I loved point and click adventures as a kid, too, but I never got into the Sierra ones for some reason. The ones I was into were the LucasFilm Games titles. Especially Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders. That was my favorite. LucasFilm Games was also where I learned about and got into Sam & Max.
You know which police officers did not make my list either? The ones from NARC.
The N64 came out when I was in college and I just started reviewing games for The Dallas Morning News a few months before its release. So I played and reviewed a lot of games on it. While I ended up liking the PSOne more, the N64 had a lot of fun and memorable games. Some of my favorites off the top of my head include:
Super Mario 64
Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie
Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask
Mario Kart 64
Diddy Kong Racing
Kirby 64
Super Smash Bros.
Paper Mario
Tetrisphere

I never had a Genesis as a kid, and I don't remember plunking any quarters into the arcade version, so E-SWAT isn't really high on my memory. When I played it on one of those SEGA classic collections, it just seemed like a rip off of Robocop and Rolling Thunder combined.
I don't think I've heard of that one. Like I said in my blog, there aren't enough firefighting video games. If I can't come up with a better blog idea, I may do a favorite video game firefighter blog in a month or two.
Well unless she does some super cool stuff in the new game, my vote still goes to Gumshoe.
I wish there were more retro conventions near where I live. If there are, they don't advertise them very well.
World of Final Fantasy looks like Square made a FF game just for rme. For reference, my favorite FF games are 6, 4, and 9.
I don't HATE Ema Skye, but I'm not a big of her either. It's just that I liked Gumshoe so much more.
