Re: Logarithmically
[quote name="Bill Dungsroman"][quote name="curst"][quote name="FABIO"]Wait, weren't there 4? I thought 2 used pretty much the same graphics engine (old fashioned 2D) as the first, 3 was that FMV one with the cat puzzle, and 4 was the awful one with crappy 3D renders.[/quote] Nope, there's only three. #2 used the FMVs, #3 was in Tomb Raider-quality 3D. I know this after hearing the wailing and lamentation of one of my friends who bought the third one and at that point had his revelation about how bad adventure games suck in a general sense. I got a glimpse of it and... holy crap. I'm a Sierra veteran, yet the suck still hit me like a Lennox Lewis jab.[/quote] Oooooouughhghhhg...fuck, that game sucked. I've only played three adventure games since: Grim Fandango, Sanitarium, and The Longest Journey. TLJ was pretty fun, actually, and I almost shit when I saw it still for sale at Fry's. Gf is good, of course, but Sanitarium is overrated. The box said "Scary!" it should have been a little more precise: "Scary-once!" [/quote]
