Old school PC games

[shuui]

While talking to A-san last night, we discovered that we have something in common in the most unexpected place...
And it spinned off from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle talk too! XD

The conversation started from dressing up as Ninjas, to the Turtles, to arcade games, to me remembering this really old PC game I love a lot. Mentioning it gave way to more

YES MA'AM KILLED AT YOUTH BY SIERRA ADVENTURE GAMES MA'AM! Except Phantasmagoria was a bit late for me so I didn't play it [1995 a bit late hahaha XD]. The non-adventure KQ8 totally disgusted me, so no go on that one either. But Sierra's Laura Bow used to be a Christmas night staple, for some strange reason.

Lucasarts was a bit later for me, and though I enjoyed Maniac Mansion, mostly culminated in the phenomenal Monkey Island series. One of Lucasart's non-MI last games, Grim Fandango, is one of my absolute favourite games ever.

If Shuui loved Sierra and weird humour than Shuui perhaps should try Monkey Island, Grim Fandango and Sam and Max [which is really the leading series of the adventure genre now] - no more random deaths, mostly. Oh Sierra! The days where you fucked up my entire game and made me play it all over again because I missed out an item!

I forgot to add, that is, if Shuui has not already played them. ;) Since you mentioned Lucasarts up there. 8D

Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle for the LucasArts count
- and Grim Fandango where I got stuck and uh, didn't continue. D:

(I wonder if you guys have ever played Longest Journey...?)
