What was your favorite LucasArts (or as it was known earlier, LucasFilms) game? Mine would have to be the original Monkey Island - so many memories from playing that great game on my precious Amiga 500.

(Apologies to admins and mods if this has been posted before)

Monkey Island 1, 2 & 3
Indy and the fate of Atlantis
Day Of The Tentacle
Sam And Max
Full Throttle

I miss this genre of adventures, but at least there's some still being made with AGS

Moneky Island 1,2 and Sam and Max
I love the humour!!! LOL

There is a new adventure game out called "Fahrenheit" for PC.
It looks really good actually and is suposed to be very original.

While their adventure games were great, Lucasfilm also made the only flight sim that has provided any entertainment value to me: Their Finest Hour - Battle of Britain.

Such an excellent game. Played it on my older brothers computer back in the rattle-and-pacifier days, and a few years back I bought it from a fellow HOTU member for a six pack of beer just to relive that sensation of smoking down Spitfires. The charm was still there.

Since Maniac Mansion was the one that started it all for me when it came out on the C64, the choice is rather clear. :angel:

Of course most of the later games were even funnier, deeper, had better graphics and sound etc. but only MM will forever have this special place in my heart (shortly followed by Zak, of course... ah yeah, the memories of a wasted youth... LOL ).

But I gotta admit that I never before and never again laughed as hard or as much during any game then I did when playing "Sam & Max"...

Full Throttle, followed by Sam and Max, and then all the Monkey Island games and Grim Fandango. The rest are good, but I think those are the best.

I would have to say-All the Lucasarts adventure games, since i dont have favourite.

But since i have to choose one, i choose: Zak McKraken, because it was my first Lucasart adventure game that i played.
