The Monkey Island games can be picked up on both XBLA and PSN. I think they may even be bundled.  The King's Quest games' graphics are quite dated, but the games themselves are solid and a good place to start.You can get the whole collection off Steam fairly cheap. All the games I listed that are on Kongregate are fairly short, free to play, and browser-based. The Last Door is an episodic horror game that Julian reviewed and it caught my attention, so I checked it out. Episode 2 becomes available to play for free on Friday. I have it marked on the calendar, lol. Theresia is a survival horror point-and-click that is very good, and works really well on the DS.  Avoid any of the games on my bad and ugly lists like the plague.

My debit card, which works for everything else.

Ah, it's on GoG. Which doesn't like the flavor of my credit card for some reason. May not get to experience this one then. Too bad, because I enjoyed someone's (Blake, maybe?) blog about it.

Ben, just ignore it. Like the whole "OH MY GOD! VIDEO GAMES ARE VIOLENT!" thing, it will die down sooner or later when "they" find another cause-of-the-day crusade to embark upon. And enjoy the Street Fighter nostalgia.

About that final boss and the RYNO and Zodiac: it feels glorious! And the races suck moose balls, as a former boyfriend used to say.

I need to go back to the first one on the HD collection, I'm only missing two skill points and that will get me my first platinum trophy.

Ooh! Cool! There will be a way I will play that!!! Looks like they more than exceeded their goal, too.

The Monkey Island games are really challenging, for all their goofy style. Some of the games I linked to on Kongregate are very short and much easier. Then again, they might not do it for you, either. I like that we all have different tastes, makes things more interesting.

Nope, never played that one. Only Star Trek games I've played were a text adventure back in the 80s and ST:TNG on the Genesis. And now you have some choices to check out if you're interested.

Sierra was awesome! I bought the entire King's Quest Collection off of Steam (or maybe in was GoG). Interplay also had some really good ones, I had their 10th Anniversary Collection.

The reason you didn't see it is because i haven't played it. If I find it cheap and on a disc, I'll probably pick it up, though
