Exactly! That alone is enough for me to preorder it.

Maybe it is an acquired taste - But if you love Schafer's quirky sense of humor, going back to all the things he has been involved in: The Monkey Island series, DOTT, Full throttle and especially Grim Fandango, you simple HAVE to at least try this game.

Of course it also helps that the music is exactly what I loved about the 80's metal - the only thing missing is the old-school Metallica tracks - but I guess that w...

But it is way too short! I finished it in a couple of hours.

I'm beginning to see a problem with the episodic format from Telltale games - Each episode tends to be shorter than the previous one, and there are fewer and fewer episodes in each game! :(

Oh well - Brütal Legend is nearly here!

According to the creator, 1500 hours... No word on how many LEGO bricks.

I'm not comparing anyone to my grandparent - I'm telling you that I seriously don't know anyone that has a SD tv anymore.

Everyone has switched to HD. They are so cheap now that it makes sense to switch just for the savings on the electric bill. So in childrens bedrooms, clubs, public information screens on train stations, etc. all are HD.

The only sub-HD screens I can think of are in smartphones, GPS units and maybe portable DVD players in cars. Everything else is ...

What? Do you have info to back that up?

I don't know anyone who doesn't have a HDTV - Hell, even my grandmother who's 96 has a HD TV - She even has net access!

I don't have access to either, I only got the Windows version, so I was asking an honest question.

So you information about Monkey Island doesn't mean anything to me.

But thanks for answering in such a mature way. :-/

the new Monkey Island already did that?

On the Windows release there are 5 episodes launched 1 month apart. and the first episode was released a month ago, but maybe Peter didn't know that? ;)

I wouldn't trust anything Molyneux says. He has a long history of overhyping and underdelivering.

Sure, I liked Populous on the Amiga in the Bullfrog days, but that was a loooong time ago.

Did Laura just chainsaw Guybrush Threepwood?

That is... seriously disturbing!

Right now, you can select to have the PS3 output sound on either the HDMI or the S/Pdif TOSLink plug, but not both.

I guess FW 3.0 will allow both to work simultaneously...

Edit: Ah, JR beat me to it.

Normally, the Nordic versions comes with the English soundtrack.

This danish e-shop lists the Nordic version as having english audio: http://www.coolshop.dk/cata...

Maybe you should talk to someone about it? :P

Well, maybe this is a gaming site, but it is a hardware thread in the industry forum.

If you feel so insecure about Linux/Ubuntu, just ignore the post.

I know, but that's kinda the crux of the difference between Windows and Linux, right?

That framework contains a lot of bloat that may never be required, while linux aims to be as slim as possible. So besides the new "slimmed down" UI in Windows 7, there's still a lot of crap there that I may never use. Nothing new there.

My point about boot times was mainly about a statement I read elsewhere that claimed that Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.04 power-to-browser boot ...

But it still takes 3 times longer to boot than Ubuntu 9.04 in my VBox tests...

So meh.

For some reason, I just keep getting back to this game even after finishing it, just to see if I can improve on the score a teeny little bit...

It was worth $20, it is definitely worth $5.

Ahem.

I've stopped using St€am until they figure out that they shouldn't f*ck their non-US customers over by assuming that 1 US dollar equals 1 Euro.
