well in 1993 sam and max and maniac mansion 2 sold really well..i know sam and max sold more than 500, 000 ... i'm not sure an adventure game since then reached those numbers so 1993 was probably the peak of AG sales.. the following titles did okay but wernt really explosive.. when grim fandango came out i read a lot of great reviews for it but i couldnt get it because my computer was 2 old and i didnt have enough money 2 get an upgrade..i swear this is a large reason why PC game sales have declined..every1's got the same consoles(ps2, xbox) they aint got the same PCs.. a proper adventure game if they got the control system down right( i suggest usin the analog stick as a kind of mouse) could really do some nice sales..i think sam and max 2 would have really worked on consoles..its the type of game that would have broad appeal.. i think people want more humorous games you cant just be slashing up or shooting enemys all the time..
