Just want to share the game the brought me back to the PC gaming world:
Dreamfall The Longest Journey. I'm primarily a console gamer (loyal Sony fangirl since the original Playstation!!!), mainly because I don't like shooters or MMORPGs, which, in my opinion, make up 80% of the PC gaming market. Sooo, I play my consoles. However, while browsing the forums of one of my favorite games, (Beyond Good & Evil!!!  ), I read several remarkes that those who like BG&E will like Dreamfall. This summer, I decided to give it a try. (It was also an excuse to finally buy a good graphics card for my PC!!!!).I bought and installed the graphics card, and bought the Game of the Year Edition of Dreamfall. It came with the prequel, The Longest Journey. After playing both of those games, I have been fervently looking for more PC games to play (while waiting for the sequel, Dreamfall Chapters, to come out!). I'm planning on getting Sam & Max: Season 1 on PC (fond memories of Sam & Max: Hit the Road and the TV show are seeping through right now), and I'm seeking more point-and-click games, and/or third person adventure games like Dreamfall. Dreamfall was a beautifull game, and I can't wait to have more experiences like that on my PC!!!!

Will have to try it (since our taste in games is very similar, love the Kos-Mos avatar)

I'll have to check this one out! I agree with you - there's too many shooters and MMORPGs out there that have no original substance to stand on.

Oh, yes. Dreamfall is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played. I should point put that it is the second one in a trilogy. The first one came out a several years earlier an is named simply The Longest Journey, where April Ryan is the main character. The third installment is still in the making.
I should point out that there are several plot point which hangs together between them so playing both in order is preferable. Also the lovely talking crow makes has a bigger role than in the sequel. |

The Game of the Year Edition for PC came with the original The Longest Journey as well. I played that first, then Dreamfall. They are two different games, but both are great!
