Does anyone know what happened to the much anticipated game GALLEON, produeced by the guy that created Lara Croft. Has it been released and I missed it? Has it been canned? Or is it still in production (God help us)!

It was on the original demo disc for the Cube in May 2002 so surely its finished by now!

Anyone out there with any info?

It doesn't matter if we do or not you'll still do it.

You always do...

I didn't know there was a space in my name (makes random noises).

So go suck a lolly whilst I make my presumptions about a game we've both never played...

After meeting Toby at ECTS and doing a quick on the spot interview he does make it out to be a stunning game.

Also, he is sending me a free copy for review.

Sweet :)

1) Monkey Island 4 is fully 3D
2) All Monkey Island games are 'fully playable'
3) Monkey Island games are point and click adventures, Galleon is an adventure/platform game.
4) Monkey Island features witty dialogue, quirky puzzles and laughs a plenty, Galleon is a serious adventure game.


Now I could go on, but with any luck you should see the point now. Both games feature pirates, the similarities end there.

Now take your retarded views on games somewhere else, because clearly you've never played a Monkey Island game or you couldn't have made such a ridiculous comparison.

It's an adventure game where you have to make choices that effect your way through an island.

Must be talking about a different Galleon then.
