They are kinda right, in that there are the "Tales of Monkey Island" and "Sam n Max" series that have been released - but there is only the "Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition", which has the old game, but with an updated skin or something.
From what I've played, it's exactly the same bar the graphics and SCUMM update.
The MI & Sam n Max series are okay, I guess - I tried to get SnM series for Wii, but it's been stuck at 98% for about 2 months now...
I don't think I'll be playing it anytime soon.
Wasn't the prize for the Monkey Island competition a series of "Tales of Monkey Island"?
I know I do it too, but we should really make an effort to not bash the noobs so hard...
The dude was just trying to preach to the choir, is all.
