I was thinking of picking up Bladerunner of amazon, had the game once before but don't know what happened to it.

Very nice xlucidx!~!

I've played MOST of the ones you mentioned and they're all good. I'd call Goblins more of a puzzle series though.....

But Beavis and Butthead! How could I have forgotten that one. Classic! (Discworld too)

I think I still got BladeRunner somewhere...I need to check this out!
I need the new Broken Sword aswell. Did anything important happen in Broken Sword II that I need to know about if I get Broken Sword III?

EDIT: Plus the new fahrenheit is awesome! Try the demo - you'll love it!

Little Big Adventure2, I loved the game even though I never played the first one

I can play the game on windows XP but for some strange reason the vehicle doesn't seem to turn right or left

Go download Beneath a Steel Sky for free: http://www.scummvm.org/downloads.php

It's made by the people that made the Broken Sword series. Awesome game, it has voice acting too.

Don't forget Syberia 1 and 2. They were artistic masterpieces and played very well too...much like the adventures of old (mentioned above by Darkstar and xLucidx).

Most of the good ones have been posted, and I can't think of anything besides Buried In Time II and Lighthouse.

Let's see, No LucasArt game is free, because LucasArts is still alive and well.

To find them there's...
Amazon.com, ebay.com, ebgames.com, gamestop.com, etc.

I have Mafia and loved it, literally.

I made the mistake of selling some of my old adventure games, especially Grim Fandago and Full Throttle.

Wait.....

You "loved it, literally"?

You mean you had sex with the disc? Wow.
