Born late '81, started with Amiga (Adventure game wise) about '87. Lived through the absolute Golden Age of Adventure Gaming (and console gaming for that matter). Dad was a teacher and somehow used to get heaps of pirated games for me through his school. Started with Sierra games like Larry 1 and Police Quest 1 and the others in the series. Had a friend down the road about my age with an Amiga two and all we did was play games in every free moment.

Then moved on to the Lucasarts games, namely DOTT (which will always remain my fave game of all time) and Monkey Island 1 and 2.

Now days don't play much else besides FIFA 12 and NBA 2K12 but still keep up with everything gaming.

Also LOVE the Zelda series, Link to The Past is up there in top 3 of all time, as is Super Mario World.

Edit: Forgot about Space Quest!!!!! Space Quest 1 was a master piece! Space Quest 2 was chillingly hard.
