Does The Secret of Monkey Island even need an introduction? It's only one of the greatest adventure games ever made. Okay, maybe The Curse of Monkey Island was slightly better, but only because of Murray the Skull.

Anyway, it's going at a criminally reasonable 400 MSP this week, so yo ho ho and a bottle of rum. Or something. Arrrrrrr.

Pirates! Adventure! Monkeys! Relive the hilarious swashbuckling misadventures of the wannabe pirate Guybrush Threepwood as he attempts to become the most infamous pirate in the Caribbean! Back by popular demand, The Secret of Monkey Island™: Special Edition faithfully re-imagines the internationally-acclaimed classic pirate adventure game from LucasArts in gorgeous HD detail. Featuring an all new re-imagined contemporary art style, hand-drawn and presented in 1080p, complete voice over by members of the original Monkey Island™ franchise cast, a re-mastered musical score using live instruments, plus scene-for scene-hot swap to seamlessly transition between Special Edition and Classic modes at anytime.

Oh, and the official Monkey Island Cotton Swab and LeChuck Pirate Hat Avatar goodies are going cheap too (80 and 40 MSP, respectively).
