The International House of Mojo

David Fox of the olden LucasArts days wrote in to tell us that the Smithsoniam Museum is looking to select 80 games for its upcoming The Art of Video Games exhibit. You can vote for your favorites from the pool of candidates, which have been organized into five "Eras," and then by system and four genres.

What David rightly wanted us to be aware of was the fact that amongst the nominations you will find the following seminal works and Mojo darlings: Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders (Era 2 - Commodore 64 - Adventure Genre), Grim Fandango (Era 4 - DOS/Windows - Adventure Genre), and Psychonauts (Era 5 - Microsoft Xbox - Action Genre).

So make your voice heard, and do your part to ensure that these classics may bask in the eternal prestige they deserve. "It belongs in a museum!"

Update: As Kroms (not to mention Ron Gilbert) notes, Monkey Island 1 will be playable at the exhibit, having leapfrogged the entire voting process due to its inherent worthiness.
