Return to Monkey Island Director Explains Why Pixel Art 'Didn't Feel Right'

Return to Monkey Island director Ron Gilbert says the game doesn't feature pixel art because he didn't want it to be considered a throwback – and has responded to those who have criticised the long-awaited sequel's new looks. In a blog post , Gilbert addressed fan criticism of Return to Monkey Island's art style as it doesn't match the art of the first two games, to which it's a direct follow-up . But Gilbert said this sequel wouldn't look like the first two games even if he'd developed it in the early '90s, because the point wasn't to have pixel art but to instead use the latest and greatest technology. "Monkey Island 1 and 2 weren't pixel art games. They were games using state-of-the-art tech and art," he said. "If I had stayed and done Monkey Island 3 it wouldn't have looked like Monkey Island 2.

Unreleased Version of the Infamous Duke Nukem Forever Seemingly Leaks

Duke Nukem fan website Duke4 shared details from a 4Chan post that seemingly shows gameplay footage and several screenshots of what is essentially a completely different game to the eventual 2011 release. The 2001 version – of which "a huge chunk" is apparently playable – looks more similar to the previous game, 1996's Duke Nukem 3D, than the Forever we eventually got in 2011.
