I played the demo. As a long time Ron Gilbert fan, I was really looking forward to it since it was first announced. I've kept up with Ron's blog since the very beginning, so it was cool having already been familiar with the orgins of DS. Definitely has a lot of that old Monkey Island style humor, only, I realized, I was really young when I played the first two Monkey Island games and still appreciate them on a nostaligic level, but I find the humor of Deathspank to be very unappealing and rather juvenile; the intentionally bad voice acting was kind of a tired old cliche to use too. I guess nostlgia for the MI games and other Gilbert projects isn't enough to make me want to play it.
