It's not the Oscars. It's the 2005 AGS Awards!

At last. Everybody has been holding his breath since the 2004 AGS Awards, and now a huge army of undead and quite scary adventurers are ready to feast upon the newer award-winning adventure games. Mind you, all of these games, the AGS 2005 award-wining games, are free and created with the AGS games creation software. This list was originally posted at the AGS forums, and since I don't particularly like verbatim quoting other sites, I've added links to the downloads of the games mentioned, (quite a few) links to their respective reviews and (were applicable) links to their creators' homepages. Without further ado then:

    Greetings Mr.Gnome, I've taken your kind invitation and probably gone over board. I hope the following post dosen't offend http://xboxmeagain.blogspot.com/2006/03/gnome-is-where-your-gaming-heart-is.html

    In addition I've added your face to my sidebar and included your link in my "friends of the elderly" sidebar category.

    If I've mis-represented your site in anyway please let me know and i'll fix it.

    Thank you both... And dear elderly gamer, you are quite touching. Don't know how to thank you... Really. Your kind words were too kind. Thanks again. I've added the link, but if you have any banner(ish) thingy, I'd be glad to add it too...

    Cheers mates
