Oh boy, 2022 best year ever!?

Ben benieuwd, eerste 2 Monkey Island games waren geweldig, daarna is het snel afgegleden…

 

Een nieuwe Monkey Island wil ik wel weer spelen. Vroeger veel plezier mee gehad met de serie.

 

Maar Ron Gilbert is nu terug!

 

I know. Dat geeft hoop. Hopelijk lijkt Guybrush nu gewoon weer op Guybrush uit 1 en 2 (niet HD).

Same, beetje floppy’s wisselen op de Amiga 500, en soms compleet vastzitten want geen internet op de oplossing op te zoeken.

Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis was ook goed. Stuk minder grappig dan Monkey Island natuurlijk, maar prima point & click adventure game.

 

Fate of Atlantis ook veel gespeeld vroeger. Volgens mij heb ik alle Point & Click games wel gespeeld destijds. Van alle Sierra games tot alles Lucas Arts games. En dan zelf walkthrough maken van Engels naar Nederlands om deze dan bij de bibliotheek af te geven en zo gratis nieuwe games te huren. Win win situatie. Zo ook veel Engels geleerd.

 

Die spellen zijn overigens nog prima speelbaar op moderne systemen. Check GOG.com .

 

Dat klopt. Zo heb ik Gabriel Knight een tijdje terug gespeeld en heb de king’s quest ook in de bibliotheek staan van GOG.com

 

Uitgesteld naar 9 Augustus.

Klinkt wel goed dat deze nieuwe Monkey Island na deel 2 gaat afspelen waar vele gamers en fans van de oude monkey serie al lang op hebben gewacht.

 

Na de 8-bit en 16-bit indie periodes begint nu eindelijk de PSX/N64 nostalgie era?
Ik heb al meerdere N64 / PSX lookalikes gezien de laatste tijd.

 

Oi, nostalgie! Games zijn onderdeel van de aankoop en worden maandelijks toegevoegd aan jouw bibliotheek. Inclusief development tools.

 

Ratcheteer ziet er wel heel gaaf uit!
