Take a look at how well Telltale is handling being responsible for the continuation of one of the most beloved adventure game franchises of all time.

This is the first few minutes of the first installment of Tales of Monkey Island, due out next week on the PC and Nintendo Wii.

Yeah, we'll go with that.
