    I hear Mass Effect belongs on this list. Haven't played it yet so can't confirm, but I have seen absolutely universal acclaim for it.

    I feel like I should also mention Hotel Dusk, even though you probably don't have a DS.

    Also, sagnesgysdfsdf doesn't know what he's talking about. xP

    That's basically a book. It's good though.

    Barbies Playhouse has the best plot and story of any game I've ever played. Do you believe me?

Preferrably PC games, if you can, so I can play them myself.
    Bob, if you liked Dreamfall, you'll love the Longest Journey (Dreamfall is it's sequel). TLJ had an even better plot, and the adventure gameplay was the best I'd ever played, because it was designed to be the perfect vehicle FOR the plot. In Dreamfall, that was really lacking.

    I'm still getting the episodic Dreamfall Chapters though, which will resolve Dreamfall's loose ends.

    In fact, there are very few games that pull off gameplay that facilitates the story, though many strive to. Here are a few more that succeed.

    # Loom (1990)
    # The Secret of Monkey Island (1990)
    # Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge (1991)
    # Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (1992)
    # Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle (1993)
    # Sam & Max Hit the Road (1993)
    # Beneath a Steel Sky (1994)
    # Full Throttle (1995)
    # The Dig (1995)
    # Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars (1996)
    # Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror (1997)
    # The Curse of Monkey Island (1997)
    # Grim Fandango (1998)
    # Escape from Monkey Island (2000)
    # Psychonauts (2005)
    # Fahrenheit (aka Indigo Prophecy) (2005)
    # Sam and Max Season 1 (2006)
    # Sam and Max Season 2 (Present)

    I actually have the Gone Jackals' Bone to Pick, which has all their songs from Full Throttle! That's how much of an Lucasarts adventure fan I am.

    Another Code, then.
    (I thought Final Fantasy games were obviously included in the list, at least from IV on.)

    Really BoB? You didn't seem like the kind of person who would be knowledgable about FF.

    I mean, your a total newb.
