In this week's Cook Chase Podcast: the results are in from the 'Ultimate Mystery Sound Competition'. We also talk about Grim Fandango, a hot new game from LucasArts coming out in 1998; the likelihood that we'd get quoted on the new Monkey Island box; and play a new jingle sent in from a school choir (in the eighties). The following are links to items discussed:
- The Grim Fandango as an 'American painting' can be seen here (and the artist, Drew Northcott, also did one featuring Max from Sam & Max here, and one of Gordon Freeman as a Vincent Van Gough here, all for PC Gamer magazine).
- The Grim Fandango box redesign project can be seen here, on the Internet Archive (originally done 1999, archived 2005). The web-site also contains 'Meeting Minutes'.
- The Grim Fandango wide-screen video can be seen here. This is actually a more clever thing than we thought it was when recorded the podcast (more details were given on the Residual Forums, and you can also discuss the thing on our forums as well).
- Junaid's 'Sheeped Away' video can be watched here.
