Just finished Kane & Lynch 2 and damn its short. 3-4 hours short infact so happy i didn't pay full price for it.

Combat was better than the first but i was not a big fan of the phone camera effect they went for in this one and at times the camera is way too close to the character.

Hope they announce a 3rd soon with them in
Ecuador


But at the moment the Producers are being sued at a court in Beijing for "vilifying" Chinese people.

Finished DMC3 and I love it. I would say this one is my favorite although its a close call with 1.

Sly Cooper 3 I will start tomorrow.

@Thief: The Longest Journey and Dreamfall are the two best adventure games I ever played. Really great. Dreamfall plays a lot like Shenmue, in fact. It's fantastic, and I highly recommend it, if you haven't played it already. Didn't know Chapters was coming out.

Also, I can't say enough about Grim Fandango. It's the best thing LucasArts ever did.

In some places, surely, but that's the price you pay for going full 3D, I suppose. However, there are some parts of Dreamfall that are just as good looking as TLJ. I think the main issue with Dreamfall, at least for me, was that I really missed playing April Ryan. I've never liked jumping around as different characters in a game.

Of course, the best part of Dreamfall is Wonkers the Watilla. What a great character!

I miss the indigo worlds of Deus Ex, Anacronox, Dreamfall (and even Outcast gets really blue tint heavy at times)

theres so many people that like adventure games but only ever played like 1 or 2 of the classics. I still have to go through and finish half the Broken Sword series.

BTW I remember the name Gabriel Knight, I think i played one but i can't seem to put the two things together does anyone remember playing em (On sale on GOG http://www.gog.com/gamecard/gabriel_kni ... he_fathers)

I could buy every game i want on gog (over 40) for les then 100$. Fucking classic games rule.

Hey, you've played the best. Great games. Outcast was brilliant. Yeah, I love Gabriel Knight. The first game in the series is my favorite. Great atmosphere and story. Wicked neat setting, and Tim Curry plays Gabriel Knight. Can't go wrong with that.

Did any of you gentlemen play Gray Matter, by the same author (jane jensen)? And if so, what did you make of it?

I got the demo for Grey Matter, and was offered the game, but I declined. Didn't seem all that to me.

Now that I am 100% done with Sly 3 time for another game.

I'm thinking Folklore.

^^That sounds pretty good. I may want to start Folklore again pretty soon as well.
Played enough to know I love it, but still hadn't beaten it. Definitely a priority.
