Hi guys!

I selected 6 adventure games that potentially could flourish in May. Let me know what you like and certainly let us know which promising adventure games I missed.

i cant believe that members who were lurkers one day (such as me) determined to stay lurkers.

nuthing here worth commenting about. the guys who made the video and collected the upcoming releases in it, does not deserve an interaction (the video) or recognition. .. you quit playing adventure games so all those upcoming releases this month don’t matter…

well, as much as never liked kuru seriousness. but i will quote him “Is it already time for this thread to go back into year-long hibernation.”, Kurufinwe. but i removed the question mark, bc it as rather a statement than an inquiry.

PAH!

I love the production values of Gamewalker’s videos but in general, the selections don’t interest me much.  On top of which, I just finished Syberia, which will give you some idea of how big my backlog is, and my opinions aren’t very interesting anyway. Tongue

FWIW Unforseen Incidents is also the one that interests me most, even if the graphics don’t quite grab me.  I didn’t watch most of that trailer as I prefer to know as little as possible about the ones I actually want to play.

you have to play EARTHWORMS to know that the quality of graphics at Adventures was/is a trick which we are all had fallen to, in other way graphics doesn’t matter, we play text-parser games ‘adventures’ for god sake, aren’t we?

It’s not the graphical quality (I love AGS games and text-parsers), it’s just the style, and there’s certainly enough going on in that game to make me want to play it.

I have very fond memories of LOTR and Quest for the Golden Eggcup text adventures back on the C64, though I admit even though Thaumistry and Open Sorcery are both in my library, I’ve barely touched them.  I’m sure there are others in there too.

One thing I do find difficult is a lack of voice acting, but even then The Last Door is one of my favourite adventures of recent times.

Just 40 for now, but no doubt I’ll be 43 quicker than I can say ‘pensioner’.  It was actually my friends who had the C64s.  I had the Spectrum 128k (+3!) Cool  I don’t remember if I played any adventure games on that.

Of course, then we all went over to Nintendo and the like and adventure games disappeared from my life until I was maybe 15 (what would we have been playing in 1993?).

Great year to begin my graphic adventure journey. Grin But now you have reminded me that LSL1 was actually my first graphic adventure; quite the experience for a young teenager.
