Damn, now I want a video with the whole orchestra recording session.
Right there with you. When that orchestra hit the main theme I was grinning like an idiot.
Look up danish orchestra grim fandango
THAT SCORE! GIMME THAT SCORE!
I saw this documentary a while back about an art museum, and the art restoration team talked about the difficulties of their job - where they had this painting that was really muddy on the corner because of some varnish applied during the time that it was painted, either by the original painter or by the original owner. The restoration team said that was the headache of their job - constantly trying to suss out what was more important, readability (it'd look like a better painting without the varnish) or artist's intent.
Seeing them remaster the game feels like it has a similar amount of mind games to try and work through.
Peter McConnel. what a genius
This is brilliant, you guys are awesome for doing this to this degree of perfection.
These episodes keep putting the biggest, nerdiest smiles on my face, to the point where my face hurts by the end of the video. I could not be more excited for the release!
Hey, it's Bret Mogilefsky!
I remember spazzing out on him on IRC during an interview as a kid.
I really thought I was cool too, showing him how I'd broken the game so Manny would hold several objects out of his inventory at once... To me, it was just fun. He said it made him sad. God, I must've looked like a colossal asshole.
Wow that looks much better than I expected!
I like how the 3D models blend with the prerendered backgrounds.
Pre-ordered it this morning and very excited about it. I wish we could see more of Peter Chan in the video though. Loved seeing Peter McConnell though.
I wasn't excited about this before but now I really am. It looks like it'll be amazing! I loved that game. Played it many many times and adored it.
I've always been interested in pre-rendered backgrounds in games like Grim Fandango, Resident Evil 2, Final Fantasy VII-VIII, and more. It'd be great if Double Fine can elaborate on it further. I know there's a glimpse of it at 3:31 and the dev commentary in the Remastered version but I'd love to see an in-depth look of the backgrounds and art style. Double Fine and 2 Player should consider making a video about it.
what a wonderful look behind the scenes
i had a great pleasure replaying the remastered game
will also buy tentacles and throttle on steam
hope you come up with a new game someday
best lucks
Happy to hear that the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra performed the remasted music.
Every classic LucasArts game should be remade.
9 years later, we've had Grim Fandango, Monkey Island 1 and 2, Full Throttle, and now Dark Forces. Not bad.
@@phytonso9877Curse of MI could use an upscale, it's a crime how LucasFilm is letting such perfect graphics to age.
Victor's thumbs-up at 5:58 made my day
I've never played the game before, so this is really interesting to me. Can't wait for this so I can give it a try.
Do it.
DAT GAEM!!1 When i've played this first time, I was about 12 or so. I didn't understand most of the jokes(I began to learn english in university or so). I couldn't get most of the references, but I was fascinated by the flow of the game and its conjuring way of explaining the travel of living into the land of the dead. Feelings i've had back then they're unexplainable!
That looks really nice. Looks like a good blend between modern lighting and still retaining the old style.
The part with the orchestra gave me goosebumps. I wish the remastered version would be also released for the PS3.
Guilherme Eddino If it was cross-platform, the quality would be downgraded to handle the console. No offense but it was quite the god-send that it was only for the PS4, PSVITA, PC, Linux and Mac.
***** Errr, no, it's also out on iOS and Android. It's brilliant on the iPad too.
It's perfectly reasonable to hope for it to appear on previous gen
TheBroz Oh, sorry, good point thou.
HEY thats my city! Melbourne!
Oh wow, I never really thought about it but yes, the music was practically it's own character!
Very excited to keep seeing these updates as time progresses. My mind wants to write a detailed account of why I liked what I saw, but there is only one thing my voice can utter:
MOAR! GIMME MOOAAR
If i've understood it correctly from previous videos, you will be able to switch back and forth between the new graphics and the old. Will this also be the case for the music?
Now don't get me wrong, the new live recorded music sounds amazing! But there is still a certain charm to the old score, and for me there's a lot of nostalgia associated with it. So even though i definitely want to hear the new music and see the updated graphics when i play through it on Ps4, it would be nice if i had the option to choose.
