I loved KQ6 but the game is one of the hardest games I have ever played. I would put 6 in my top 15 but not my top 10.

I'm kind of surprised from the results... Some of personal favorites are missing, such as Discworld & Discworld II and the Ripper...

So what's wrong with liking MI4 more than MI2? I know I did.

Here's my top 10:

1. Grim Fandango
2. Sanitarium
3. Curse of Monkey Island
4. Dark Side of the Moon
5. Lighthouse
6. Dark Earth
7. Under a Killing Moon
8. Redjack
9. Colonel's Bequest
10.The Space Bar

A couple of these I haven't played in a really long time. I'll have to play them again to see if they've held up.

There's nothing wrong with liking MI 4 better than MI2 per se but admitting that is like saying that Star Wars episode 1 was way better than Episode 5 because Jar Jar binks is the best character in the star Wars universe. It's just something you don't do if you are sane. Especially so on this forum.

The strange thing is that according to his list, he liked MI1 better than MI3 and MI4, whereeas in your case, since you put MI3 in third position, it's not surprising.
Oh, and what gilly said.

Well, from the looks of your list you prefer newer games to the oldies. Alot of times if one is used to talkie versions of games and then goes back to play an older game they dont appreciate them. I for one played it when it came out and I liked it when it came out.

Well I do have Discworld Noir on my list, as it rocks. But it's the only Disc game I've been able to get running on my PC at this point.

Its all about Wally. Wally is one of my favorite adventure characters. He was hillarious in MI3.

Largo is pretty funny too.

Well, let me think... The Secret of Monkey Island ranks high in your list of favorite games + LeChuck's revenge is one of the ten best games of all times + it's feels like MI1, only prettier and longer, and more coherent (except for the end) + you'll get hanged publicly if you don't play it
So I'd say YES, YOU SHOULD!

Dune was sweet, but full of flaws, as every other Cryo games... the originality of Dune was that it had many qualities to make up for these flaws.

GOSH !! :eek:
Your head is full of flaws !
At the time (I mean The Great Ancient Time), Dune was a revolution. You can't forget it. And Cryo was at the top of the pops in regards to originality and artistic coherence that are now so forgotten but so important for the adventurer immersion. Sigggh,but I must admit you're right, their games often were frustating. You're right when you say it was sweet...



...and please, full-of-flaws-head,please, don't make up...


VOTE KERRY OR SHOT YOURSELF !
