Funny game. Too short though :(
The game is awesome. I loved playing through it again. I remember playing it when I was young with my sister and we put hours and hours into it. It was pretty hard back then. It was a piece of cake the second time through though.
Does this differ from the Wii release?

I am pretty sure it is different. It is the original monkey island game with a huge makeover. All the graphics were redone and there is voice over as well. It is cool when you press the back button it seemlessly switches over to the original graphics and you can play the game exactly as it used to be. The gameply is identical to the original also.
Yeah, The Secret of Monkey Island SE is an HD port (same game, updated graphics) of the first game, while Tales of Monkey Island is a brand new (the 5th, I believe) episodic game in the series.
I absolutely love that they released this on XBLA by the way.

Thanks for the clarification.
