Escape From Monkey Island

"If it’s any indication of what’s possible on the PS2, I hope that more developers will go the route of LucasArts and convert their titles over to this new platform. This is simply one of the best play experiences to be had on the PS2 today, and comes highly recommended to anyone interested in excellent gameplay, well-written dialogue, or laugh-out-loud humor."

"Escape from Monkey Island, specifically, features a plethora of in-jokes and recurring characters, all constructed on the premise that you've played the previous installments."

"Amazingly, the keyboard-driven controls translate well onto your gamepad... Other than the various control-related tweaks, however, Escape from Monkey Island PS2 isn't much different from its PC cousin..."

"It loses nothing in translation, and its graphics fare even better on the PlayStation2... It's one of the more unusual games available to date for the PlayStation2, and its warm, tropical environments and great cast of characters will make you feel right at home right away."

"The PC version of Escape from Monkey Island has already received raved reviews from the press and has been nominated by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences in three categories for the 2001 Interactive Achievement Awards..."
