Wow. I was the second of two whole signatures.

How about the same thing for an "Aces of the Deep" revival?

I loved the PQ series, but didnt sign the petition. Why? Because 1 out of 10 adventure/point+click games done today are actually good. 2D graphics are pretty much dead and 3D just wont work with a series like PQ (or Broken Sword or Monkey Island or Indiana Jones or.. you get the point right?).

I'm happy to just forget it than wait for it for years, finally get it and realise it is but a shadow of the earlier games (*cough*Broken Sword 3->*cough*).

Out of curiosity - what would be some of those 1 out of 10?

I used to love adventure games back in the mid-90s when I first got a PC, but I've stayed away since 2D died a quiet death around that time.

Speaking only for my personal taste, Runaway series was something I liked very much, tho it was in 3D, but the graphics were more of a cartoony like, abit like team fortress 2 type. TBH, I think that's the only game that has been even close to the old adventure games in maaaany years.

What about Escape from Monkey Island? That made the 2D-3D transition without losing its appeal.

Maybe PQ shouldnt be done in 3D, but maybe touch up the 2D versions and add new things, like voice acting, easier driving sections, and a new case or two.

That's a question of personal taste. I myself, absolutely hate how it looks in 3D.

I just might have to take my words back on the 3D thingy, just for PQ. It was more of a serious kind of game, instead of humorous like most of the adventure games at the time. It might actually be nice with 3D graphics, but for a title like PQ, the modelling and animations should be suberb for them to pass my examination. :p Heck, it could even work as an FPS viewed adventure game, bit like X-files the game, but naturally greatly enchanced to bring it up to today's standards. :hmm:

Lol, I know. Great game.

The original Police Quest was the first game I ever bought for the first PC I ever bought. Would love to see another.

Worms - a game that never made the transition from 2d to 3d successfully...
