The Monkey Island Games were ok but imo Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis of all the Lucas Adv was the best. Just gone back to these games. About to try The Dig.

the dig... im downloading that now since my other version fucked up im on 87% Very Happy great game. erm... game wise monkey island 2 was hardest and funniest but number 3 had the perfect blend in terms of graphics, length, puzzles. I find it hard that any1 would hate guybrush.

are they heck. dott is good yes but far too short and easy. it'll be impossible to complete any of the monkey islands within 30mins. DOTT can be done in that time quite easily.

Now this is a series that packs so many memorable moments in it...
Those days were so different than these...no one cared about visuals, all that matter was the gameplay...

Yep, it was one of the best adventure games out there. The first 2D ones were really great, I liked them the most.

MI Series is one of my favorite games of all time.. Too bad, MI4 wasnt as good as the previous series, I prefer the game being classic and playing it by the mouse instead of the Keyboard. The best one was MI3..

The problem is adventures just dont put numbers on the balance sheet any more. Sad. What gets me is why announce Sam n max 2??? From what i heard Lucas canned it through lack of consumer interest. Surely u could research that before u annonce a project especially with so many people loving their old point and clickers. Broken sword 3 selling so badly hasnt helped.

Broken Sword 3 was crap, once they put EVERY old point and click adventure games into 3D they've had it.. Look at Runaway which come out in 2004 that sold very well and the company must of made a couple of bucks cuse their doing a number 2 Smile

Thing is, It was a high profile release. It got good reviews and had a dedicated fan base and still sank. Just after, Lucas announce its the wrong climate for an even higher profile sam n max. Sad Unfortunately were in the psx age and 3d rules. Tho wasnt Grim Fandango 3d? And thats rated by some the best adv ever. But as u say it isnt all bad Smile Theres always Emulators Smile Im hoping Longest Journey 2 lives up to the first game.

Definitely THE best series ever

I know that if they would make a sequel it would be the first game I buy in many many years cuz I just can't wait for that.

Guybrush is my all time favorite lead game character followed by Grim Fandango

My all time favorite supporting character is ofcourse hands down Murray the demonic skull Very Happy

i don't totally agree with you
broken sword 3 was not so good as the old ones, imo

but, the point is: about you talking "adventures just dont put numbers on the balance sheet any more", thats ridiculous

Pendulo Studios, a unknown producer made herself as a worldy know game factory because of her Runaway: A Road Adventure, the best adventure (click & point) game of 2004 IMO... it really rocked
it brought me a good nostalgia, bringing all the old school click & point adventure gameplay again... and it sold very well...
the proof is that Runaway 2 is already on development and will arrive soon in 2005. AND IT WILL BE GOOD.

the reason is that Pendulo Studios are taking the old school flavor with new graphics and technology, mixing it all, and not forgetting about the history, humor and gameplay

let it be a bucket of cold water on LucasArts, Sierra and all other ones who made my childhood very happy

and please, go to HELL with your fucking star wars shitty games in your ass lucasarts!

sorry for the english mistakes
