Look-and-Click Adventure Games

Sierra is putting out a new Sam & Max game and a new Full Throttle game. They're 3D, but in the same genre.

Sam and Max: Hit the Road.

This game was awesome because when i played it when i was like 12 and i thought it was vulgar.

I'm talking about adventure games, Chimp. They don't count.

Myst was the most boring shit in the whole fucking world. Pretty, yes. But it was boring, filled with nonsensical puzzles, and had no point.

In an act of splendid retardation, Full Throttle 2 was recently cancelled. Also, they're by LucasArts.

I've never been able to get into 1st person adventures, where you can't see your own character and rarely meet any other characters. I'll take "use screwdriver on armadillo" over "reassemble slimy alien bulbs in the correct order" any day.

I heard it wasn't really cancelled, just that its back in the drawing board to make it more of an adventure/action game instead of an action/adventure game. Becasue alot of the hardcore LucasArts adventure gamers didn't like to way it was turning out.

Could be, but I think that's just a rumor spread by fans. All gaming sites used the word "cancelled" and I think even Lucasarts.com did. They've "stopped production" on the game because they don't want to disappoint the fans. Sounds weird to me, but I think that they'd make it more clear if the game was just going back to the drawing board.

Sam & Max looks pretty weird in 3D, kind of outdated silicon graphics... I think they would've done better to use cell-shading or just regular 2D animation for it.

I bet you never passed them.

I liked Riven a lot better than Myst. I don't know why, probably because it was a bigger area, or maybe just because I found a dead body in it.

The creators Cyan also made another game called the Manhole, it was meant for kids and there was no plot really, I enjoyed it when I was 7.

Damnit where is that game now.
