    Only if Danny Delk returns to voice the character. I don't mind substitutes for other characters, but without Delk it isn't Murray; no-one else will ever be able to do him quite as well.

    Meh, murray was ok. But he was no Herman Toothrot.

    or even better, a 10 minute dialog between the two

    I'd rather see Men of Low Moral Fiber and maybe some of Scumm Bar patrons

    Well who ever has played Monkey island 4, knows that murray can make a less than desirable monkey island game move more smoothly . He was easily one the best parts of MI-4, as well as MI-3 which wasn't in need of saving, but Murray definately helped the games spirit . Fans of monkey island 1- 2 , whatever but most Monkey island fans have to admit that murray was a ,great character and I wouldn't mind seeing him in the fifth game. We can only anticipate that this game will take a little from every monkey island before it. Murray is a lasting character, a new additiion that I believe is now a tradition and if they break the tradition I'll be sad.

    Yes, they are. I loved their interaction with Guybrush and I think they have a lot of potential to be developed further as characters.

    I'm sure that Murray will return. He's become such a part of what Monkey Island is in the last two games, that even if he's just sitting on a shelf in the Voodoo Lady's hut, there will be some brilliant interactions with him.

    Though maybe, with this being a five episode series, we'll get a whole episode focussing on something to do with him! How rad would that be?

    I could see Murray making a surprise in the new game when you least expect it
  • edited June 2009
    You know, I actually hate Murray and never got why everyone loved him.

    I'm curious, do people who love Murray start playing with CMI, as I've been playing since SoMI and so have most of my friends and we all don't get why Murray is so popular?

    I played Monkey 1 and 2 first, and I really liked Murray. He was something which I don't think would have fit well in 1 or 2, but in the aesthetic of 3 he worked really well. I loved the bit where he and you team up to scare the gravedigger. Any time Guybrush can use the things around him to terrorize, insult, or otherwise ruin the lives of the people around him is a plus for me.

    I've decided to eject anyone who doesn't like Murray from this forum. As soon as I gain any actual power to do so, mark my words, I'll do it!

    Checking in. Murray +1

    I never really liked him either, but Stan or Largo Le Grand for instance were an awesome figures.
    Murray was so so...

    Murray is brilliant, just some of those classic quotes from Curse and the way Guybrush puts him down:
    "As I stride through the gates of Hell!"
    "...Stride?"
    "ROLL, Roll through the gates of Hell!"
  • edited June 2009
    Murray for President !!!!!
  • edited June 2009
    Forget Murray! I'm boycotting the game if the Abomination of Nature from EMI doesn't play a pivotal role. :P

    we want mur murray and less cowbell!
  • edited June 2009
    what about murray being good? lets say we catch him on some resort island acting like a tourist guide, speaking about the attractions of the islands and so on.. he ignores guybrush claiming that they don't know each other because he is shy of not being evil, but later confess that its some kind of voodoo curse that turned him good and you go on a mission to help him and break it :p
  • edited June 2009
    Murray is bound to be in it.

    :) Well murray does have that sort of captivating voice .I could see him narrating and tour guiding.

    Hey didn someone post a link to a cool Murray song? or is that something i just dreamed hmm ?
  • edited July 2009
    Murray was in it, he was the one at the very end of the game before it said to be continued. (he was putting on a fake voice)

    :eek: SO Murray is responsible for Guybrush getting the pox!!!

    Who doesn't like Murray? I mean come on!

    BWAHAHAHAHAHA! I will STRIDE through the gates of hell carrying your head on a pike!

    ...Stride?

    All right then, ROLL! ROLL through the gates of hell! Must you take the fun out of everything?

    How can you not like Murray? You know, MI and MI2 were good, but since I was a kid of the late 90's, I thought MI3 and MI4 were the best! TMI is great, too! With MI 3 and 4, I remember thinking it was so cool that the characters talked! None of the others did that! It was amazing! Yes, I was very young when I played it. I still call MI 3 and 4 classic!

    I kept clicking that skull in the voodoo lady's shack, it wasn't Murray, it was never Murray.
    So yeah
    Another one for Murray please.

    I think this is the Murray song you mentioned?
    http://murrayskull.ytmnd.com/

    I've just noticed that in the poll of all characters (As in Doodo's Signiture)
    Guybrush is on 123
    Murray is on 113

    They're clear outliers :P And awesomely popular!

    Murray was my favourite character in CMI, but I think they ruined him in EMI. They made him way too over the top and exagurated, and his speeches and rants were not nearly as good as the ones in CMI. If they decide to bring him back, wich I'm sure they will, I hope it'll be with a skilled set of writers. I also think the series should've managed to set the dark tone of MI2 and CMI before they throw Murray in there. If Murray returns it must be grand and epic. Maybe not epic for Murray himself, but within the context of something epic.
