Grande Guybrush. La saga Monkey Island es la mejor en toda la historia de las aventuras gráficas clásicas. Los millones de fans quisiéramos que Ron Gilbert y Tim Schaffer realicen una nueva entrega.

In many ways, Monkey Island 2 is better than the first. It ups the graphics, it ups the humour and it ups the story. It uses a similar formula to the first game, with some changes mostly for the better. This manages to be a much darker game than Monkey Island 1, yet still appealing to the same audience. The hint system is still there, which annoys me, however it still manages to be my personal favourite in the franchise. Lucas Arts perfected their brilliant sequel and will go down as one of the best adventure games of all time. If you liked the first Monkey Island, you will definitely love this one.

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge is a game to be played for the nostalgia factor, and for those who never played it the first time. I'd also throw in die-hard fans of the series, but people new to the franchise will be left scratching their heads unable to grasp what the big whoop was in the first place.

Even with the glitches, I absolutely loved my time with Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge. It's so good that I can't believe I missed out on it the first time around, but I'm glad that I got a second chance thanks to this reimagining.

But with extras like an included director's commentary featuring the creators of the game discussing its crafting, inspirations, and history, Monkey Island 2 is still a satisfying experience for players new to the game and for nostalgiaic fans revisiting this game today.

Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge is everything fans of the series would expect from a high-definition remake.

It is not in the new interpretation that this package fails to deliver, but in its presentation of a classic that demands a lot more respect and attention to detail than Special Edition delivers.

The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition e Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge, sono due acquisti che consiglio di fare ad occhi chiusi a chiunque, considerando anche il prezzo “budget” (tra l’altro la versione retail, Monkey Island: Special Edition Collection, contiene entrambe le avventure, storyboard, bozzetti e le colonne sonore complete rimasterizzate di ciascun gioco, tutto in un’unica confezione!). Non lasciatevi sfuggire queste perle di rara bellezza, che a distanza di oltre 20 anni sono ancora considerate metri di giudizio per le produzioni odierne. Ritroverete quella magia che si è persa col passare degli anni e con l’evolversi del mercato che gira attorno ai videogiochi e delle preferenze dei giocatori stessi che hanno abbandonato un genere che poco a poco stà morendo. Esperienze di questo stampo devono essere provate almeno una volta nella propria vita, per far rivivere anche a chi ancora non c’era momenti indimenticabili della storia videoludica. Il voto che assegno a queste “edizioni speciali” non è ovviamente lo stesso che darei all’originale, per ovvi motivi, altrimenti il 10 sarebbe garantito ma lo rende comunque un acquisto imprescindibile. Se non avete mai visto una scimmia a tre teste, è il momento giusto per farlo!

Just like the Special Edition of the original Monkey Island, this is also an excellent graphical remake that makes it the best way to enjoy this classic today. In any case, it doesn’t reach the level of the first installment, but it’s still an excellent adventure.
