Well, it seems that Lucasarts is getting a clear victory. In my opinion their games where always a lot more balanced than those of Sierra, where you could die hundreds of times or skip an important object in some part of the game having to restore an old savegame in order to finish it. Not very funny indeed.

I have far more and better memories with Sierra than with Lucasarts.

King's Quest was one of my first adventure games played (my first was Pawn) back in the 86 or so. Plus later or with games like Half Life and many more.
Mind you, I also like Lucasarts a lot, just Sierra a bit more.

Sierra doesn't have a perfect track record, so I went with Lucas. Along with the gems, Sierra has released some pretty abysmal games.
Not only that, but they never truly did reinvent the wheel as Lucas did.

Although Sierra's adventures are legendary, I voted for LucasArts' advetures. IMO, they are just a bit more legendary.

Yeah both companies have got good adventure titles but indeed I feel that the Lucasarts ones are just more legendary and memorable.

I voted LucasArts. Having played games from both, LucasArts have much more legendary and funnier games, plus I've never had to load or restart on LucasArts games :P
