It's... it's ...Marvelous!

Where is Guybrush Threepwood?

He has graced our CRT Monitors for 15 years, and no-one bats an eye-lid?

But on the list, I'd say gordon. NHS specs make a hero.

Mr. Threepwood, aka 'Fancypants' is the lead guy in Monkey Island, some of the best adventure games ever.

Also I think were 'Murray the invincible skull' got his name from.

Good topic!

Sam & Max Hit the Road is one of the finest games ever.

Filled with existential dread and toast.

Shinobi on the ZX Spectrum was a great game, random point #3425. This reminds me of a similar thread from last week. Emulators one in Conversational. Can never have too many of these threads though

Sam and Max. Oh yes.

Now all someone has to do is mention Day Of The Tentacle and we have the LucasArts greats all mentioned in one game...

God, I loved that game.

I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an "Escalator temporarily out of order" sign, only an "Escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience."

Does anyone remember Loom? It was by Lucasarts and you played a monk who had a musical stick. Man, that was great.

I was playing that the other day actually, never did figure out how to get by the whirlwind on the sea.....

Ohohoh, i remember this one.

Just use the twist spell, but enter it backwards, untwisting the whirlwind.

I swear it took my 8 year old brain weeks toi figure this one out!
