For those who like the good old point-n-click adventures from Lucasarts and others, there are quite a few more recent games in that genre on gog.com now.

Point and click adventures are still HUGE in the casual game market. Though they're generally of significantly less gameplay quality than the classics.

I spent a good chunk of the past weekend playing this. I was afraid the 12 or so years that went by since it originally came out, would make the game feel outdated even with the enhanced edition updates.
It's still great. There is a ton of new content added, the graphics looks ... well, very similar. The ability to zoom in and out is the biggest upgrade here. Gameplay has been updated to that from BG2, with all the interface options, races classes etc.
I'm generally having significantly more fun that I thought I'd be having.
