Why are their "Best Adventure Games of 2010" so old?

Of the 5 games they list, only Hamlet is a new adventure from 2010

Another World is "originally released in 1991 (and re-released with better visuals in 2006)"

The Longest Journey was originally published in 1999 and has not been updated with better visuals

The most recent game in the Broken Sword Trilogy is from 2003

Avenue Flo isn't even an adventure game.

Why didn't they look at Lost Horizon or Gray Matter or Black Mirror 2 or Ghost Pirates or Tale of a Hero or Kaptain Brawe or one of the Sherlock Holmes games? What about the new King's Quest series? IMO they really messed up.

Jenny, just a guess, but it may be that these older games weren't available on sites like Jayisgames and BigFish until this past year and that's what they're going by.

Avenue Flo?

You are sure to find many excellent games represented within the Top 5 presented for each category. These games represent the very best of the games we covered in all of 2010, and we thank you kindly for participating with us by voting for your favorites. We can only hope that 2011 will bring as many great titles as we saw and played in 2010.



This text was also in the presentation of the Best of 2010 found in the link of the first post.

Maybe it can help to see what they did.

I wish they had made a separate "Freeware Adventure Games" category and chose Top10s instead of Top5s like in previous year.
