    Yes.

    Insecticide Part 1 (action/adventure)
    Big Brain Wolf (which I hear is good - haven't played it yet)
    The LucasArts adventure pack
    Jack Keane
    Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition (though I'm sure you've played that, yes?)

    There's more, but I can't think of them right now.

    Just to elaborate, that pack contains Indianna Jones and the last crusade, Indianna Jones and the fate of atlantis, Dig, and Loom.

    Other Steam game packs include Kings Quest (all) and Space quest (all)
    They also sell Machinarium, and Time, gentlemen please!.

    I bought my copy yesterday. I haven't installed it yet though. It looks like it is still $2.00 still. Get your copies while you can!

    If there's anyone looking for a cheap, physical copy of Psychonauts - there's one here on eBay.

    Horah! *clicks*

    Now... does steam have any other adventure games worth the download? hmmmm

    Only the best adventure game ever (IMO)...The Longest Journey. That is a great game!

    And although not adventure you gotta play Beyond Good & Evil if you haven't...my favorite game of all time.

    Oh I already have the lucasarts stuff, except Fate of Atlantis which I also downloaded eeee.
    Done Monkey Island SE as well, so yeah...

    I think the sierra packs would kill me, hahaha. I tried to play KQ 5 a while ago and it was painful. I own 7 but it wont run on my pc, bah.

    I also own beyond good and evil (which oddly doesn't seem willing to run in xp... go figure... ) and longest journey. Oh god.. I have so many games I need to play hahah.

    Speaking of games, on an unrelated side note, anyone know how to get Indigo Prophesy to stop stalling when doing chapter transitions? It's not letting me progress now which is irritating, it just sticks on the loading screen indefinintely.

    Pale man was right about it being on the free list for a while When gametap was an app, I got psychonauts and was able to beat the whole thing while it was still free. Also the king's quest collection is missing 8 but that one doesn't really count now does it?

    One of my favourite games as well! I was seriously considering placing it in my top 3 favourite games in the recent survey.

    It was on offer for a couple of days, but it's ended now so it's gone back up to full price. That's what you get for being too slow!

    I got stuck in psychonauts.. i'm such a failure lol. I'm not quick enough to punch those stupid pop up things hahahaha.

    I finally finished it like an hour ago or so. That Meat Circus level is totally hard, you know, with the usual "being not able to use 3D mechanism (controls, special powers, the camera angle and all) fast enough and appropriately in a platformer" issue being your worst enemy.

    i have the physical copy somewhere. dumb 5 discs.
    i also suck at the simplest things. right after i did the tutorial, that guy gave me the button. then i quit for supper, and it dident work. but a month later the computer had that big crash so we had the hard drive wiped. but this was a year ago. i should try it again.

    Yeah, the way to reach the inventory bugged me either. I thought my game got glitched and all, so I reloaded the game bunch of times. Game never told me about having an inventory (the default keys of inventory and psychic powers are weird. I have a keyboard designed for another language's setting, so in default settings I wasn't able to reach the inventory).

    Yeah, you have to press like [ and ] to access the inventory. It's ridiculous. Still, you get used to it, and the graphics are better than the PS2 version.

    You must be pretty blind to have missed the sale, it was all over steam! But seriously, even for $10, it's a bargain. It's a really good game and you're missing out if you haven't played it.

    Monkfish.... That's just sad.

    Well, the buttons for [ and ] are for the characters Ğ and Ü for me. And only the Ü one worked.

    I know right? I have the reflexes of a 90 year old half blind geriatric!

    I bought this game through Xbox Live a week or so ago and it didn't work, so I was really pleased to see it on offer through Steam. I've wanted to play it for years now, so it's great to see that it's as awesome as I thought it would be.
