Don't think I've seen this posted! :)

Nice to see the PSN/XBLA versions this time around, definitely be getting it off of PSN (Y) Played the first remake on iPhone, will prefer better graphics and trophies this time around!

Monkey Island:SE is on XBLA.....

This does look good, I will definately try it out.

Didn't know, just assumed it didn't hit consoles as it didn't make PSN. My bad.

It'll be interesting to see how the direct control handles, while the point-and-tap-A controls were true to the original they felt a bit out of place in a console game.

I hope Steam will have a bundle with this and the first one, as I haven't bought that yet.

Also, based on what I've seen of the first one, this can only be awesome :)

Whats the deal with this game? I never understood the hype (or played it).

I guess you need to play it then ;)

This is good news. Been quite a while since i played it..but now with updated graphics and voice dialogue, it will certainly be more fun.

Then you need to play it. IMHO SCUMM games are the best games ever released. The monkey island series has always been my favorite.

I loved this game as a kid. it was one of the first game me and my brother played on our 396 computer back in the 90s. I would definitely get it now again on XBLA.

"Oh freaking awesome! I really want Day of the Tentacle to be redone too! "

Oooh I remembered the whole dialogue voice of the introduction last time I played it (15 years ago? lol)

Oh freaking awesome! I really want Day of the Tentacle to be redone too!

I think they should have an option to toggle between the new and old graphics for nostalgia :p

They did with the first one, I'd guess they will with this one too

Love it! Out of all the games, 2 was my favourite. Witty dialogue, fantastic pacing, great environments. At that time, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis and Day of the Tentacle released Talkie versions, and I wished for them to rerelease MI2 as a talkie, and over a decade and a half later, here it is!

I remember playing this on the amiga and disk swapping the 14 or so disks. Loved it!

same. I've probably played the first 2 100 times each through my life. No doubt I will be buying the SE. I'll probably pre-order it like I did the first.
