REVIEW: Dark Fall 2: Lights Out
(Review copyright 2004, Andrew Plotkin <erkyrath@eblong.com>)
Graphics: good
Atmosphere: really excellent

I just played GK3. I didn't think it was a good game, but I did like the

I have the excellent grim fandango but have problems with sound in parts of
the game where I have to turn it off to stop the game crashing. I tried the

cursor and I'm not entirely sure I have sound either.  Is there an easy fix
or a complicated rig-a-ma-roll to get it to work?
Thanks for any input!

One makes your a.s hurt the morning after and the other leaves your
walls splattered with feces

Is there a specific site to find adventure game patches new and classics? Also
a site for downloading old SB16 drivers to play older adventure games on an old
computer just setup for Dos?
Thanks

Just saw this Adrenaline Vault story about Eidos' fiscal year results:

I know as well as the next gamer the power of a brand name. Milk it for all
it's worth is part of the entertainment industry, and to be honest, I ...

Anybody playing this one?

Revisiting one of my college years pasttimes, I've replaying the 550-point
version by Wolfgang Strobl (version 2.10, 8/14/1992). When you save game, you
are required to wait 30 minutes before restore and continuing play. The message
when you invoke save implies that someone with ...

anyone noticed cool unexpected "game over" endings for games? some
games have interesting losing scenes. one i remember is ecstatica,
which has monsters talking in a bar while you hang upside down from a
ceiling, or alone in the dark which has some monster dragging you
