New Old craze. Phantasmagoria Gabriel Knight 3

Phantasmagoria.

Wow. This game is on SEVEN CDs. I only have the first one. I was a bit disappointed about that since I assumed I had the whole game. Nope. Only the first CD.

Still it was an exciting little romp through the house collecting random items and dealing with asshole real estate agents.

The install was a bit insane because you have to skip all the testing or else XP would crash. But after that everything worked great! Amazing.



Overall it's a sweet game and I kinda want to finish it.

Tim Curry voice acts a Southerner in GK3. It's so weird. I haven't played the game much. It's a pain to install (I had to try twice) and for some reason the game was REALLY dark

Caleb, you have to believe me and persevere through the first dull bits of GK3, for it is the best game Sierra ever produced and the best non-comedic adventure I've ever played. It's an absolute masterpiece with the glorious Serpent Rouge mega-puzzle being the gem of all adventures.

Yeah I got the game set up properly now and I am getting used to the 3d adventure system. I didn't get the manual with the game.

The multi-camera system is pretty cool.

I like how you can click on pretty much anything and get a description.

In any case it's probably the best .50 cents I have paid for a garage sale game yet.

FULL MOTION VIDEO!

Seriously, that video is like 20% of the screen at the most. Blimey.

.50&? Wow.... Now, do yourself a favor and grab the old boxed version (complete with manual, graphic novel etc) for a bit more @ eBay.

Oh come on Gnome I got the comic book in Adobe PDF on the CD!

hmm. Maybe if I find a good price.

Well, I bought my complete original box in a proper downtown store for a mere 5000 drachmas, meaning a) that was before the invasion of the bloody euro b) you shouldn't have any trouble grabbing a cheap copy. And you do know how sensuous paper can be, don't you? PDF... Bah!
