Has a release date been given for this? And is it going
to be a timed exclusive or simultaneous release?
Forgive my ignorance...

Joystiq you are teasing me too much. Monkey Island is one of my all time favorite series! For anyone curious, the release date is supposedly July 15th. 1920x1080 widescreen!!!!!

Thanks for the release date, I wasn't aware.
Damn you, I shouldn't be thanking you. I was already playing the waiting game for Skate 3, Red Dead Redemption and now Monkey Island 2 SE.

Guess you're right. Looking at the screens, the overall art design looks a tad more faithful to the source material. When playing the originals, I always thought of guybrush being funny, but not goofy-looking.
Oh, and about the new controls, I'm guessing they'll work just fine. Back then, a mouse was the way to go, but nowadays, I'm kinda glad they'll try and adapt the game to a more regular controller scheme.

Awesome job :) I love how you can switch between the old and new graphics at any given time.
