I collect only vintage adventure games. Got about 70 of them, but every single one is an original big box release (no Kixx, white label etc.)

I can still remember the first game I ever got (my dad bought it for me on my birthday) was Maniac Mansion :)

Mine was Loom and Monkey Island wrapped and sold together, given to me and my brothers at Christmas. At first I had called it Monkey Is-land.

I still feel Monkey Island is the best game I've ever played, or at least the most memorable.

Makes three.
Although for me MI (1&2 only) definitely shares the first place with DOTT.

First place is definitely shared by MI1, MI2, The Last Crusade, Fate of Atlantis and Loom :D

(if we're talking pre-1995, otherwise first place goes to Grim Fandango.)
