quest for glory series was also good

hamer,
I loved the Quest For Glory series.The fourth game Shadows of Darkness was my favorite. It was scary.

Well, since I mentioned it in its own thread, I will say I think Paradise is underrated. It's a shame the original version had so many bugs because I think it's actually a great game with an intriguing storyline.

And Space Quest, for your benefit, I will also mention Zak McKracken. Definitely an under appreciated game that was ahead of its time.

I really liked Paradise also and it wasn't buggy for me. i thought the story was great also and the ending was fitting.

Venus,

I used to love all the Lucasfilms/Arts games.
Zak, Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island, and Day of the Tentacle were some of my favorites.

One newer game that blew me away is Overclocked.

The game sort of proceeds backwards.

It is the coolest game among the more recent games I have found.

It kept my interest throughout, at every turn.

Unfortunately, not many newer games do that. I often get bored and bail out, but I figure I'll either get back to them or trade or sell them.

Space Quest, I was more of a Sierra fan in general, but I loved Lucas Arts as well. Zak is one of my favorite EGA games, and I love how expansive it is. Even though games have gotten more intricate story wise since then, I've never seen another game with such a huge span of locations.

Raj, I loved Overclocked as well. It felt like a page turning book that I couldn't put down. My only complaint is I wish it could have been longer.

Venus I am with you on Sierra. I loved Lucasfilms games but I think I purchased about every game Sierra ever made. The people were so nice at Sierra and they always went out of their way to help you. I think they may of had the best customer servive of any company I have ever dealt with. I also loved the Interaction magazine.

I agree with you on "Overclocked." I too find most of the new games rather boring. First little excuse, and i am out.
