Check out everything Destructoid did today
Ron Gilbert, ofMonkey Islandfame, as well as the recentThe Cave(presently free on PS+!), wrote a blog post: “If I Made Another Monkey Island…” Like O.J. Simpson’s bizarre bookIf I Did It, Gilbert adamantly stated that he isnotmaking anotherMonkey Island. Several times. Don’t get your hopes up. No, this is more an interesting thought experiment on Gilbert’s behalf. One which didn’t tickle me as it did many. I find a lot of the retro tenets (insane logic) of adventure games to be a bit non-functional. Still, interesting. Begin speculating against Gilbert’s behest. I mean, LucasArts is no more, right?
