Very interesting! I don't think I've seen Obsidian discussed anywhere in that kind of detail. Thanks for showing it to me!

You're welcome. If you have anything to add, don't be shy about posting. It's always nice to have some in depth discussion of games.

My choices are pretty limited seeing as all my adventuring takes place on a Mac but...


1.Full Throttle
2.Gabriel Knight 1
3.Monkey Island II
4.Sam & Max Hit the Road
5.The Dig
6.Day of the Tentacle
7.Quest for Glory II
8.Broken Sword
9.Indigo Prophecy(Obsessed with the beginning despite the rest of the game)
10.Monkey Island 1

I would have added Where in the USA is Carmen Sandiego for Nostalgia's sake but I'm pretty sure it doesn't count as and adventure game

EDIT: Grim Fandango would no doubt make the list but I can't play it until the ScummVM guys finish their GrimE emulator, and yes I did make one or two alterations to my list...

As a slightly more amateur gamer...

1/ Last Express (duh )
2/ Syberia
3/ Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars
4/ Broken Sword - Smoking Mirror
5/ Fahrenheit (the beginning!!!)
6/ The Longest Journey
7/ Myst

I think that is all I have played - I've got the Black Mirror, Amerzone, Barrow Hill, Darkfall and Scratches on order!

I found the choices really difficult to make but gave it a shot. My top 10:

1/ Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within
2/ Day of the Tentacle
3/ Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers
4/ Monkey Island 2
5/ Noctropolis
6/ Eco Quest
7/ Amazon
8/ Darkseed
9/ Space Quest 4
10/ King's Quest 5

I chose these games as they were what I played as a child from the age of five onwards. I just remember the warm and fuzzy feelings I got when I played them all those years ago.
