By Spaff


Nicholas DePetrillo was kind enough to send us the very first reported EMI easter egg (yes it does involve starwars). As it is a spoiler you'll have to highlight the text below to get a description:

    Never heard of the site. I'm sorry, I should have guessed someone would have noticed the same thing.

    (Insert Mother tone) Mad Lord Snapcase - Did you steal that egg from the world of monkey island?!

    I haven't got the game yet (U.K. RElease date a week from now, :-( ) , But I did notice a pop-culture referrence in one of the screenshots, namely "I'm Guybrush Threepwood, Zillionaire. I own a Mansion and a Yacht". It's originally from a bugs bunny cartoon in which said rabbit and Elmer J fudd switch places through mental illness and brainwashing. The phrase bugs is forced to learn by the nasty psychiatrist is "I'm Elmer J Fudd, Millionaire. I own a Mansion and a Yacht"

    Let's not forget the Pinky and the Brain and Beastie Boys refs in the Lua Bar kitchen, now... :)

    Beastie boys?

    When you look at the brass monkeys in the kitchen, Guybrush says, "Hmm.. Brass monkey." Then a buncha people sing "That funky monkey!" like in the BB song, Brass Monkey, from Licenced to Ill. I'm not even a BB fan, I've just listened to that CD.

    yeah, i noticed that, but couldnt figure out wtf it was, i havent listened to "liscenced to ill"... that may explain why... at first i thought it was a clue. ;0)

    There was a Forrest Gump joke as well when you sat on the bench on Lucr? island... but I'm not getting the screenshot. What am I missing?

    yeah, it was also a 1138 joke at the same time... and a LEC pun. POSSIBLE SPOILER . . . RUN AWAY NOW . . . the baitshoppe owners mentions the LucreArts Entertainment Consortium (LEC)
