these awards make me want to play beautiful katamari... my dad bought that game for my sister but she never played it and I did and I just love it a nice break from *rev *rev aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh, F U marcus, wheres my wife?! I'm gonna shoot her in the face! dom, stop trying to add to the story I'm the main character
Sam and max is way overhyped. Yeah its funy but it gets very annoying after awhile. I couldnt even play more then 1 episode in the same sitting. I also forgot another al lowe tital torins passage and roberta willaims phantasmagoria series was the first game to use fmv(full motion video)
Wow this is an awesome article because I just recently "discovered" the adventure genre. I've played like 20 classic adventure games in the last couple of months and I gotta say....Lucasarts may look beaten in the 80's, but for anyone not familiar with the genres history, wait til the 90's! Also there's some great Adventure games still coming out that are not part of the Nancy Drew series.
has anyone who's played Gabriel Knight: beast within (2nd one) notice that the guy who played Gabriel (Dean Erickson I think) worked at cafe Nervosa on Frasier? it was one of the first season episodes. nearly shit when I saw him there. "thats me, gabriel knight."
@ muffchild - You know I noticed! He served them coffee and had his hair in a ponytail. That's pretty much the only other place I've seen that poor actor.
Dammit, now I've admitted to loving Gabriel Knight and to watching Frasier...
