    Purely for the fellow geeks :wink:
    But following a very drunken converstaion about 'Monkey Island', anyone else get all warm and fuzzy about ceratain games of yesteryear? Some of my personal favourites have to be Monkey Island, Civilization, Space Quest/Police Quest, Wolfenstien 3D, Sim City, Xwing/Tie fighter, ...the list goes on....

    I remember laughing out loud at the first Monkey Island - the whole way through the game! Absolute legend! Many a tired day at school thanks to 'the adventures of Guybrush Threepwood' keeping me awake till the wee hours.
