[quote name='clok1966']I hate to join the "meh" crowd but have to.. I do agree when I played all these years ago, they where the "best" adventure games had to offer. but nowdays they are very dated and somewhat stale gameplay wise. If you hve never played them, yes i think the price is pretty good and I would say give it a look, but I doubt many will play any of them throuhg (who havent already). They come form a time when adventure games quiet often made no friggin sence at all. Open the fridge to cool the room so the penguin would come out from behind the stove (that you had zero clue was there) and climbe the shelves to turn in the lightbulb that would warm up the room so the mouse would come out of his hole and drag the key for the door seven hazzard screens away. I must say the Lucas games made more sence then most, but still had the completly random "guess" till you get it parts...
But with all that said, Loom and the Indy games did rock when they where new. (never played the dig)[/QUOTE]
well i bit. i tried playing the dig, got maybe halfway, but then couldnt figure out how to save. i checked a couple of FAQs but nothing. and i am not going to start from scratch.
the indiana jones games, well i never played, they remind me of the king's quest games, if you liked those, then yeah, worth picking up. these games are at least 15 years old, and the voice acting(for the indiana jones games) is solid.
that said, if i want to play old school i would probably play torment or baldur's gate, or just pick up the nes or snes. i played loom once back in the early 1990s, it has zero replay value. and btw, i love old school games, but loom and the dig just arent really worth the time(i think) the indiana jones games at least remind me of the movie character.
seeing as how these games are $1.25 each, i cant really say that they are over priced.
