Well, I guess I'm ready to take the plunge, and join the kids in their games.:

BUT: I fancy an adventure type game, one where I have to make decisions, and not a "how fast can you press that button/manipulate those buttons?" game.

Something along the lines of the old books you could get with rooms you went into, then had to decide whether to go out of another door, pick up something, go forwards etc etc, but with graphics.
Oh, and I have "access" to X-box, PS2, and a PC:

Anybody know any?
Thanks,

Try real time strategy games like cossacks, C&C, Age of empires.
Or roleplay like neverwinter nights.

 

My wife is currently addicted to Zoo Tycoon.

All the sim type games are highly addictive once you get into them, but you do find yourself looking at real life completely differently, like you are a city planner.:-D

 

Ive just bought Tetrus world for me,although my sons Ratchet and Clank is mighty addictive (and bloody great tbh)

 

Try something like Broken Sword.

Have a search on the web for 'point and click adventures' and it should throw up a list of stuff that fits your bill

 

Jak and Daxter!!

 

if on xbox wait for sudeki, looks like its gonna be pretty good, its kinda final fantasy-esque
