The Wing Commander games and Privateer.
I love being a space pilot or free trader.
Sure Elite gave more freedom but in Privateer you at least felt you also had a short term goal; solve the Steltek mystery and stop the Steltek probe/stop the Church of Man from destroying Gemini Sector.
Another adventure series I really liked were the Journeyman games, of course they are like Myst but the atmosphere felt great and Arthur must be one of the best sidekicks out there..
Has Freespace 1/2 also been mentioned.
I agree on almost all of the Lucasarts adventures, I don't know how to start in which order I like them, but don't forget the Revolution adventure games as well.
Try out "Beneath a Steel Sky"
There is also Lost Vikings 1 and 2.

This thread reminds me how uninspired most nowadays games are...
You said it, in a FO3 topic on the News section I pretty much described how I hate the slobbering brainless gamer masses of today.
They have no opinion of their own and will suck the developers/publishers' cocks for the slightest graphic innovation.
Die you soulless masses die die die!
Killing these people would be a kindness, we free them from the mockery of undead state.
As for the rest of the people in the forum, damn you guys, you made me all nostalgic for better days in gaming history.
