Get yer Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 1 demo all fast-like

by Randy Nelson { Jul 8th 2009 at 5:40PM }

If, for some unfathomable reason, Ludwig's review of Tales of Monkey Island: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal didn't have ye partin' with yer pieces of eight for the full game, perhaps a free demo is what ye be after. Our mateys at BigDownload have weighed anchor on the 187MB download and it's yers for the takin' -- without any waitin' -- over at their site. Oh, and we wouldn't try runnin' it on a pirated operatin' system if we were you. Savvy?

*sigh*

I guess I'll have to boot to windows after all.
Why you make me do this!

Nicely done - got it in 24 seconds!

Christopher Grant @ Jul 8th 2009 6:02PM

BigDownload sho is fast!

Courtney @ Jul 8th 2009 6:09PM

I'm on an EVDO modem, estimated time: 1 hour and 1 minute.

Damn country living...

Is your avatar supposed to be John Locke?

Courtney @ Jul 9th 2009 12:06AM

If you're asking me, no, that's not John Locke, it's actually a sketch drawing of me done a couple of years ago.

vidGuy @ Jul 9th 2009 10:25AM

@Henry, yeah it's Locke. I actually had "LOST" in bold under him for a while but felt like it made it too busy.

Snowblind @ Jul 8th 2009 6:24PM

The game is awesome, Telltale have done an amazing job with it.

Shagittarius @ Jul 8th 2009 6:29PM

I'm waiting for the inevitable boxed release when the "season" is complete.

Snowblind @ Jul 9th 2009 4:26AM

Order from Telltale and they'll send you the DVD when it's all released anyway. They were also doing a special edition where you get a limited edition cover made by Steve Purcel.

That's as close as you're going to get to a retail release.

HappyFunBall @ Jul 8th 2009 6:45PM

This thing have any sort of DRM attached to it?

Oh, and Shag, you can pre-order the whole season through Telltale, and then just pay shipping for the boxed release when it comes out.

I have to say the demo was stellar! I sort of want to wait for a possible 360 release, though... I have too many other games on the go right now anyway...

Time-Pirate @ Jul 9th 2009 5:47AM

Any word yet on when the next episode's out? I hate cliffhanger endings...

Snowblind @ Jul 9th 2009 7:12AM

They're being released monthly, but there's no word on an exact date.
If you hate it that much though, you could always just wait for the whole thing to be released before playing :P

I think the episodic thing works great here.
