Title speaks for itself.
I'll go first:The 1996 PC game "Toonstruck."
Here's some video of the game play:

Did anyone else play this? I was absolutely in love with the creativity, graphics, game play, comedy and overall visuals of this game as a kid. Really a heck of a lot of fun. I tried loading it up again a few years back but it seems I need a much older computer to play it. Shame.
Anyway, you guys know the drill. What was your favorite game (of any console) to play as a kid that you wish you could relive today?

Toonstruck is an adventure game released in 1996 in which, although all the imagery is drawn and scanned into the game, the protagonist Drew Blanc (played and voiced by Christopher Lloyd) is an actual video-captured representation of the actor (the name is a pun, since the character has "drawn a blank" on coming up with a new idea for a character). Drew's sidekick, crudely named Flux Wildly, is a drawn character voiced by Dan Castellaneta. Toonstruck also features scan-line compressed FMV and was also one of the first video games to include stock music from APM Music, notably the classic "Spooky Scherzo" by Sam Fonteyn.
