It's comforting to know that Hermie's hollowed skull guards this hallowed bar 05 Jan, 2010 / Comments: 9

Okay, the Escape from Monkey Island Secret History article has fallen way behind. But all that means is that you've had all kinds of extra time to submit a reader opinion on the game. Yet you still haven't! So, really, it's you that dropped the ball here.

But we're giving you one last chance. The EMI article is in its final few years of production, which means that we need all second opinions received by the end of this week in order to lock them into the article before we hand it off to ImageMovers to commence all that CGI work. So send them in, ye swabs!

Also, as my way of saying thank you for not keelhauling me over the article's slight postponement, enjoy this trailer Jake probably put together back in The Day:

    That game actually existed? I thought it was all a bad dream. Time for more medication, then.

    I actually remember this trailer coming out. I thought it was official back then.
    Nice job ten years ago, Jake. ;)

    Not bad. I wonder how he created the Mojo and SCUMM Bar logo/animation at the beginning.

    Tee, that old TSB logo. Get that on the new site!

    The logo is almost impossible to work with, thanks to the wonders of .gif technology.

    If there's another file out there that could be PNGified, I have no idea where it would be.

    To Bill Tiller we must visit. To the Remimobile!

    Uh, yes, you do that. What am I paying you for?! (It never gets old. NEVER.)

    First project I ever really did in After Effects. Man this trailer! I made this video ... ten years ago (?) because I was dissatisfied with the actual EMI trailer. Few things have changed :(

    Slightly ironic end, there.
