I've uploaded them all to my web site; you can see them for yourself using the following URLs: http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w01.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w02.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w03.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w04.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w05.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w06.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w07.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w08.jpg http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/m3w09.jpg Does anyone know if this was covered in a Monkey episode? If so, which one?

To me it looks like the episode where the troupe encounters the Tiger, Ram and ? spirits. I believe what happens is that when the three of the spirits combine their powers they shoot out lightning bolts. Monkey and co. have to use a highly polished table so it reflects the bolts back at the spirits. That's about all of the episode I can remember, apart from the fact that Pigsy gets struck in the backside by one of the bolts and complains about being tender. Adrian.

I remember something about it in a magazine a couple of months ago. Apparantly its a sort of an RPG affair. Though it will be a truly difficult taks to capture the essence of "Monkey!" I don't know whether it based upon the tv show or the buddhist story though. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Jun 1998 20:35:45 +0100 From: James Broome Subject: Re: [monkey] Monkey computer game John Stagg wrote: > > Has anyone heard that a new Monkey game is being made for the Playstation? > > I remember something about it in a magazine a couple of months ago. > > Apparantly its a sort of an RPG affair.

The game is not based on the tv series but the original story ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Jun 1998 23:25:48 PDT From: "Howell Parry" Subject: Re: [monkey] Monkey computer game Hi, This game is called Monkey Hero, and features only Monkey (there's no Pigsy, Sandy or Tripitaka) in animal form. It looks like the release has been put back to November 1998. There's some info and pictures about it here: http://www.psmonline.com/jsmid/previews/3797.html Howell ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of Monkey Digest V1 #265 **************************** ----------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the Monkey Mailing List digest list, send mail to: majordomo@valinor.eldar.org with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe monkey-digest To send a message to the list, send mail to: monkey-digest@valinor.eldar.org If you have any problems or questions, send mail to: owner-monkey@valinor.eldar.org For lots more information and news about "Monkey", check out the Monkey! web site: http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8153/
