Hoowl Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 Although game have come a long way since i first got a pc, I still hark back to the times of the classic lucasarts point and click adventures. The scripts were fantastic, much better than anything we see in games now, some of them were hillarious; Sam and Max, Day of the Tentacle. Some of them were exciting; Fate of Atlantis, The Dig; and some of them had Haikus in the end credits; Full Throttle. Anyway, which did people enjoy most? Personally I loved Fate of Atlantis, but then I'm biased as i'm a huge Indy Fan. Also, if there are any other games you think i should add to the poll, please tell me.
Alien426 Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 I voted for The Dig, but that doesn't mean that I don't love the other games as well. Grim Fandango isn't exactly point & click.
Dalixam Posted May 10, 2002 Posted May 10, 2002 Of all adventure games, why isn't Monkey Island 1+2 on that list?
Trapezoid Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 Grim Fandango isn't a point and click... Nevertheless, it still gets my vote.
Benny Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 Mine too. A recent replay of it moved it to the top of my mental "great adventure games list"

Hoowl Posted May 11, 2002 Author Posted May 11, 2002 How the hell did i forget Monkey Island? Oh well.
sheaday6 Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 i can't believe i'm the only one who voted for Sam & Max
Metallus Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 Sam and Max is definitely my favorite Point and Click, but GF is my favorite adventure.
The Adventurer Posted May 11, 2002 Posted May 11, 2002 Personaly I think the list is a little bias to Lucasarts games, they arn't the only point and clicks out there. Where's Blade Runner? or Zork Grand Inquisitor? or The Neverhood? maybe I'll start my own poll....
Hoowl Posted May 12, 2002 Author Posted May 12, 2002 I was purely asking about lucasarts games but i agree Blade Runner was great. I loved the way you had the multiple paths so the same thing didn't happen every time. Also the way the camera panned round corners was really cool!
Vanhal Posted May 12, 2002 Posted May 12, 2002 NOoooooooooooooooooo you can't make decide, NEVER, even with out monkey island.
Wossname Posted May 13, 2002 Posted May 13, 2002 Grim Fandango is the best game yet written. Grim Fandango is the game that proves that computer games are an artform on a par with movies. Grim Fandango is the perfect blend of game and story, seamlessly blending the two. I do so love Grim Fandango. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to be alone with my inflatable Manny Calavera doll.
Trapezoid Posted May 13, 2002 Posted May 13, 2002 This thread has taken an unexpected twist. Or if it hasn't, it's about to.
Alien426 Posted May 15, 2002 Posted May 15, 2002 Will someone else please vote for The Dig. I feel like a lonely freak. Nobody loves me games.
