It's taken me like 5 years to buy Monkey Island 2, but I'm going to buy it, darn it!
And how do I go about doing this with a Windows XP computer?
I was thinking about getting this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8262031198
use www.scummvm.org to play it on xp
Okay, thanks, heh.
I've got Xp and SCUMMVM, and the monkey island 2 demo didn't work. (Good thing I played the game on the amiga then.)
So.. if you really want to be cautious you could download the demo off the aforementioned scummvm website and download scummvm itself and see if the demo works.
What exactly was the problem, Matt?
I've played MI2 twice using ScummVM, and it should work just fine.
Erm....... I can't remember.
*Downloads the demo again and runs it through scummvm.*
It gets to the campfire bit, and a pop-up shell screen (Sorry Amiga term) comes up with ERROR: Room 5 not in room 5
Something like that. Hmmm maybe it's just a dodgy demo file then?
EDIT: I tried it without scummvm and instead of the campfire the demo goes into the toll bridge cutscene. Methinks scummvm tried to load up monkey demo like it was the full game? This demo appears to be a rolling demo, and it has no sound, or the sound isn't working. Dammit! I wanna hear the largo legrand theme tune!
Don't buy it. I heard it sucks. ¬¬
Maybe, but I might like it anyway. Besides, Monkey Island 1 comes with it, and I broke my Monkey Island CD.
I just played through all 4 in the last week and before that i thought it sucked but i had a blast this time (first time i played it on hard) its well worth the money (its well worth more then that) I have an original copy on floppies still in the box with all the Literature and i'm thinking about selling it

The shifty eyes in his post were supposed to show that.

I've not actually played it myself, but I have a friend who would go seriously psycho if he haerd anybody say that.
The problem is that Monkey Island 2 has a sense of humor, unlike this thread.
Well, MI 2 is the worst of 1/2/3!
Your opinion differs from mine, you're my biggest enemy now.
