I think I might've had the best Monkey Island experience of anyone: I'd kind of overlooked the
Tales or
Special Editions hype until recently, less than a couple weeks ago, when I got both of the SEs.
Yeah, imagine getting back into the familiar world of MI voodoo and grog after more than a decade, all new again (although I mostly played in the Classic mode with voices turned off, for nostalgia's sake) and playing the 1st and 2nd chapters end-to-end, before dusting off my
Curse discs and wandering about Plunder Island for a while when I decided to skip ahead and check out
Tales at last

and before you could say "sexyfish" I was already in Skipper Cay and on my way to finishing the series in a few days.
So yea, I just went from
Secret to
Pirate God in more or less one sitting

and enjoyed every minute of it.
This is why I love gaming: you can relive nostalgia in a way not possible with movies and stuff. Here's looking to more revivals down the road <3
