rides the wave of previous success.

    I'd love a Grim Fandango 2 all the same, but only if it were superior to the original in absolutley every way, which it wouldn't. Make something new, and give it a better name than bloody Deathspank

    Eh? You get the joke, right? It'd be like making an adventure game called Rex Fortune.

    I thought I was missing sdomething here, but I don't think I am. Regardless, I googled "deathspank name" the second result was "What's in a Name? Is 'Deathspank' the Worst Name for a Video Game Ever?"

    I'm not alone in my thoughts at least

    If Doublefine would make an adventure game then i also would expect it to be very good because dunno everything seems to be set in its right place already. You know they have chairs, a few nice colours on their website and someone even seems to pay their server bills. You might just need to lock Schafer down in a toilet for a couple of days in order to prevent some not this wisely RTS fantasies.

    @JedExodus
    I think it wouldn't be a problem enhancing the steering for instance.

    Well, you know. Not everyone thinks The Godfather is a great movie. You don't think "Deathspank" is a great joke. World would be boooring if we all agreed, eh?

    The name made me feel embarrassed asking for it for my birthday... I'm easily embarrassed though XP
