Hoewel ik niet zo heel erg grote fan ben van Apple producten (lees ik ben te pauper om het te kopen) moet ik wel erkennen dat deze de computers naar de grote hersenloze massa heeft gebracht. Dus nu spelen hele volksstammen Angry Birds en andere mainstream games op hun IOS device. Maar de website Topless Robot heeft nu deze lijst gemaakt met zeven oude games die het daar perfect op zouden doen. Mijn persoonlijke favoriet is dan ook:


2) Maniac Mansion

If my apartment full or Star Wars figures and credit card bill full of debt have taught me one thing, it's this: George Lucas loves money. So why aren't the classic Lucasarts games available for the iPhone yet? Sam and Max Hit the Road. Zak McCracken and the Alien Mindbenders. Full Throttle. Day of the Tentacle. The Secret of Monkey Island. Etc. These were all seminal experiences in the life of any self-respecting gamer. Obviously all of these would translate well, but my personal favorite remains Maniac Mansion. It was the first point-and-click adventure I ever laid my nerdy hands on, and it opened up my mind to not only the creative potential of videogames but the comedic. With the notable exception of laughing my ass off whenever my brother got stuck in a pit while playing E.T., I never thought that games could be funny. Be it the strange kinkiness of Nurse Edna or the sublime pleasure that came from nuking Weird Ed's hamster, Maniac Mansion was crammed with comedic possibilities. And it still is. Honestly at this point, I'd be willing to forgive George for the prequels if it meant I could have Razor with me everywhere I go.
