My brother has the PS2 version I completed that but something about it bugged the crap out of me....possibly the inability to gut the sometimes annoying characters....

You say you're nasty pirates scheming, thieving, bad bushwhackers, From what I've seen I tell you you're not pirates! You're just slackers!

Cough...played yes...

Monkey island 1 was one of the first games i ever played, played through all four since then.

Hands down, the coolest thing about monkey island, is insult sword fighting in monkey island 1

You fight like a dairy farmer! - How appropriate, you fight like a cow
Have you stopped wearing diapers yet? - Why, did you want to borrow one?
I´m not going to take your insolence sitting down! - Your hemorrhoids are flaring up again, eh?

and so on, best minigame ever

btw,

You can get an emulator for the PsP that supports the old lucasarts games of this type. they used an old engine that was the basis for this type of coded game.

If some of you are really gagging for it on the PsP let me know and ill try and sort out a simple readme
