Toby thought they convicted the wrong man.

Just like Charles Darwin!

My thoughts exactly.  Great story, I kind of fell in love with Zoe, it still kills me that Dreamfall Chapters doesn't look like it's ever going to happen.  But not a very good "game".

If you didn't dig the plant out with your knife on the very first screen it became unwinnable.  Eff that game.

That's the one!

Not abandonware.  The Ultima's up to Serpent Isle are on GOG.com.  I just finished VII Part One and it has been one of my favorite gaming experiences.  I can't even imagine how blown my mind would have been if I had played it in 1992.

Probably worth linking to Old Man Murray's "Who Killed Adventure Games":

Quest for Glory IV is great.  It combines eastern European folklore with Lovecraftian darkness, has John Rhys-Davies as narrator, a good sense of humor, and RPG elements.  It's my favorite non-Lucasarts adventure game.

Are you still running Windows 98 or something?

The most recent Zork, 1997's Grand Inquisitor, is also a great gateway, I think.  Funny, not too difficult, and part of a lineage of history's greatest adventure games, Return to Zork notwithstanding.  It's also available at GOG.com.

Limitless?  Yeah, I watched it too.

But I think sevenzarkseven is talking more in the last 2 years, with Dr. Hurt and the Black Glove.  Although Snyder is still knocking it out of the park.

Well, what does he know?

Is this why is hair was so bad on Parks & Rec at the beginning of the season?

Look at all of you.  Acting like you forgot about Taylor Hicks.  Soul Patrol!

Paula Abdul looks terrible.

All I can think of right now was the fairly depressing series of "wake" ads for Wendy's "Where's the Beef" lady in the late '80s.

5our Brothers.

Did Hannity die or something?

What a find!
