This game is a great adventure game, period. It might be a sub-par Monkey Island for several reasons, but people really are missing the point here: it's a hardcore, old-school adventure game with great humor, great music and voice acting, a funny plot and some tough puzzles. I wanna say it again: as a Monkey Island game it's sub-par (but absolutely not the Satan everyone seems to remember). When it was released back in 2000 it wasn't received so bad as the reputation this game has earned throughout the years. If people weren't so stupid to bash it so unfairly, maybe LucasArts wouldn't even have stopped making adventure games... but I digress. Much, much better than the cheap-looking (and sounding) Tales of MI, which had great writing but play child puzzles. The reason why EMI's 3D is worse than ToMI's is that it's 9 years older. A must play for every adventure game (and MI) fan.
