Default Adventure/rpg suggestions

Yeah it's been asked before. I'm currently compiling a list of essential adventure games I still alas do not own. I have a lot of games, and i'm not exagerating here.. my collection is insanely massive.. but for some reason i'm missing some rather essential games like Bad Mojo and Siberia. This must be remedied!

Anyway, anyone have any suggestions for Adventure games or RPGS that everyone should play/own/worship?

Bearing in mind, I can't stand japanese style rpgs, I hated Final fantasy 7 with a burning burning passion. Turn based combat in RPgs makes me angry, cut scene combat even more so. So yeah...

So, games for the PC, DS or PS1 (I could never be bothered with the new generation and wanted to play silent hill ok!?)

Suggest away! ramble, rant etc!

I loved Zork: Grand Inquisitor when it came out. It's easily my favorite non-LucasArts adventure game. (You do have to be familiar with at least Zork I and Return to Zork to get most of the jokes & references).

I saw that it's available on GameTap now, which is cool. I'm going to try Zork I again, seeing as how I've never actually finished it...

The Neverhood, if you can find a copy. And since you own a PS1, the semi-sequels: Skullmonkeys and Boombots. The sequels aren't adventure games, but a Neverhood collection isn't complete without them.

Yeah. grand inquisitor is the only Zork game I don't own. I feel cheated. I'll find it at some point.
