@monkeyislandclub I totally feel you on that. I'm old school like you... Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge was my favorite. Still, Tales of Monkey Island is pretty awesome in my opinion--ESPECIALLY the storyline. Yes, I know it was a TellTale Games release, but still... I'm hoping they do another season of it. Without spoiling it for anyone who hasn't played it, the thing you have to do right near the end (if you know what I'm talking about) is...well... touching. And so true. ;)

The Millennium bug DID happen, but only in the games business where games developers and publishers starting losing their imagination and barely have any left, here, 10 years later!

It was at "Assembly", 2004, a large annual gaming and demo conference in Helsinki, Finland. Lots of fun! Amazing to see thousands of gamers simultaneously playing on their computers, non-stop, for several days.

X-Wing! To this day X-Wing and Tie Fighter are still about as good as you can get for that genre of gaming.
