Wow! You're amazing kate me! And thanks for reminding me about one of the best quotes ever:

"It sticks you see, because of the damp. Landlord said he'll fix it before the winter sets in.....he's been saying that for three years."

So hilarious, and yet so true in these housing communities

Oh, I loved 221b Baker Street, especially in the newer games, where you can hear Watson's comments about the Dancing Men, and the famous painting above the mantle.

yeap, i also like that Frogwares sort of mimicked Granada TV series, not only with Jeremy Brett-esque appereance (although i think in earlier installments it was more of a "Basil Rathbone" Sherlock) but with room decor also and a typical gaze through window.

But i gotta admit i also liked level of details in Serrated Scalpel and Rose Tattoo as well:

Oh man, I love the Jeremy Brett version...<3

I've always wanted to live/visit homes in adventures, like Harbor Cottage in "Lost Crown". <3

It's cool Rolandesch! I didn't realise you couldn't PM as well.

Rolandesch's pics:

Puzzle Agent 2



Broken Sword 2





Yeah kateme, those images are fantastic - there really detailed! Oh yeah, and as I know you love Broken Sword too, you really should check its Facebook page out, if you haven't. Basically they have been holding competitions where you have to answer a question about the BS series to be entered into them. So far they have been "Your fav character" and "Fav moment", and yeah, I'm sure it's all market research for a new BS game! lol Also, it's really interesting to read what everyone has been saying to Revolution. I just wish I knew about it whilst the competitions were still open!

Link!

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Broken...32345226782199

and Rev's homepage has feedback on the competitions...

Thanks a lot Dan, it's a lot better to see the actual pics and not just links
Just a quick comment on my choices (altough I will add more when I'm sure they will go through)
Korka's room in PA2 gave me a kind of cozy/ikea/puzzle feel to it and I could spend hours there and would like it even more if you could see the snow outside and a fire wouldn't hurt
And as for the General's crib, well he has a lava lamp! You could put an elephant in that room and the lamp would still be the first thing you notice.

Ha ha yeah. His lava lamp. One of the many unsexy (for him at least lol) possessions that boosts his narcissistic, pseudo womanising ego.

Thanks MoonBird and Dan_Dan_91_07!

Anyways, these flats comes to mind also:

Carla's and Lucas's flats from Farenheit are a little empty, but very much space available
I really like in Lucas flat that giant glass window that leads to the balcony...but coudn't find a screen...

The modern flat from Belief and Betrail

And if you're into a cozy, lots of books and history , then Sophie's uncle home from Chronicles of mystery fits the bill...

Manny's office in Grim Fandango -- Rubacava, year two. Cosiest office ever. I'd LIVE there.

I don't know, fantasy, Edmunds(was that his name?) ghost hanging himself every night would be enough for me to seek new board quite quickly!

Hang on, didn't Nigel free all the ghosts?
After the ghost-hunting, I'd totally spend a night in Harbour Cottage. Before.. ehh not so much.

I always thought that the Marseilles hut in Broken Sword 2 looked strangely cosy


With a laptop and an internet connection you could have a nice time in there.
