Forgotten adventures
Forgotten adventures right from mid 90's heydays of ag, if you get a chance to play any of them you'll found quite intriguing,while no real new titles around.
My offerings are:

Dark Seed looks cool, although I'd probably have to paly the 1st one.

The Dame was loaded is wonderful!
 A great game, unfortunately underrated!

My favourite on that list is, by far, Normality. A unique concept & story, full of social criticism, really intuitive interface, awesome graphics for its time, overall a great game.
I also liked The Dame Was Loaded and, if you are into horror games, Dark Seed 2 & Harvester are a must. Is nemesis a wizardry adventure really an adventure? i haven't played it but its screenshots look too rpg-ish. |

I looked up Harvester. It looks pretty cool. Is it an actual adventure, though, or a shooter/fighting game? It's pretty expensive, though, so it'll probably have to wait along with "Discworld" for me to win the lottery and buy it.

I've played In the 1st Degree, which was definitely a little over my head back when it was first released. I didn't really like it at the time, but that may have been 'cause I was so young. I did like The Dame Was Loaded, though. It had a Tex Murphy, noir-like vibe to it. Good times.

Why are the games that I want to play for the 1st time; HArvester, Discworld, Gabriel Knight, so expensive and out of my reach?!

Well see, I don't really trust ebay. That you have to bid on it, and the site doesn't support you if the sender doesn't send it...it just scares me. I buy my stuff on Amazon.
