Very nice!
Police Quest was one of the first graphical adventure games I played on a PC..
Police Quest 2 was really great, and I liked the first one as well, but I didn't like the last two very much.

"Get Keys" "Open compartment" "Get card" ..... "Open locker" "Get gun"

Ahhh, the memories...

The Space Quest, Kings Quest and Larry series are great as well, even today (at least their stories, but not the graphics.. )

I solved every game of every series (Police, Space, Leisure Suit Larry) and Kings Quest.

These were gaming classics. I agree with -HAL- that typing commands (as opposed to point and click) was the gas...

The only thing missing here are the great Quest for Glory (or Hero's Quest) games..

I especially liked Quest for Glory II: Trial by Fire

Oh I forgot about Quest for Glory. That was one series I never tried. But it was more an RPG than an adventure game no?
