MI2:SE - What went right?

[CheeseChomper]

LucasArts have now updated Monkey Island 2 on Steam. There are a few bugs that have been fixed, including the Dinky Island jungle music not showing up, a few puzzle timing issues (Stan, the spitting contest), the bone song has been re-synced and even the original intro and (apparently) outro with the "do something constructive" lines have been restored. For the intro, you have to switch to classic mode either as soon as you hit new game or as soon as guybrush finishes saying "some of my admiring fans were.....", as the intro with the dancing monkeys is only available in that mode. Still, you do get guybrush's "hey! You guys get out of here!" line voiced.

Nice, too bad they haven't done it for the Xbox version yet.

...it was sort of weird they removed the Max costume from the costume shop for instance.

The Max costume was removed because LucasArts no longer own the rights to 'Sam & Max'.

I doubt either Steve Purcell or Telltale would have minded.

Maybe they didn't want to give 'free advertising' to Sam & Max, instead opting to advertise their own franchises (Maniac Mansion in this case).

I haven't played this yet. Does Elaine sound good? I won't ask about Guybrush coz that's a given But Elaine sounded a little...hyper in CMI. I don't want it to be like this in MI2: LR too.

She's still voiced by Alexandra Boyd and ever since she came back to the role I think she's been far more low-key with her performance than in CMI (which I attribute to the fact that she's a tad bit older now than when she voiced Elaine in CMI). She sounded good.

Well, that's a relief

I think she sounds weird.
