My only real gripes would be that it is too short and there is no replayability. There were however, several slightly absurd moments, where it leaves you without the slightest clue on where to go or what to do, but there is a handy hint feature (hold the X button) to help you during those times. Being able to switch between the new and old graphics at the click of the button was interesting, as I never realized how horrible games looked back then. Not to mention, that even after all this time, the game is still very funny. It was quite refreshing to play a game from a genre that is all too dead, and it was quite challenging trying to figure out what to do along the way. Seeing as the game is practically as old as myself, it is no surprise that I have never played the original, however I really enjoyed myself with this one. There are also numerous unique and funny characters that will help, and hinder, you along the way. You must explore the islands, interact with the environment, and experiment with your items, in order to complete the tasks presented to you. You play as Guybrush Threepwood (ridiculous name I know), on his journey to become a ruthless pirate. Updated with enhanced graphics and a complete voice-over, makes the game seem truly modern even the humor hasn't lost its edge after all this time. Originally a PC game released during the early 90's, this return of the point-and-click adventure allows a new generation to enjoy the slap-stick comedy of The Secret of Monkey Island.
