Oh that reminds me of the Sierra game that was so hard for me to purchase at the time I "had"" to pirate it:

Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards

The first game I can remember that was locked up behind counters and you had to specifically ask for it (and where forgetting to get and use a condom was fatal :ph34r: )
