Really cool old games that nobody remembers.

i was never able to beat Maniac Mansion either. That game just keeps kicking my ass. i fully plan on beating it before i die. It is one of my favorite games, besides Earthbound and Chronotrigger.
Jackie Blue:
Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, and Maniac Mansion. Ah yes, the Holy Trinity of games that I find bizarre in their overrated-ness.
All were good games, but... Earthbound had a silly story and regular old gameplay, Chrono Trigger was great fun but not even nearly as good to me as FF4 or Secret of Mana, and Maniac Mansion is horribly clunky and dull compared to pretty much every other point and click adventure game from the same time period.
Back on topic:
Legend games were awesome in general, but this one was aces. It's easy to find it on abandonware sites and should run fine in XP.

sweet, I gotta look that up. And really, I was pretty young(I'm 20 now) back when Maniac mansion was new and me and my siblings didn't really have a whole lot of games, this was before I actually became a "gamer". I'll look up Eric the unready, but give me some other suggestions. I honestly didn't think anyone remembered Maniac Mansion at all and since most of my peers definitely do not I was just pleasantly surprised to know I'm not the only person whose ever played it. Now I'm going to download and beat it.
Jackie Blue:
If you like Maniac Mansion, dig up the Space Quest games, possibly Police and King's Quest (though I never cared for either of those).

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but I loved Elite on the Atari, and was delighted to find out there's an open source version, Oolite, with a community attached.
But I guess Elite was pretty popular at the time, so people probably do remember it.
