Monkey Island is one of the ones I'll definitely be playing, thank you very much ;)

I second the sentiment of.. "HOLY CRAP!"

Nice score, is he insane?!

Nah, that's what he's like. He's the worst packrat you'll ever meet - he'll buy stuff or pick it up because it's cheap and/or interesting and horde it for ages after he's finished with it. He's particularly bad with computers, we had boxes and boxes full of spare parts, bits and pieces of stuff which didn't work, old games he'd finished, software, hardware...whatever, you name it. He used to salvage bits off the side of the road that people had dumped on the off-chance that they'd work - we scored a working Amiga 500 out of that (and a lot of complete crap) :) Then one day out of the blue, he'd suddenly decide he was changing all this and would get rid of the lot. I remember when he switched to Mac, it was a small cataclysm.

The worst one was when he decided he wasn't going to play Diablo II any more. He had a kickass magic-find character and about ten or fifteen mule characters full of the most amazing magic items...and he uninstalled, deleted them all. ALL. I had stopped playing by that point too, but...what if I wanted to pick it up again? I would have adopted his mules :erk: At the very least he could probably have sold some of the items over battle.net, it was right in the middle of the furore over people paying real cash for ingame things :rolleyes:

This list needs more Shining Force and Broken Sword.

I don't know either of those, what are they? The names ring a bell, but I've been out of the gaming loop for a while and if they're relatively recent I won't know them.

Regardless, I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth ;)

Nice score! As long as it came with Speedball2, Dungeon Master and Stunt Car Racer :)

Thats divorce/maim material right there!

That aside, its very cool that you actually have an interest in a lot of these things!
 
My brothers like that, but he never gives it up. I own just about all the games on your list, but he has all the boxes and shit at his place. He loves displaying them for some reason, even though they have long since been played to death! :lol:

Shining Force II was an old Mega Drive game that was sort of like a predecessor of Final Fantasy style RPGs (although I think FF is older, but Shining Force resembles modern FF more than old FF does).

Broken Sword is an AWESOME point-and-click adventure/strategy game... it has a lot of similarities in content to the book The Da Vinci Code (the Knights Templar, etc). Broken Sword 2 deals more with Mayan history and ritual. It's the most amazing game I've ever played... incredibly addictive, and damn hard as well. I found it online at sold-out.co.uk for like 10 bucks Australian, so it's more than worth it to check it out.
 
Broken Sword rules :worship: Full Throttle, Day Of The Tentacle and Sam And Max are better though :worship:
 
You can actually learn something from books. You can learn things from some games, but people don't tend to play those; they're in schools.
