LeChuck's Revenge is easily my favourite Monkey Island game, with MI1 on a comfortable second place. CMI was great up until the point when you leave Blood Island. After that it feels rushed and out of place. And the less said about EMI, the better.
All of them sadly. Escape from monkey island was a painful experience indeed.
I played monkey island back when there was text for inventory items instead of pictures. *feels old*
I too enjoyed the first monkey island game when there was text for inventory items. I'm 26 and I have no idea how old the game was when my cousin told me to play it. I should call her and tell her about this.
I made it to the monkey kombat in Escape and had to quit for a few years, but I recently played Escape again but with a controller hooked up to my computer and it was a very enjoyable experience. If you didn't like the keyboard set up, you should try it with a gamepad.
I've only played the last 2, out of them I preferred The Curse of Monkey Island for its undeniable charm. Couldn't play the first 2 by the time I got interested in it as the graphics looked incredibly dated and I can't stand awful sound quality
The remake for the first game was extremely good news! As was the Telltale bonus
I have played all four of them, didn't play the first 2 on the Amiga though, I got the dos version... MI1 is what started my obsession with adventure games
I'm starting a marathon as well. All on my Wii....well except for MI4. I wish Residual had proper support for Grim Fandango and MI4 and was already ported to the Wii.

Great to see the Monkey Island series come back again. Big thanks to Telltale for that!!! :cool:
My favourite is still the The Secret of Monkey Island. It's my all time favourite game actually.

Curse Of Monkey Island is my favorite, the first two games are brilliant too though.

np: Tosca - Rosa (No Hassle (Disc 2))
What a fantastic idea! I have the first three and scummVM installed on my computer continuously just in case I want to play one.
