A Bolivian Newscast was duped into showing scenes from Lost as flight 447\’s last moments. Great job checking your sources Woodward and Bernstein!

Ron Gilbert talks about the new Monkey Island games on his blogs. He also re-played the original and shares some interesting facts about it. Heh heh, he was stumped by one of his own puzzles.

Along with the Monkey Island remake, Lucasarts also announced Tales of Monkey Island, a new 5-part episodic game. It\’s made by a different game studio though, so we\’ll see how good this one is.

Coming out this summer is The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition. It\’s the classic original updated with hand-drawn graphics, voice acting, new interface, and re-mastered music. You can also swap between the new and the old version on the fly. The screenshots look pretty good. They stayed faithful to the original while modernizing the graphics.
