I tried playing the remade Kings Quest VGA and even that was too clunky for me.
Instead, I'd much rather have some really good modern adventure games.

Hmm, kurupt, hadn't even thought about any Sierra games on the VC. That could be very cool, especially if it could do away with those long load times.
Man, this thread is actually making me want to find my old Apple IIC and games; I had some great ones. And yes, I realize this is really dating me.

Later, we'll have Alan Wake. Here's the IGN Preview of that game. I'm not sure if it has a release date yet.

So I'm kinda happy. I got my PS2 working again. It was working, but poorly. I would constantly get "Disc Read Error"s. It was getting frustrated. Even new games I would have to reset and take the disc out and put it back in again. Most DVD movies wouldn't read or would skip or stop.
I pretty much gave up on the PS2 and wasn't interested in playing/renting/buying any new games.
Well I did a Google search and found a good fix from ArsTechnica. I was worried because it involved opening up the machine but I figured I had little to lose. Now my PS2 seems to be reading things fine. Maybe I'll finally pick up Okami.

Beaten 12 of 25 XBOX games, have 19 of the 25.
Beaten 11 of 25 GCN games, have 22 of the 25.
Beaten 0 of 25 GBA games, have 6 of the 25.....OUCH
Beaten 5 of 25 PC games, have 11 of the 25
Still a lot to get through of the best games on each system. Some games I have played but not beaten, and I counted some games like Sim City 2000 and the Sims that I played to death, but never really "beat".
