Easily one of the best shows to ever air on television. Fox ruined it’s chances by running the episodes on a weird time-slot and all out of order. Glad to see that you enjoyed it (I’m also a HUGE X-files fan. DO NOT SEE THE NEW MOVIE!!).
I think you ought to check out George MacDonald’s Phantastes. An absolutely wonderful- yet horribly ignored- book.

I don’t know what sorts of guidelines you are using, but I would consider putting the recent game “Bioshock” into the computer games category.
