Shacknews have posted a screenshot from the upcoming Monkey Island 2: Special Edition, which has some of the developer commentary in action. The commentary, which is being provided by Monkey Island creators Ron Gilbert, Tim Schafer and Dave Grossman (a trio some of the more "hardcore" sections of the Monkey Island fandom insist you learned about in Sunday school), will cover a wide array of topics, including the sharing of some memories and behind-the-scenes thoughts on the game.
Comment on the commentary screenshot in our comments section (hohoho!).
jp update: LucasArts' Craig Derrick comments on facebook: "Couple things about the commentary: It's a toggle, so you can press a button whenever the commentary symbol pops up and hear the guys speak. You can do this over and over if you'd like. Also, the game screen will shrink within a frame when commentary is on so that no gameplay is obstructed (unlike this screenshot). And, lastly, the commentary will work during classic mode. END OF LINE"
