    Tales of Monkey Island
    Launch of the Screaming Narwhal

    Monkey Island's back after far too long away, returning July 7th with the first of a five-chapter story, "Launch of the Screaming Narwhal." Woo! What will happen? We don't want to tell, but some people love to guess.

    When does the game come out: July 7th 2009
    During the day, Pacific Time

    (It's not out yet!)

    Note that while where you live it may already be the 7th, it's still the 6th way over here where we're making the game! When the game's out, you'll hear about it right here in this thread!!!

    We're located on the west coast of North America, where as of this writing it is 8:00 PM on July 6th. There are still many hours until the game comes out, because it won't be released until we all get a good night's sleep and come back into the office tomorrow!

    Until then, discuss away! See you guys in the morning...

    This was at the front of the thread in case anyone missed it, at the time of my post it is currently 7:30am pacific time so it's gunna be @ least an hour and a half I reckon if not longer...

    We're a band of vicious pirates!
    A sailin´ out to sea.
    When you hear our gentle singing...
    You'll be sure to turn and flee!

    That pirate will be done for, when he falls into our trap!
    We're a club of tuneful rovers!
    We can sing in every clef!
    We can even hit the high notes!
    It's just too bad we're tone deaf!

    We're thieving balladeers.
    A gang of cutthroat mugs.
    To fight us off ye don't need guns!
    Just really good ear plugs!

    All right, crew, let's get to work!
    Our vocation is a thing we love, a thing we'd never shirk.

    We'll fight you in the harbor.
    We'll battle you on land.
    But when you meet singing pirates...
    They'll be more than you can stand.

    Half over? What sort of ungodly hour to you wake up?

    ETA: I'm actually glad of the wait. I have to get some of my re-write done, or it'll be two days with no movement. As soon as it's up, I know I won't be able to wait to play.
