Found a complete copy of Sega CD: Secret of Monkey Island

Is this a game worth having? Is it worth $25.00? It is complete with a pretty decent cardboard box, instructions, game disc and jewel case.

I enjoyed it on the PC... Don't know about the SCD version though~

I've played both versions a bit.
I dunno if I would pay $25 for a boxed copy though.
Although, that was the older cardboard box style that is kinda hard to find in good condition.
Depends on how much of a collector you are. You probably won't find it in complete condition too often.

I am a fan of the Monkey Island games so I obviously will recommend that you play this and the other games in the series. As for the Sega CD version, I would probably do some research. If it does turn out to be a quality rendition and if you do want to play it on a console then go for it.

It was a pretty spot on conversion IIRC... I have never played it first hand, so my question would be are the wait times horrid. Its a game that will play identically on the PC as SCD

I've read that the load times are pretty long on the Sega CD version. Personally, I can tolerate slow load times on these older systems, I'm not very tolerant of them on newer systems however.

I only played the original Monkey Island on PC, but I thought it was a very fun game. Hopefully you enjoy yours too.

Hey, are you talking about the auction that is currently on ebay??? Maybe I should take an interest in that too.
