[ArtemisGlitch]

Gerbals in the microwav, classic.

[MCRFanatic95]

You need a better camera, dude...

This one doesn't capture well...

[paultaite]

This is with me ol' iSight camera ... i've got my work laptop at the moment with built in iSight - seems beeeeter!!!

[Nathanomegalizer93]

dude.. nice but i have it on the nes, on the c64 does wiered ed say: Wheres the cheese? haha sooo funny

[paultaite]

Yeah !!! and when he finds it in the fridge something like "Wowie - cheese for my hamster and me" hahah!

[kevokma]

@Nathanomegalizer93 hahah he sure does! so awesome

[snake2006]

@Nathanomegalizer93

Yes it does and it wasn't censored all to hell unlike the NES version was.

Which is why it was meant to be played on the C64.

I wish I still had my original C64 disks. All I got is my NES edition.

[AmiralSAS]

So, you change the octave, change the mind while you play (at the begining we can ear clear sound and then the bass sound) and you have the good notes and the mind

In few words;

I love it !

Bien joué ;)

[paultaite]

Merci !!! Thank you

[Tihcoam]

This is a good rendition of the Maniac Mansion theme.

[rokumanxes1986]

I'm currently trying to get this game remade. If anyone can help me contact someone at LucasArts, you'd be helping greatly.

I contacted Douglas Crockford, and as interested as he is in the project, he's no longer affiliated with the company.

Great playing, by the way. I only wish there were more performances of Dave's Theme;.

[mithachan]

this is truly my favorite! awesome play..!

[wc10k]

Should have fingered it at first.

[fooooooga]

Awesome! I wish someone would cover Flashbulb Funk(Michael's song)...

[monkeyinjuly]

VERY NICE!!! I love this song and you got it dead on unlike other people who attempt to remake video game songs on guitar. 5/5

[fitsnitpit]

Very, very nice. Maniac Mansion is also in my top 10. Five star rating for you.

[ReverendShort]

I am in love with Maniac Mansion. I think you did an awesome job playing it. I want a copy of this.

Thanks for making my day.

[ManiacMansionDude]

[GameStore22]

How do you get this game for PC?

You may have to log onto a retro PC gaming forum, this is a bass guitar channel :D

[CRYP77]

YEEEAHHH, that's it!!! Maniac Mansion is one of my favourite games too, of course ^^ I'm so freaky i have a c64 emulator on my handy with MM on it :) And YOU play really really good! I uploaded some C64 tunes and remixes. You can check my vid's if you like :)
