    Wow... was anyone else forbidden from viewing the above link?
    Not that it didn't work, but that it was FORBIDDEN!?

    Oh, and this thread should have a poll. :)

    Funny how they made it more along the lines of my color scheme than the original with its brighter background:

    If you're going to put me in a box, you could at the very least make sure the pictures on the wall are of higher quality. I made sure to include high-resolution pictures that didn't have the gamma or whatever all out of whack in my numbered post, so you could at the very least just quote that.
    Give me five seconds to fix it, I'm already on it.

    And you deserve this box, all life was in peril of being ended over that argument.

    EDIT: Or I'll rob LS, that'll work too.

    What matters is the game itself, and as far as I'm concerned, the game looks fantastic and much more faithful to the original. Personally, there was only one thing I didn't like about the first SE, and that was the long pauses between lines of dialogue, but even that can be fixed just by switching to the original game and speeding up the subtitles, then going back to the SE.

    I also thought that the poster looks fine, an besides, its a bloody poster! I'm not very strict when it comes to things like this, but still, I think it looks really good.

    As previously said, massive fail. ;)
    That said, the new cover only sucks compared to the original. On it's own it's ok.

    Did we really need a third thread????

    No, you just went out of your way to clog up the boards.

    The cover is bad on purpose

    it's a promotional scheme

    look what terror it has caused

    By the Great Chain! Thank mercy that you gave him this box. I would hate for all of my efforts in my great city to have been for naught. For what it's worth, I and everyone around me prefer the 'classic' box art. Anyone who prefers the redesign either has a finger in your pocket... or a pistol at your neck.

    I didn't mean to make you feel that way, I just wanted to point out that as long as the game is good, and the original cover doesn't get removed from the Earth, it doesn't make a huge impact. Now, how do I delete this thread?

    PariahKing... did the word 'definitely' REALLY need to be abbreviated? Really? Laziness is a trait of the Parasite.

    huh? Oh, and you can ban be in the banning game for expressing my opinion, by which I make everyone on this forum angry. I feel bad for starting up this thread. Please, don't cancel the SE, for goodness dake!

    It's more of a commentary on the situation than you.

    Merged both threads into this one. Hi guys.
  • edited March 2010
    Now that I look at the pics from side to side, I notice that the only problem I really have with it could be fixed if guybrush's chin was lifted a wee bit higher and have his hands placed higher on his head. Otherwise, I'm good with it. Hell, I'm good with it already.

    I didn't grow up playing this game like a lot of you guys seem to have, so I guess I don't have nostalgia to factor in.

    I am really confused now. Are people mad at me? I need to know, so I can get rid of my stupid posts.

    The new cover is awesome. It's not perfect, but it's awesome. I shall refer you all to my diagram:

    I can't believe how much the new art sucks... I hope it's a joke or something.

    @Fealiks

    1) your diagram is too large

    2) your diagram is too large

    3) it needs numbers and/or percentages or something, and some indication of what it's a diagram about
  • edited March 2010
    For something that merely acts as a banner which i'll see once or twice when buying the gam, i think it's alright. However, it looks too much like an in-game screenshot. The original cover was a piece of artwork.

    Thus proving TV Tropes was right when they mentioned Telltale's Monkey Island series and the forum presence it created under "Fan Dumb."

    Oh, this keeps getting fun and fun. What's next, someone submits this to Fandom Wank?

    If you think about it the original MI2LCR game looked nothing like the cover of the box, at least this MI2LCR SE looks like the game your playing or going to play this Summer.
