This is fantastic: Monkey Island!

A faithful remake of The Secret of Monkey Island—and by “faithful”, I mean…it comes with a toggle so that you can seamlessly switch between the 3D-rendered-with-hand-drawn-backgrounds version and the original.

I have wished for the past fifteen years or so that some company, somewhere, would take an interest in reviving old games. Recently, this has become a reality: Good Old Games and Steam both offer classics powered by (OSS) software like ScummVM and DOSBox, and remakes like this. It makes me a happy gamer, and I gladly open my wallet for stuff like this (ironically, paying for games that I only had access to pirated copies of as a child).
