That site has some games too.

 

yeah but the version of DOTT that i had was the "full-talkie" ( i think thats how they referred to it on the disc) version that had recorded speech for all of the dialogue. Ive been able to find DOTT for download, but none of them were the one that had the recorded dialogue, and the voice-over work was what made the dialogue that much funnier. Hell, i may just have to resort to ebay for DOTT ( and Sam & Max ). While im talking about Sam & Max, and i apologize for going off-topic here, has anyone tried any of the new episodic Sam & Max games on Gametap?? If so are they any good ( or worth playing at least)?

 

I was discussing a classic the other day with a friend of mine.

Simon the Sorcerer

This game is a masterpiece of comedy. I played it when I was around 8 or 9, and I had no idea [at the time] that the game contained such adult humor.

 

The new one (number 4) is pretty good, much better than the dire simon 3d they released

and on the subject of point and click games, i picked up monkey island bounty pack this morning off a carboot sale for a quid! and last week got the classic kingdom 'o magic

Simon 4? What?Where? I want!

Also, try Runaway: A road adventure and its sequel Runaway: Dreams of the Turtle or something with the word turtle in it. The first one is superior in my view (Story-wise etc) and darker =) I can't preach enough for these games!

 

my personal favourites are:

Jedi Knight
Unreal
Bleifuss
Quake
Star Wars Rebel Assault
Max Payne
Mafia

 

i got my copy of Runaway: A road adventure with a magazine.

best 2,95€ ever spent!

"I live agaaaaaain!"
Amazing game!

 

"Victims... Aren't we all?"

I remember countless quotes from Blood! They need to make Blood 3 ASAP!

 

Or just release it for XBLA/PSN.
The first game is the best in the series.

 

They need to get their fingers out of their arse and find the source and release the damn thing. Then every body who has the original game and expansion pack and all that jazz can play the game AGAIN without thinking about, if it is Vista, XP , and Linux for that matter you are playing the game on. And if they will not release the whole game source code, then let just release the engine part so the game can be ported properly.
