Tim talks new Monkeys 11 Jun, 2009 / Comments: 5

By MrManager


So we know what Ronzo thinks about the new and re-imagined Monkey Island games, and Dave Grossman is obviously the man behind TMI. But what does the third of the original Monkey Island design team think? You know... Tim Schafer... God.

Well, in a nice long interview with Joystiq, he says...

I'm excited that you can play the original one again. Dave is doing the new episodes, Dave Grossman. Other than Ron, there's probably no one else that should really be doing that. I'm really happy about that.


So there you go, you are allowed to like the games now. Read the whole interview as it's pretty entertaining.

    "What's on the back of the Brutal Legend box?"
    "A close-up of a dog in a bar that you don't talk to." Cute.

    Working on two games at once, eh? Very exciting, but I doubt even Tim could write that much dialogue at once.
