Which isn't to say it's a frown-a-minute exercise in morbid contemplation it's all a bit quirkier than that. Grim Fandango looks set to be somewhat darker than previous happy-go-lucky adventures. The brainchild of Full Throttle creator Tim Schafer. It's their latest entry in a long line of distinguished graphic adventures which have included such classics as 5am And Max, Day Of The Tentacle, and their recent dick-buster The Curse Of Monkey Island. it's Grim Fandango from LucasArts, m'lud.

Bran Flakes and organic celery you can visit every homeopathic, aromatherapeutic. Sure, you can pound the streets in your jogging bottoms you can subsist on a diet of Yakult.
