Be less badass Interesting to see the review of Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga drop and at almost the same time news of a new Monkey Island, games in two of the only franchises known for being funny. That’s weird timing but what’s worse is the realisation that being funny is such a rare thing for games, which are all so desperate to be seen as badass and serious, like some teenager trying to seem ground up.

Being funny isn’t easy, I realise that, but the good Monkey Island and Lego games (neither get it right all the time) can be so funny that it almost seems strange to remember that games can make you laugh rather than just roll your eyes at their try-hardness. Monkey Island 2 is, for my money the funniest game ever, just beating Portal 2, but there really isn’t much competition.

I’ll be getting Lego Star Wars now and will be very interested to see the Monkey Island, which had a nice reveal trailer. I’m not going to even bother to hope that it leads to more new comedy games but you never know. Maybe companies will realise that a good laugh can smooth over a lot of problems, and they’re usually cheaper than expensive graphics and options.Castrol

Space to bloom Nice review of Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga I liked how it was really long and yet it still felt like you only just had time to mention everything, that alone says a lot about the game. I hope this game does well, and I will certainly buying it, as apart from anything I hope it shows companies that giving developers time to hone their work will result
