Had a sequel to Monkey Island 2 never been made due to Ron Gilbert's departure from LucasGames, no doubt we would still be hankering for Monkey Island 3. Fortunately/unfortunately that game was made, and it taught us a valuable lesson... sometimes things are best off left alone.

Monkey Island 3 was awesome. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/IAMTHECHEESE1138/emot-colbert.gif

What does annoy me, however, is that real physical swag is getting to be a rarity in both pre-orders and in collector's editions, and is rapidly being replaced by codes to unlock exclusive items. I for one kind of liked the cheap silly little crap they used to give away with pre-orders.

That's another awesome thing about being a PC gamer. If all they're doing with those pre-order items is unlocking some code, that means that that shit is already in there somewhere, and somebody already knows how to go into the console and unlock it. For instance, if you look on the Fallout 3 wiki, you'll see several weapons that say "Available through console only", like this one: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/O%27Grady%27s_Peacemaker