If not, it's not the end of the world. It's not like the old game is erased from existence, but it sure would be a nice feature :)
Jimmy Bump I wonder how different the music will be. I hope it doesn't come out oversized where the original score was pretty damn nuanced and subtle
wundertunge no major changes, Peter mostly replaced sampled instruments with real ones. In the video you see him record a new guitar track for a song. Stuff like that.
I agree completely; I fear some of the charm might be lost in the updated soundtrack. As far as I am concerned Grim Fandango has the best music score ever for a game
in the remastered versions of monkey island you were able to switch between 2 completely different version. The original had EVERYTHING in it's original state and the remastered version had almost everything changed. Music as well. There were big differences between the musical styles.
IMHO none of the old charm was lost, because you were able to switch at ANY given moment. So if that's the case now, then everything will be fine.
i would've been one of the "never played it" but one of my friends hyped up the remake and I got it when it came out on steam and it took me forever to beat year 2 the first time but now every few months i play it on switch. one of my favorite with how complete and filled the world is, like Majoras Mask to OoT
I still have my old cd's and am looking forward for my preorder of this :)
YEEEEEESSSS! Finally I get to play the whole game through. Back in 1998, my computer would crash at one part of the game, so I've never gotten to the end. So frikkin excited!
I can't wait to play this again all prettied up. You guys are boss.
I would like a physical copy to put next to the original, any chance of that?
Fantastic video!
Going to pre-order on PSN, can't wait!
:O
I haven't played this game for years... so excited!
Just pre-ordered this puppy. Its really nice to see these guys so passionately remaking their own game, I'm very sure this will be a great release. Amazing to think this game won game of the year with ign when games like ocarina of time and metal gear solid were coming out.
Tears of Joy man!
This is amazing.
Just pre-ordered it, I thought it was going to be released in Q2 2015 or something, but it's unlocking on Steam in four days!!
Can't wait to play it - sadly missed out on it first time around (even though I loved all the early LucasArts games, right up until Full Throttle)!
I'll buy this new version. As I have the original cd and I'm a Grim Fandango lover, I'll suggest a Grim Fandango 2 better than a remastered version of the original, don't you? I want to continue the story!
Thanks for hearing and for discover me this big world when I was a child : ) Is nice to see the people who made this game possible 15 years after, thanks to the Internet! : )
Naah,no sequels por favor
Oh! Kevin Bruner! Very cool that he worked on this game!
Awesome!
It's looking to be heading in the right direction! I'm excited.
And I'm still curious about how Glottis will look. That's the one character that suffered from the technical limitations (I even reacted to that back when the game was new and I first played it), so I'm hoping for a gently updated mesh form him that makes him look as great as he deserves, without anything of what makes him him. That's a tall order, but I think this team could pull it off. (Unless they don't dare touching him.)
The good ol' times are back guys
Nice! I have the same headphones as they have, except I have the headset variant with a build-in mic :)
Same here, except without the mic. The ones with the grey velour pads.
GOG Release - Plz give us the OST as a bonus, it's amazing musiz
Or just let us buy it separately. I'd happily pay more for it.
Dayum, Lee Petty sure is a cool duderino.
Great makeing that game good jod
And how bo you make grim fandango remastered more detales
Now please do Full Throttle as well!
yep, let's see Grim Fandango 2, Manny and Meche in Heaven story
Wonder what 3-D software package was used back then 3DS max ?
Max wasn’t around then. It was probably Alias.
Live Trace in Illustrator - job's a gud 'un.
Wow
Whats the name of the song @9:45?
"Nuevo Marrow" from the Grim Fandango OST
2 more weeks! My skin is pale as a mango...
ua-cam.com/video/y4rOgZ3RINE/v-deo.html#t=649 - This section is one of the coolest things I've ever seen in games.
Love the game but not a great remaster. Lots of the tiny objects on the ground you have to pick up are now even harder to see with the new shadows and lighting. Also a lot of the textures “remastering” wasn’t very good, look at the sprouting gun for example.
Wait, is there no tank controls? There's no way I'm playing this with point-and-click. *Edit:* I think there are tank controls.
You can play with tank controls as an option if you prefer :)
You can use either. :)
Should have just rebooted it. With ps4 graphics.
