just got it, thanks.

So what do you think of the game so far?

Just to be nitpicking a bit, but Monkey Island was a multiplatform-game to begin with, and already back then released on PC. So calling it an Amiga-game is a bit misleading

If the OP called it "Monkey Island" in the first place it would have helped too, for those who are blocked on those links at work and had to wait 8 hours to view them!

Well, it was released  for Amiga, so it was an Amiga game. Not surprised someone would find a away to put a negative spin right away on here though. Regardless hope those with fond memories will enjoy.

Not sure how you see any negative spin in the replies, but you could've made the title a bit clearer. Saying "Monkey Island 2" straight out instead of "old Amiga game" would make it look more interesting, not to mention more informative

This is why I don't post to much.
And your welcome amiga92570 .

It took an hour to download last night on Steam, I will try it this weekend when I have time. You get Monkey one and two on Steam.

Dont forget that Pinball Fantasies etc are released on Playstation Network for download to your PS3 Ive played it alot!

I do not own a 360 anymore so I dont know if you can get it there :/

But I got Monkey Island on my PS3, one of my all time favorite Adventure Point and click games

bloodmoney, I don't see what was wrong with Britelite's clarification and how you felt offended by it. Your informing us about MI2 remake is appreciated by all, I think.

[amiga92570]

I wish others would remake some classic games. Sierra had some good ones also. I would also love to see M.U.L.E. remade with enhancements. My grandkids still play mule on 64. I have heard there was a simular game on amiga, forget the name.

[bloodmoney]

Yea, would love to see an HD version of Simon the Sorcerer as well.

[som99]

I would love to see scummVM engine games, also Tearaway Thomas, Toki, Super Cars 2, Alkatraz.
Moonstone would rock on my PS3!

There is so many games I would love to see, tho rights disbutes weather emerged ,splitted companies cant decide who owns the rights to a game would make it hard

Edit: Pang would be rock solid in 2players on the PS3!

Steam has loads of good games - AND usually have weekend sales that are amazing. I recently bought Serious Sam (One and Two) for $4.99, and Painkiller (two of them). They also have Bioshock - which an excellent, if somewhat off beat, game.
It's a shame they don't (yet?) offer any in Amiga format...
