I admit, I don't normally go for HOGs, but the Hector: Badge of Carnage series is quite amusing, if entirely unsuitable for polite company. =:) I go more for the puzzle based sorts, of which the two (so far) Puzzle Agent titles are good examples, with well-balanced problems, and a nicely acted backstory, reminiscent of a somewhat more light-hearted Twin Peaks (which is not to say comedic).

I suddenly wonder, if you decide to do them again, do they become memory HOGs?

Kildoo played one of those hidden object games called Age of Atlantis or something and the hidden objects were like these tiny fragments, then you put them all together so that some crystal lights up and then the stupid crystal exploded, its like WTF, that sorta defeats the whole point of the game if you have to light these crystals and they go all explodey anyways, friggin dumb ( ... )
