OMG what are you guys on?! this is THE greatest adventure game in history and it should stay that way. a sequel would ruin it just like it ruined the monkey island franchise:
monkey island 1: awsome
monkey island 2: average
monkey island 3: sucked
monkey island 4: sucked
monkey island 2 average? you fail...
As with Grim Fandango. A sequel could be possible, but the only thing it would have to have in common with the first is the location.
There probably won't be a sequel. LucasArts doesn't make adventure games anymore ( bastahds!) and Tim Shaffer works at Double Fine now. Oh well. That's what we get for playing first-person-shooters: no adventure games.

i agree becasue what would the storyline be? at the end of Grim Fandango manny and meche obviously go into the 4th world or whatever so would they make more characters?? you cant beat manny and meche
sharemonkey2 is one of the best games ever, in any genre.

I agree with monkey island 4, it sucked
but the three previous were good.
but i agree with you, dont make a sequel

I agree that a sequel should never be made, even if LucasArts starts doing adventure games again.
I though CMI was pretty fun. EMI did suck, though.
What idiot thinks monkey 3 sucks???? It was definitely the best!
Hoo woo woo woo, do it hit hit, Gitter! Ooo ooo ott too OOO! Snuffer eet HOO doo!
There's something to like in all the MI games. There was very little to like in the fourth but there was something somewhere. I say, bring a GF sequel on!

As others have pointed out, a sequel would be rather odd, since the ending of Grim Fandango indicated that everyone was entitled to a Number 9 ticket after all and has either passed on or was sprouted. Still, I really enjoyed the fascinating combination of classic noir tribute and Latin American death-cults. I am sure there are more stories to be told about the Land of the Dead and its inhabitants, even if it's only to fill in some gaps between the years, especially Manny's time in Rubacava or his early years at the DoD. The possibilities for prequels are endless.
I'm still hoping TellTale will pick this franchise up sometime. Their Monkey Island episodes were pretty good (much better then MI4) and those Sam and Max games are pure works of genius for three seasons and counting.
Monkey Island is the best in the series, and 3 is absoutly great, though i find the ending to be pretty weak. four more or less sucked, but is enjoyable enough up until the Monkey Combat stuff.
Dont think id want a GF2 without Manny though...
