Telltale games have been doing the new Sam & Max games which have been pretty successful I think. So there must be a place for adventure games somewhere.

Some of the games you mentioned are pretty high on the Wish List over at GOG (Good Old Games).

I played Sam and Max hit the Road a long time ago and loved it.  As soon as I get some time I will check out the new one.  I heard it is episodic.  And yes Kevin, it was called Maniac Mansion.  Not sure why I thought it was Day of the Tentacle. Full Throttle was awsome!

If I could find my AC adapter I would be playing DOTT on my DS right now. :(

I used to love playing these point and click adventure games. The first one I got into was Full Throttle. I still want a sequel to that game. Also Monkey Island was also really good. I know Grim Famdingo got a lot of good press but I wish they would let me use the mouse instead of forcing me to use the keyboard.

I have the same problem. I got grim fandango like a year back and it's just insane to try to play it with the keyboard.

It is a shame that these types of games fell off of the map.  This type of game usually had a very good story.  It would be awesome if Sierra (not sure if they are even around anymore) came out with a new Kings Quest game.  With todays graphics and a fully fleshed out story, I could see these adventure type games coming back.  I have all but stopped PC gaming because of the repetition in genres.   Seems like the only  thing available to me is either a FPS or an RTS.  If it wasn't for WOW I probably would not game on my PC.  And that is a very sad thing for me because I started gaming not with a console but a PC.
