Anyone?

Been offered a bunch of budget titles by Focus (those guys that do budget rereleases of old PC games, and budget adventures games)

Ones on offer are:
Vampire Saga Pandora's Box
Barrow Hill Curse of the Ancient Circle
Drawn The Painted Tower
Farm Frenzy 3
Lost in the City
Magic Encyclopedia Moon Light
Mystery Case Files Return to Ravenhearst
Plants vs Zombies

Of these, Plants vs Zombies is excellent, the rest I have no idea. You can see details here: http://focusmm.co.uk/shop/home.php

Since TsuMuch has cursedly bagged the Plants vs Zombies, I'll choose ANY single one of the last four as...

A: I hate any vampire thing that isn't either Bram Stoker's Dracula, an original folk tale from centuries back, Buffy or Joe Aherne's fabbo Ultraviolet...

And -

B: Anything that sounds tedious unoriginal high fantasy, which 'Barrow Hill Curse of the Ancient Circle' frankly sounds.

Although of course if you fancy a rant filled laugh, send me one of the first two, but don't expect me not to be pre-biased.

All this is for after I've reviewed Tropico 3, natch. Here's hoping the game arrives tomorrow...

I'm up for having a go at any leftovers, as I've got a bit of free time right now and wouldn't mind having a crack at a few of these. And at least one or two of them sound like shite low-rent adventure games, which can always use a good kicking.

See Let The Right One In, then add it to your list. Also, The Lost Boys has an oiled up body-building saxophone player with a ponytail in it. It needs to be on your list too.

Right, anyone who wants to review any of these, pm me with a list of which ones you want, and your address.
