I think adventure games are going to go through a fairly radical change.
This has already happened in other genres ( R-Type has made way for Quake
and X-Wing etc) and a similar sort of evolution is going to occur in the
adventure game market.  The power of new computers is such that there are so
many things that are possible now that weren't even a year ago.  There is
little doubt that adventure games do not enjoy the popularity that some
other genres have, but this often happens.  I gave the example of the
sideways shooter being replaced by the first person perspective shooter, and
a similarly radical change is almost bound to occur within adventure games.
Going from text to graphics was one such change, and the next step is
probably to get the same levels of flexibility and interactivity that you
got in text only games, but using graphics and sound instead of pure text.

The standard adventure games have become a little stagnant and long in the
tooth but this often happens with genres and isn't particularly worrying.

    I have heard that this gerne is DEAD? I have cross-renfence this to
other newsgroups and want to ask other game player of other gernes why they
think this gerne is dead. Read this and this is what Gamsplanet has to say.
I know some one you guys in other gernes do not like this type game. I just
want everybody opinon. Has there every been a gerne in computer gaming that
died. I don't mean a sub gerne like Text game? This has been a very touching
topic to me. There is ORG who states that the gerne is dead. I really would
like everyone to read this and tell me what they think about this. Qualtily
adventure titles are find. Black Dahila, Starship Titanic, Sanitarium and
Monkey Island are nice. I think 3D is the thing to bring this gerne back to
life. These 2D games keep doing the same over and over again. I am glad I am
getting The Last Express. I know the story is very Important. The Last
Express flop in stores sad to say. It only made have of it's money back. It
just seems Techology and Hype are good ways to get people to buy games. I
know Karmo Talts don't want 3D in Adventure games. I hate this why people
say we don't need 3D. Adventure gamer's need 3D. We are desperate for
quality titles that sell as many copies as Myst and Riven.
