Who was the other toss up?
Was it SQ3?

PQ3 was awesome, because it felt very real to me. And I am always a sucker for those "pentagram" type movies. :lol:

I just wanted to make sure... SOME PEOPLE are misled as to it being the worse in the SQ series...! :lol:

King's Quest 3 all the way. One of the best Sierra games in general. Space Quest 3 was good but way too short and easy. I won that game in a day.

Pretty sure, we can call SQIII the winner here, considering its massive lead...

Fourth Poll Open. Considering SQ3's lead, it's clear who the winner is very early on.

Late again to the party, I see. :P

This one's a really tough choice since I've never really nailed a third favorite out of any Sierra series before. These are all great games, but by process of nit-pickiness

PQ3?: Nice story, but fighting some nameless drug dealers is like a step back from PQ2, so...
KQ3?: Outside the wizard puzzle, it's pretty much just a long hike, and the wizard puzzle isn't so much fun as it is stressful, so...
SQ3?: Best music of the bunch and a good strong change for the series, but it's still pretty short and aimless, so...

I'm voting LSL3!

On the whole, it's a fun game, has a nice variety of puzzles and side-quests, the best music of the series, lots of scenic locations, and you get to play as both genders. It also has one of my favorite game endings.
