What a relief, I thought this was going to be an obituary!

I think it could do with dates, and it has some weird choices too... The Sherlock Holmes game and Journey To The Centre of the Earth are two of the worst games I've ever played.

What a relief, I thought this was going to be an obituary!

Right?! I was all ready to get into a debate about how adventure games are alive and well, thank-you-very-much, or perhaps a philosophical discussion of the term "graphic adventure game," and its meaning in the modern age.

There were a few titles in there that made me go "Oh, yeah! That was a thing!".

And also some pretty terrible games.

Cool little video. But I was shocked and outraged that Oceanspirit Dennis was the big finale. Surely the maker of that video must know that Dennis heralds a new golden age for adventuring!  8)

Or perhaps it IS an obituary and ocean spirit dennis marks the final nail in the coffin.

Adventure games? Those are stupid. Not enough 'splosions, and I can't figure out where to go or what to do. Good thing AGS can be used exclusively for HD First-Person Shooters now, so we can stay current.
