Man, I used to love the old Sierra adventure games: King's Quest, Space Quest, Quest for Glory, Leisure Suit Larry :cool:

Too bad they haven't (yet) released QFG as a collection, or I'd go right out and buy that one. I might buy KQ and SQ though. And I know there are already collections out there...but they're like $150 a pop on Amazon.com and Sierra is releasing these at just under $20 each. :D

Anywho, here they are, with links to each one's page:

Anyone else a fan of the classic adventure games? My favorite of all time has to be Space Quest IV. Can't beat it.

Nobody cares about these classics, I suppose. :'(

I use to play King's Quest all the damn time when we had our old Tandy.

That and Maniac Mansion.

That's fucking awesome.

I loved every single one of those games. Definitely gonna buy at least one collection.

I'm still pissed that they're not releasing a Quest for Glory collection. QFG IV has to be my all-time favorite QFG. Just the atmosphere, the voice acting, the whole setup basically. At least I found myself the last collection (1996-ish) on eBay for relatively cheap. :D

Anyone else think that Davy the Gypsy from QFG4 looks a lot like Tim Curry?

And yes, I've played (and beaten) KQ1 and KQ2 VGA. I've actually ONLY played their versions, not the original Sierra EGA versions. :p

Have you played the KQ III remake, from Infamous Adventures?

I still can't believe that both AGDI and IA got Josh Mandel to reprise his role as King Graham in all 3 remakes.

LMAO, that game was released just a few weeks ago. Two years after the announcement said "very soon".

Still... adventure games rock, and we have one more addition to the adventure game remake family.

A buddy of mine had Police Quest. One of the coolest games I've ever played.
