allrighty; 10:28pm here in Australia - set my alarm for 3am; watchin the MJ thing on telly and playing it in the ad breaks (though i think i may end up by abandoning the television altogether)
I'm fine with 5 GMT because that's shortly after I finish work anyway.... It'd be worse knowing it's been released but I can't play it
On another not, isn't it so awesome to see so many people excited about the release of a new episode in an adventure game franchise released 15 years ago or so?

I've set my alarm for 3am as well. Hopefully it will be up by then so I can get a couple hours of gameplay in before I have to go to work at 7.30am.
Well, I'm off to sleep. I'll probably actually get out of bed by around 7 in the morning, rather than sleeping in like I usually do on days off. Wouldn't want to play at 3 AM... be too tired and then I'd end up being tired the whole day. What a waste.
Enjoy mashing F5 like a bunch of... um... impatient Monkey Island fans.

If I didn't have to go to work tommorow I would just sleep in till 9am like I normally do and then play MI all day but since I have to work I don't want to wait until 6pm before I get to play for the first time so really early morning for me tommorow.
whoa...that was FAST! i just read it! stumbled across it through current...it didnt really have any spoilers, and gave the game an 8.5...i wonder why it was taken down..?
In short...an awesome game. The only real negative thing was the control scheme and then they mentioned the character graphics could be a little better.
It sounded like from the review that it was challenging, this is something that pleases me > I'm glad to hear these puzzles aren't going to be wimpy. (Hint System can lower the difficulty level so not to worry for those who might have trouble)
Likely the 360 version that will likely come-to-be in the future. I can live with W&G style, and if it helps them enough financially for them to keep pumping out adventure games in the future then I can live with it, but yeah, point and click is way better. When playing MI, humour is #1 for me though.
Okay, I'm going to say it. It's just my opinion though, of course.
I don't like the idea of pointing and clicking in a 3D game.
I may even... *gasp* ...use a gamepad with Tales of Monkey Island.
And don't get me wrong; I enjoy playing all sorts of games.
New ones, old ones, text-based, rogue-likes that have an action assigned to nearly every key..
I've played it all, so I have a lot of experience with games of all sorts of different control schemes.

They had point and click in the 360 version of sam & max, and it worked quite well.
...hated the mouse only option. not gonna mess about with that anyway-sounds rushed to try and please everyone. i'm sure keyboard+mouse will work fine for those of us with 2 hands

Which is what I've been saying since they abandoned it.

Some stuff seems missing?

I wouldn't count on it... You still have to take into account that there will be about a billion people who want to download this at the same time...

I didn't think of that. I never played Sam and Max on 360 either, though.
indeed but it is like this since they changed the count down on first page
