: : Hey, I'm new around here, but I figured this would be a good place to
start since the topic includes two of my favorite things. :) I totally
agree, I think it would be hilarious to have a Clerks adventure game. I've
always been a big fan of Lucasarts adventure games, well, adventure games
in general really. And on top of that my father made his own adventure
game, (Morpheus, of course it flopped...hard, but hey, it's still kinda
cool to be able to say you're dad made a commercially released computer
game) so I was sort of raised with them. It is true though, adventure games
do tend to fail, even when they do "well". Take Grim Fandango, it did great
as far as adventure games go both with how many copies were sold and with
the critics, but it was still a failure in comparison to, say, Tomb Raider.
Anyway, yeah, it would definitely be cool. I love the Clerks:TAS DVD, and I
would love to be able to play Dante or Randal. Or both. :)

: : Oh yeah. Hi everyone. I'm new.

: Off topic but : Monkey Island 4 is doing pretty well isn't?
: May be the last of the good Adventure games...
: Everyone should check it out.

I think it's doing fairly well, but again, fairly well for adventure games
is pretty awful in the grand scheme of gaming. Don't suppose that really
made much sense. I think you're right though, adventure games have sort of
died off, haven't they? MI4 was the last one worth playing. Take it from
someone who's seen it happen from the inside, it's a tough business. In all
honesty though, doing a Clerks fan game had occurred to me. I have all the
programs I'd need to put it together, but I hardly have the time between
school, work, and my Mallrats DVD. Besides, it would just be me doing a bad
copy of Kevin's writing style. Not really wort
