Writing a long post about how ye’d remake Monkey Island sure be a funny way a demonstrating that “I have no plans t' make another Monkey Island.” Threepwood co-parent Ron Gilbert’s done it anyway, 'n while I believe the sea dog when he says he’s currently not working on any such game, it’s hard not t' tin-foil-hat-read his post as essentially a public pitch t' Disney now they’ve taken LucasArts down t' the bottom a the garden. He even mentions Kickstarter, for heaven’s sakes. This be calculated. Whether anything will ever come a it be anyone’s guess – I would imagine it’s less a case a resistance at Disney, 'n more one a corporate wheels turning too impossibly slowly 'n safely t' even notice this sort a thing.

Anyway, the main event: how Gilbert would tackle a Nu-Monkey, given the opportunity.(more…)
