There is no question that the ultra-realistic graphics appealed to me. I just prefer a sharp picture. But oddly enough in video gaming, I find all of the graphics, SD, HD, uber-PC disappointing. They are just different levels of disappointing. The problem is where my serious gaming began. My first big game was Zork ( I still have a copy if anyone wants to try it). ...

 

Zork brings back memories...   Zork I - III are free:  http://www.infocom-if.org/downloads/downloads.html

For a 28 year old game with no graphics, it's still a good game.  The scarry thing is...  I remember games even older then that.  Boy, I am getting old.

I loved them all. Did you ever play Hitchhiker's Guide. The Babel fish puzzle in that was to me the most elegant puzzle ever in any game.
