GameOn writes; 'Once again we are back for a look at the Tales of Monkey Island series. With the greatness of chapter three behind us we have to move on to the penultimate chapter. While again, we were left on a cliff hanger moment in chapter three, we pick up right where the action left off. A quick refresher for you encase you missed it: Guybrush Threepwood was betrayed by his number one fan who gave into her greed, after escaping the mad clutches of Coronado De Cava with the not so giant voodoo sponge he is knocked out and taken back to the island this story began on - Flotsam Island."
Character Evolution - Guybrush Threepwood
.... he was just so great in Monkey Island 1 and 2, design-wise.
... and then they went all cartoony with him for MI3, they went cartoony 3D with him in MI4, and they went butt-ugly redrawn sprite for the remakes of 1 and 2. Sadly.
There's some fan-art out there which shows how Guybrush SHOULD look when you do a HD-remake, which sticks true to the original design of the character while still looking great for todays' gamers.
Guybrush is such a brilliant character, but he hasn't been done justice by Lucasarts since Monkey Island 2. Sadly.
