Tales of Monkey Island is a graphic adventure video game developed by Telltale Games under license from LucasArts. It is the fifth game in the Monkey Island series, released a decade after the previous installment. The game was released in five episodic segments between July and December 2009. Players assume the role of Guybrush Threepwood who accidentally releases a voodoo pox and seeks a cure. The game was conceived in late 2008 due to renewed interest in adventure game development within LucasArts. Production began in early 2009, led by Dave Grossman (pictured). The game received generally positive reviews, with praise for its story, writing, humor, voice acting and characterization. Complaints focused on the quality of the game's puzzle design, a weak supporting cast in the early chapters, and the game's control system. Tales of Monkey Island garnered several industry awards and was Telltale's most commercially successful project until Back to the Future: The Game. (Full article...)

Suggest adding note about 7 July 2005 London bombings? --77.98.23.140 07:31, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Tanabata is not July 7[edit]
Tanabata is on the 7th day of the 7th month in the lunisolar calendar. July 7 is not that day. Tanabata should not be listed on this date.
- I stand corrected. Apparently, the festival is now commonly observed on July 7 rather than in the 7th lunar month. LarryJeff (talk) 17:32, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
