My god Lucas Arts was the shit back then.  I still haven't played them all just Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion.  I must try Sam & Max.

Same here, actually. Same two point and clicks from them, too. I've always thought about getting into Sam and Max, but honestly these kinds of games are not my favorite, unless there is some nostalgia involved. So Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island, and Kings Quest were fun, but nothing I've played recently, especially recent games, ever clicked with me.

heck no. They were all great (until 3D spoiled the fun), but Curse had a charm that has never and will never be equaled.

Curse was part 3, wasn't it... I think you mean Secret, maybe?

Anyhoo, I think MI2 was technically better, but the first Monkey Island will always be my favorite. Nostalgia probably plays a big role in that, though.
