Look! A three-headed monkey! Yes indeed, I grew up on a ton of amazing games in what people consider to be "the golden age of video gaming", but if I had to name one game as my all-time favorite, it would have to be The Secret of Monkey Island. So, it should come as no surprise that I'm excited as hell about how they just announced an upcoming Special Edition of the game (along with some new installments to the series). For the special edition, they redrew the entire game and recorded voice tracks for all the characters which actually look and sound pretty damned good. They seriously did a great job staying faithful to the original as you'll soon see. As if that's not enough, the game actually allows you to switch seamlessly between the new artwork style and the original pixelated graphics depending on which you prefer. How's that for pleasing the fans?
Check out this behind the scenes trailer from Destructoid to learn more about it:
I really couldn't be more excited about this game and I hope those of you who never had a chance to play The Secret of Monkey Island when you were younger will give it a shot. It's really the game that got me interested in making games of my own because it was the perfect blend of humor and adventure. Hell of a good soundtrack too.
Of course, we've done a few Monkey Island spoofs of our own here on I-Mockery so be sure to check 'em out as well:
-A Monkey Island Feast
-Monkey Island: The Director's Cut
-Monkey Island 2 Outtakes
So who here is as excited as I am to bust open a can of Grog and play the ultimate wannabe-pirate adventure once again?
Don't forget! TONIGHT, Friday May 22nd, is the LAST new episode of the month so be sure to catch it LIVE at 10pm PST on thestream.tv! The network is going on a 2-week hiatus so they can upgrade the site so that all of the shows can be viewed in widescreen! So yeah, when we return on June 12th, the show is going to look even better for all of ya!
We'll probably be staying up EXTRA late tonight since it's the last show before the break, so be sure to stick around after the movie is over! We'll probably have some fun post-show antics taking place and who knows what else. Miss Diagnosis and I hope to see all of you in the chat rooms tonight!
And remember, in addition to being on thestream.tv, the show will also be streaming live on both justin.tv and ustream.tv in their "thestreamdottv" channels. Wherever you happen to be watching the show from, be sure to hop in the chat rooms so you can blab it up with all the other insomniacs as we watch another movie together! See ya there!
Lastly, if you missed episode 3 last Friday, you can catch up on it before the show tonight as it's now archived online!

Hey guys, sorry the site has been acting up over the past few days. We've been working on getting some o' the problems with the server worked out along with a few coding glitches. Everything appears to be up 'n running smoothly again now, so let's hope it stays that way. If you encounter any errors on the site, please report them to me so we can get 'em taken care of pronto.
For those of you who didn't catch the live episode of Doc Mock's Movie Mausoleum last week, we actually had a lengthy post-show that was a lot of fun. The post-shows are never archived, so that's yet another reason to watch the show when it airs LIVE. However, I did manage to get a 5-minute clip from the post-post-show (yes the show after the post-show) in which my guest, Alex Berg, and I invaded the control booth to get down and boogie. You'll see the dancing start around the 1 minute clip. Good times!
Of course, if you missed episode 3 last Friday, it has now been archived online so you can view it whenever you so desire!
