I'm disappointed in myself that there are 3 games in the top 25 that I haven't played.

Every time I try to play Riven I stop playing after about 15 minutes. There is something about that game that just instantly annoys me. I loved Myst and quite a few clones though, so it isn't a matter of not liking that sub-genre. The environment is just completely unappealing to me and the navigation tedious. I'll have to force myself one day as I know if I could just get past my initial reaction, there is probably a great game there.

The other two are Zork: Grand Inquisitor, which I have no idea why I haven't played, and QFG 4. Every time I try to buy the latter on ebay, some douchebag snipes it away from me. I wish Gog.com would get it...
