Fan re-makes the MI2 intro 09 Jul, 2010 / 5 comments

It pays to be a Monkey Island fan: seems that someone, somewhere, was disappointed about the lack of intro in the Special Edition of Monkey Island 2, and so created their own version. In their own words:

However, the developers refrained from recreating the original game's intro, which left many fans slightly upset. That is why I wanted to step into the breach - I used trailer and in-game video material as well as the music that is played while browsing the menu (which is a remake of the original theme). Using Adobe After Effects 7, I put together a trailer, I hope many fans will enjoy.


Said fan then goes to apologize about his lack of mad skillz, and says the thing could be done better. To which I say, hey, at least you made it. Watch it here, Monkey Maniacs.

    Are you telling me they didn't even do the credits in the new style or anything with the opening?!?



    The opening bit with Elaine and Guybrush is there, but then the game cuts straight to Scabb Island for god knows what reason. They cut out the entire opening credits and the theme tune.
