Monkey Island 2 Special Edition Footage! (Now Removed) 26 Apr, 2010 / 10 comments

Update: The videos have been removed from Youtube by LucasArts -- but they cannot be removed from the brains of those who saw them, and the discussion of what was seen continues. We have also now been given a list of the achivements unlockable in the game (see below). Craig Derrick, LucasArts Producer, tweets "[I am] frustrated over a great many things."

Original Post: LEAKED VIDEO FROM MI2 SE STOP EVERYTHING AMAZING STOP COMEDY NARRATOR STILL THERE ALAS STOP BUT BEST MENU EVER STOP

A full High Definition version of that video is available here. There is also a version without the opening cut-scene skipped (but without the scenes in Woodtick) available here. In both videos the sound drops out of sync with the action, but that is a fault of the video itself, rather than the game.

Both videos have been captured from the Xbox 360 version of the game, which, together with PS3 and PC versions, will be released in internet stores this summer.

Screen captures from the video, and all the up to the minute news and discussion, can be found on our forums (specifically, here and there.)

Update: Thanks to forumer Threepwood4life, we now have a new video listing the achivements unlockable in the game:

* Complete Part One, Two, Three, and the whole game (four achievements)
* Finish the game in under three hours
* Finnish the game without using a hint
* Finish the game using less than 10 hints
* Switch to classic mode at least once
* Call the LucasArts helpdesk
* Guybrush inhales helium
* Complete the game using object highlighting 5 times or less
* Allow Guybrush to die

A video showing the achivement list is linked here.

    Impressive. Great animation. It all looks really nice.

    Not sure about Largo's voice, though hard to say from that short snippet.

    Agreed, the music seems excellent. Particularly the whistling Scabb island music.

    Mostly all great, but Largo's voice seems very weak.

    Whoo! Twisted metal rods! :D
    Too bad Dom didn't do Largo though. Looks quite good, much better than SMI:SE at least.
