I like gritty crime/detective stories. I absolutely loved Post Mortem and Still Life, but I guess they have a bit of a twist to them; they're not just your typical CSI murder cases. I've never actually played an adventure game based on an existing property like a TV show, but I'd have to assume that most of them are mediocre.

I'll tell you two common adventure game traits that really grate on me:

1) Bouncing from one country to the next, with no sense of travel
2) Underground secret cults being the cause of everything
