It just occurred to me that now Guybrush has to stay the hell away from root beer, plus he can't see the Head of the Navigator anymore, so he can't navigate the Caverns of Meat anymore either.
areas too. If you look at the full size images in the VIP section it looks more like a lantern of some sort that's flying around. It's way too large to be the diamond. Seeing how it seems to fly around, maybe it somehow transports
Guybrush's ghost
between the different islands?
Then again, there's a box in the very same shape of that thing on the table in the
thieve's den, which looks suspiciously like King Andre's hideout, which is where he got the diamond in the first place.
Concepts look amazing. How awesome would it be if Telltale's graphics engine could render the 3D environment in such a way that they look like these concepts?
I was thinking the same thing..., and it scares me.
Why? Spiffy seemed to imply he knew all about LeChuck & Elaine. He also hinted that he knew something about Monkey Island.
Because, in my book, Spiffy would be the perfect tool for Telltale to reveal the secret.
And that could very well mean, no more Monkey Island games.
*somber look*
I can't find a quote at the moment, but Telltale confirmed early on that they weren't going to reveal the Secret. So no need to fret.
Also, I'm dying to hear of how Telltale managed to snag Earl Boen after not getting him at first. This must be told some day (yes, even if it doesn't turn out to be a particularly interesting story ).

That sounds like a fine story for the Bay Area Sound guys to tell during the audio commentaries for that cutscene on the DVD. Hint, hint.
Anyway, if I'm not mistaken Earl Boen is retired and living on an island in Hawaii now, and somebody flew out there and later directed him over the phone or something for his voice work in TSOMI:SE. I'm assuming that may have been too costly for Telltale for just those three lines he speaks in LOTSN, but worthwhile once the script for TTAEOGT and ROTPG was complete.
Man! I can't believe I didn't realize that before! I sure hope so...
I'm pretty sure Murray is to return. Although I personally do not really care, I was surprised at how brief his appearance in chapter 3 was. When Guybrush commented the skull candle in chapter 4 with "I wonder what happened to Murray.." I was sure he would reappear.
Guybrush: And now to finally complete the last trial and get out of this underworld boardgame, just gotta open this chest, and...
*Murray's theme starts playing*
...MURRAY!?
Murray: Bwahahaha, Foolish mere ghostly Guybrush, I, Murray, have once again thwarted your plans of hope by getting in your way once again with my awe inspiring evil demonic powers!!
Guybrush:...Uh huh, how did you even get down here?
Murray: Using my mystic powers of Darkness and Hatred and, ...ok ok, I don't have a clue, after you knocked me into the waters I sank to the bottom and fell into some chest and remained there since, until a few hours ago, this thing was transported and, well, here I am, ....but I totally wanted this to happen so bow down before my brilliant dark powers of wishful thinking!
pages 2 and 3 of the slide show are really interesting, number 3 especially. There is some kind of diamond shaped doorway kind of thing in the screenshot. A portal of some kind?

Ghost Guybrush vs. Human Lechuck.
On the Head of the Navigator thing, yes he can if someone gives it to him without the necklace on.
Yeah, I mean that's what I was hoping for. I can settle for Ghost Guybrush vs. Demon LeChuck.

Well as RotPG is now being referred to as the 'Season Finale' I think we can rest assured there will be more Monkey Island in the future.
Anyone else agree or is this wishful thinking?
It IS Earl Boen. We can tell.
Plus we're hoping this means it's him on the DVD version of episode 1.
Edit: Haha, I just noticed that Ghostbrush has his left hand back. Nice touch!

That ship's simply fantastic.
So do you think we'll get a "I'm Guybrush Threepwood, and I wanna be a Mighty
I can only assume that
.... Murray?
that does look like the chest he fell in at the end of chapter 3. i hope denny delk can come back for this episode

Same here !
It gets pretty ugly when covered all over by useless icons, though...
