Classic PC Game Videos

Under a Killing Moon was awesome. 7th Guest was ok.

X-wing, Betrayal at Krondor and Wing Commander II were like crack.

Played 7th Guest. Never played Under a Killing Moon but did play one of its sequels (Pandora Directive). Finished neither.

There was a 7th Guest sequel called "The 11th Hour" and apparently will be another called "The 13th Doll".

"Shivers" was similar. Had both 1 and 2. Again, played both and finished neither.

Here's another one I'd like to get. It's called Nocturne.

How classic are we shooting for? Early to mid 90's?

I was going back a ways for most of them. I think Ripper was the latest of the ones I posted (96). I have it now but can't get it to play because my PC is 64 bit and it's 32.

More recent adventure games...

The game that started it for me, Police Quest 4: Open Season.

Sierra Online ruled the adventure genre back in the day. Hated it when they folded. Their football game (Football Pro 98) was more fun to me than Madden. Buddies and I used to get together and play that one all the time.

Also played Leisure Suit Larry: Love for Sail with the ex-wife (not sure if that qualifies as an "adventure" game).

    • We've seen him in 18 games now. He has not magically learned to be better in 5 games on the bench. As a reminder, here's his stat line for the last nine full games he's started: 148/264 (56.1%), 1439 yards (160 yards per game), 2 touchdowns, 5 interceptions, 32 sacks This is over NINE games. We lost these games by an average score of 10-24. In his career, Bryce Young has 11 touchdown passes. 5 of those came from two games (Detroit and Green Bay). Two of those Detroit ones were in garbage time. The problem with Bryce Young is not that his confidence is shaken or that he just needs time to learn. The problem is he is physically not capable of playing professional football in this league. Everyone on the team knows it.
    • If we somehow magically learn to draft well [I know, don’t laugh], it will take at least 3 more drafts to produce a roster that can go 9-7 or 10-6 consistently.  Doing it in 2 would mean that we have miraculously ‘caught lightning in a bottle’, landing the future Luke, Cam, Smitty, Peppers in back to back drafts.  Those are some long odds.  
    • So, Bryce solves the problem of: Hubbard running for -2 to 1 yard on 2nd down and Miles Sanders getting lost on a 3rd & long screen play? Johnson dropping a short 1st down pass and refs allowing PI? Johnson giving up on his route against physical DBs and OL going down field on a pass play? Nijman giving up a sack in 2 seconds on 3rd and 4? Hubbard & M.Sanders failing on 2nd & short, 3rd & short, and 4th and short back to back to back? Hubbard with runs of -2 yards and 0 yards to set up 3rd & 12? Ekwonu on skates getting bull rushed into the QB on 3rd & 4 in 2 seconds? Those were how the 7 drives ended before Dalton led a TD drive anchored by a 30 yard pass with pressure in his face again. You think Bryce solves any of that? Then there's the issue of the RBs and TEs consistently struggling to win in the flats. That's 90% of Bryce's game. Will Bryce solve the defense giving up 30 points by half time? The Panthers offense only had 2 drives before Young came in the game late 4Q. Is no one else noticing the Panthers only get 1 complete drive in 3Q of games after trailing by 2 to 3 scores? The defense can't get off the field and Evero's high school blitzes can be seen pre-snap by anyone watching. Is Bryce going to fix that? QB is not the issue for this team. Dalton, Johnson, Thielen and Coker are the strength of the team followed by a hot (run) and cold (pass) OL. Adding an inconsistent QB in Bryce to inconsistent RBs, inconsistent TEs, and an inconsistent OL is going to do what? Does anyone trust Bryce to read the defense from the pocket after the snap? His receivers and Canales have made it known they don't. What Bryce had success on in HS and college doesn't work in this league. Brian Robinson Jr, Jahmyr Gibbs and Jameson Williams aren't here to bail Bryce out with the huge windows coupled with slower and smaller defenders in college. They're winning with Detroit and Washington making other 1st round QBs look good. Alabama players from the 2022 and 2023 teams are winning with their teams. The media wanted you to believe Bryce, the tiny unicorn Heisman QB, made that Alabama team better when he was the one being carried with his limited game. The media doesn't want to be wrong on Bryce.
