    So what does the broom in the image mean?

    Guess, they're doing a new Harry Potter game, then...
    "Harry Potter and the Ex-Prisoners of LucasArts" or so...

    Huh? Those two pictures are the same.

    Edit: Wait a minute, they're not. One is a bit wider than the other.

    I did alot of of image comparisions . I put it through several programs on my computer. Another several on someone elses computer, then I took it downtown to all my forensic investigator buddies, and everything reached the same conclusion. They are identicle accept for their placing on the thread.

    They're very similar, but they're not identical.

    Actually, if you kinda squint and turn your head to the side, it looks like a skull the first image has a rounder, possibly shorter stomach than the second. It's probably just two different variations on the character design, though.

    What if they are, what if they aren't? It doesn't make any difference unless one of the pictures has some secret meaning.

    Actually I don't mind who or what the game will be featuring, I'm pretty sure these guys (TTG) will come up with a new, exiting, hillarious, challenging, and so on.. -game.. Or games..

    well, we'd hope it would be more than just one game! :p I mean, what would be the point if they only made one game??

    I think we can safely say "Games"

    I'm gonna say Monkey Island game - only because I'd love one and am completely ignoring the practicalities.

    Come'on, you've got a monkey, you've got a Guy with a Brush - that's more than enough to get a looney MI fan like me to happy delude himself into thinking that a new MI game is on the way :)

    What about the Guy with the Giant hammer?

    What if thy only meant the ones who said that it won't be Sam & Max 2 by saying "some of you were right"?...

    Then...er...I know! Maybe it's Full Throttle 2! Quick, somebody else suggest it so we can qualify as "some" and I can get my hopes up! ;)

    (Okay, so I'm just kidding. It's the most unlikely thing ever, I know. I'm just a masochist who likes having her dreams crushed.)

    The blurred character HAS to be Bone. I remember that cartoon from a long time ago. Sounds like a good idea, but I'd way rather have s&m2 =\

    Now that I have answered the question, let's all speculate how good the next Hasselhoff game is going to be.

    well I wouldn't mind seeing a new monkey island either, I played that 3d monkey island but it wasnt really very good at all, I didn't even finish the game.
    These 3d games have been a curse for good adventure games so far .. with a few exceptions (grim fandango,...)
    Just my opinion

    Why would anyone be wanting a Monkey Island game without Ron Gilbert on board? And the Monkey Island intellectual property is owned by LucasArts, I really can't see them selling it to a competitor.

    Anyway, why's everyone hung up on sequels (Sam & Max excepted, for obvious reasons). It's the original characters and scenarios that I'm most looking forward to... like that Caveman guy!

    Maybe because CMI and EMI were amazing as well?

    Monkey Island 3 & 4 were both missing something. they tried to explain away the wierd ending from Monkey Island 2 and that took away from the continuity of the series. Also, they recycled the insult sword fighting from Monkey Island 1. In my opinion recylcing isn't a good thing to do in sequels.

    Although, if we had needed to recall MI1 to be able to win the swordfights, that would have been cool! nasty for those who never played one but it would have been fun :)

    I started playing the series from CMI. I loved that games and I didn't think it was missing anything, but it was different from the first two. The style CMI was in was great, but Monkey island 4 was definatly lacking.

    any one noticed the guy with the hat and no shoes mmmmmmmmmmmmmm what all that about go to the boneville site and see the pictures of bone standing with his hand in the air

    No no, don't you see, when people are burried they don't wear any shoes. It's imparting a secret message that that guy is dead.

    And by the way, that's a broom, not a brush.

    First of all, I don't think the blurred shadow picture has anything to do with the game. I just think they used it because it's a mistery which game they will make and who the shadow is is a mistery, too.

    team.jpg

    I will try helping analyze this image like so many have done before.
    Being a huge Monkey Island fan I'll link most of the stuff in the image to Monkey Island.

    Guy holding hammer: Guybrush used a hammer in MI2 to lock Stan in his own coffin. And in MI3 he used it to nail the bed to the floor.
    Guy holding monkey: ... Well ... Monkey Island is an island filled with monkeys where Guybrush keeps returning to.
    Guy with brush: Just like everyone who said it's a reference to Guybrush. I think so, too.
    Guy with propellor hat: Maybe someone walking around in the themepark on monkey island?
    The guy with the axe I cannot link to Monkey Island

    This is all a little farfetched. The most logical explanation is that it's just an image of "the team". Nothing more

    You sure it's a hammer, looks more like a giant lolliepop to me.
