Back by popular demand, The Secret of Monkey Island™: Special Edition faithfully re-imagines the internationally-acclaimed classic game (originally released in 1990) for original and new audiences alike. The development team at LucasArts is bringing the game into the modern era with an all new re-imagined contemporary art style, a re-mastered musical score, full voiceover, and an in-depth hint system to help players through the game’s side-splitting puzzles. Purists will also delight in the ability to seamlessly switch between the updated hand-drawn re-imagining and the original classic version. The game's twisty plot leads our naive hero on a hilarious, swash-buckling search for the fabled secret of Monkey Island. Tales of pirate wealth lure him to the port of Mêlée with high hopes, no money, and insatiable curiosity. If clever enough, he will win the confidence of Mêlée's pirates and find himself blown by the winds of fate toward the terrifying and legendary Monkey Island -- an adventure that would chill the bones of even the most bloodthirsty buccaneer.
Wannabe pirate Guybrush Threepwood, and the now zombie pirate LeChuck, return in what has long been considered one of the greatest LucasArts adventure games of all time. Monkey Island™ 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge™ faithfully re-imagines the classic Monkey Island™ sequel in signature special edition detail. Expanding on the highly successful The Secret of Monkey Island™: Special Edition in just about every way, fans will now experience new unique special edition features and interact with the world of Monkey Island like never before. Having seemingly defeated the evil ghost pirate LeChuck in his first adventure, Guybrush Threepwood sets his sights on the legendary treasure of Big Whoop. But wait, LeChuck is now back in zombie form and he's out for revenge. Guybrush will have to use his wits, his humor and his insatiable desire for adventure to defeat his nemesis once and for all and truly prove himself the greatest pirate in the Caribbean. Voodoo dolls, spitting contests and amusement parks are just some of the challenges Guybrush must overcome as he meets old friends, fights new enemies and uses every ounce of his mojo to overcome the wrath of LeChuck’s revenge.

One of the most beautiful, and funny, games I've ever had the privilege to play. Thank you, Ron Gilbert and LucasArts.

I can remember getting these first time around when they came out on the Amiga.
The first one I finished.
Eventually.
The second one, I got stuck and refused to use a walk through.
Worth it at this price and don't forget your rubber chicken.

Tempted. My other child hood fave was Wings on the Amiga. I bought Wings and absolutely hated it, what I remembered but so repetitive. Really don't want to spoil my childhood memories of these classics.

Great memories such as Day of the Tentacle, Grim Fandango and the Broken Sword series.

That wasn't Monkey Island 3. The one released in 2009 was Tales Of Monkey Island, the episodic game released by Telltale, that's more or less Monkey Island 5.
Monkey Island 3 was released in 1997 and was called The Curse Of Monkey Island. The fourth one was released in 2000 and was pretty terrible.
