It took less than a day to play both, but I think I have played them
about 10 times each, and still many more times to come, I'm sure.
As they are ooh-ing and ah-ing over a 5th game, I think they should
remake the first two with fab graphics and voices. I played 1 with the
sound off as it didn't make a difference (the title music didn't play
for some reason. This is bad as it's one of the best things about the
game)!
What do you think (apart from me being barmy)?
I have downloaded ScummVM v.7 so I am digging out some old games. What
should I play next?

Loom!!!
But I seem to be the only person around who likes that.

Otherwise go play DoTT.

As to redoing the first MI's. I dunno, I fear it would destroy the
nostalgia, which is part of the fun.

You should replay MI1, this time the version with cd-audio.

Man, I think I was drunk when I wrote those recommendations. No Loom, no
Dig. What the hell?

Hmm, if I had the CD audio version, I would play it.
I ended up playing Simon 1 and 2, started playing Sam and Max and
realised I was sick of it now (there are just too many questions you
have to ask), maybe in 2 or 3 years time.
I am now in the middle of Full Throttle.
Thanks for your help!
