Adventure Game Thread

Today a trailer for Dracula: Origin was released. The game will be out within the next weeks.

I think the game looks nice and the atmosphere seems to work, even though Dracula looks pretty boring and superficial compared to someone like Lugosi. But still this might be a really nice game.

Yeah I remember bringing this game up before... I think it was in another thread though... I'm too tired to look back in this one or look for it... lol But I remember posting pictures for it... I plan on getting this game, it looks great...

Thanks for the Trailer Von, that was great...

No problem I remembered you brought up Dracula : Origin in some thread, thats why I posted the trailer

Can't wait for it to come out... It looks really involved... I love those kind of games...
Wish I could find the System Requirements somewhere... You haven't seen them posted anywhere, have you??? I've looked, but they aren't on the main website...

Unfortunately I don´t know the requirements, but its not a 3D Adventure so they should be moderate, just like other new adventures.
But Iwill write the review for the game, that means I´ll get it some days before it´s released ( June 6.th in Germany). As soon as they send me the game I´ll check the requirements on the package and tell you them.

I appreciate that... Thanks...

I don't know how many others here have Playstation 3, but is there anyone else waiting for Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots, to come out in June???

I have moderate expectations of the game, but, yes, I will purchase it when it arrives.

Why Moderate??? You don't think they learned from their Sons Of Liberty accident??? That's what I like to call Sons Of Liberty, an Accident...
The 3rd one, Snake Eater was pretty good... Went back in time a bit, gave an origin from where Snake came from and all...

We'll see... I hope it is good... My expectations are a little bit higher than yours, but after the Sons Of Liberty Accident, maybe I should lower them a bit, just to avoid disappointment...



There is a Guitar Hero 4 in the works as well... Says you'll be able to make your own songs with the 4th edition of the game...

For Jane Jensen, or James Patterson fans.....

James Patterson’s “Women’s Murder Club: Death in Scarlet” From I-play Launches Exclusively on MSN Games
MSN Games premieres the first interactive experience from the best-selling author and leading casual games publisher I-play.


REDMOND, Wash. — May 15, 2008 — Microsoft Corp.’s MSN Games and I-play, the publishing division of Oberon Media Inc., today unveiled “Women’s Murder Club: Death in Scarlet,” the first interactive game based on a story and characters by best-selling author James Patterson. The first in a planned series of games based on Patterson’s massively popular “Women’s Murder Club” (“WMC”) books is debuting exclusively on MSN Games, one of the world’s leading casual gaming sites, in collaboration with the game’s creator, leading casual games publisher I-play. “Women’s Murder Club: Death in Scarlet” is available exclusively on MSN Games through May 29.

The game, which features the characters from the “WMC” books and an all-new, never-before-seen storyline, is a thrilling seek-and-find adventure designed by award-winning game designer Jane Jensen in collaboration with Patterson. Its storyline lets fans experience the suspense of James Patterson’s stories interactively for the first time as they solve a chilling series of murders in San Francisco.

“The opportunity for casual games built around intriguing stories and compelling characters is largely untapped, and who better to lead the way than America’s No. 1 storyteller, James Patterson?” said Kevin Unangst, senior global director of Games for Windows in the Entertainment and Devices Division at Microsoft. “We’re thrilled to partner with James Patterson and I-play to debut a game of this caliber on MSN Games.”

The game will be promoted extensively throughout the MSN network, including on MSN.com, MSN Games, MSN Entertainment and MSN Shopping, as well as on Microsoft.com.

“MSN Games is a great place to debut a high-profile casual game with a powerful brand like James Patterson, based on the strength of their audience and the scope and reach of the MSN and Microsoft networks,” said Don Ryan, head of I-play. “We’re excited to work with them and are looking forward to an incredible debut for the first ‘Women’s Murder Club’ game.”

“Women’s Murder Club: Death in Scarlet” is available exclusively at MSN Games from May 15 through May 29. Visit http://www.games.msn.com for more information.

It's pretty light, casual game.
Thought I'd spread the word. You can play it for 1 hour for free. The whole game (took me a few hours) is $20.

Thanks a lot Jen. I guess it´s no secret I´m a big Jensen fan, waiting for Gray matter impatiently, so that´s definately interesting for me, I´m downloading the trial version right now. I knew Jane used to develop Casual games, I just didn´t know she kept doing it while at the same time working for publisher DTP, which confuses me a bit, but okay a casual game can´t be a Gabriel Knight or Gray matter, but who knows since Jane is responsible for it, it might be good.

To my knowledge Guitar Hero 4 will be named Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. Thanks, but no thanks. I like more diversity in a game like that than to just play songs from one single band.

Also, MGS 4 only gets moderate expectations because the series gets weirder and weirder as it progresses. Too much silly stuff thrown in. Too much like a random japanese anime with weird stuff going on that nobody EVER gets. What's with those girls, anyway?
