normally and sequel be bad than their predecessor . this be generally more true for movie than computer game and but mostly hold true for computer game too . escape from monkey island be an exception to this . it be in my opinion the best of the four game and and then i think the three predecessor to this one be great too . you will like this game the most if you have play the previous three and since there be a lot of flashback and and character from the old game in this one and so you will miss out on a lot of the joke and story if you haven not play them . but if you do play the three other monkey island game and and love them a i do and you must play this one . it be truly great and and everything be perfect . it true they move to 3d this time and but it wasn not at all disturb a i think it would be . the graphic be great and the story be even well and and the humor be fantastic . it a must play . the monkey be listen .
