Default Top 20 Adventure Games Of All-Time!!1!

Thank you so much for bringing this feature back. I loved it the first time, and it's so much fun to read it again.
I can't say that I agree with everything, but I guess that's a given. It's still an interesting read.

I am personally OUTRAGED that neither Rome: Caeser's Will nor Timeline made the Top 20 list! Your refusal to include these treasures once again exhibits the fact that Marek is George Lucas's personal sex slave (I have pics of Marek wearing Leia's gold bikini) and that Evan actually has shit for brains. (Of course, being a CPA, he can deduct his own crap as a business expense.)


A happy April Fool's Day to all involved!

I really think SImon 3D should've been higher on the list. Stinger didn't even MENTION the amazing graphics.

I really don't get why people hate simon 3d so much...
If you look past the awful graphics and the weird controls it's just as good as the previous too.

I think "sexual attraction" of Lara kept it out.

Hey! I happen to love that game. Even if it was a bit repetitive.

I feel that Pepper's Adventures in Time should've been on this list too.

Orion Burger was pretty much constructed around a timed puzzle.

Considering Nordic Guy's use of "!!1!" in the thread title as the article does and the fact that the april fool's joke is really obvious, I doubt he fell for it bigjko. Unless you were joking as well.

Maybe they couldn't think of enough jokes about her "big guns"?

-This game deserves to be nº1, its so tit-alizing, it knockered me of my socks... I don't give a hoot-er about what the critics say, this game rAcks!
That's all I CANS say about it, ta-tas for now...

See? I can't think of anything else to say...

BTW is true that the US have 1.000 different words for breasts?

King's Quest 8 wasn't so bad... it just had very little to do with the series.
