Tales of Monkey Island
Partially because I can’t think of any others right now besides L4D2 and I don’t want to pick it when I bought L4D in January of this year, overpowering L4D2’s chance.
Partially because of how long we had to wait for the 5th Monkey Island game and the sheer awesomeness of the fact that it was indeed released makes it memorable.
Mostly, though, because it was very good and I haven’t gotten to play a puzzle/adventure game like that in awhile besides “Myst” which isn’t the same type of thing.
