BTW

I heard Frogwares released Sherlock Holmes vs Jack The Ripper. See if you can find a torrent and give me the link. I don't care if it's a slow download, I can live with it. If I find one first, I'll post it. And don't you ask the nice people on Yahoo! Answers to find it for you as I did with Secret Files 2! That's cheating! And I'm the only one allowed to cheat here!

Got it, blowing my brains up now!

Got "Secret Files: Puritas Cordis" english version. I found a torrent, even though it's veeeeeery fucking slow! Never got over 150 KB/s. Took me 2 damn days to complete the download! Now I installed it (careful, if you mount the images with something else than Daemon Tools it won't work, you'll get a message that the image is invallid even in Alcohol, despite the fact that the image ia .mdf file (Alcohol specific), so don't try anything else than Daemon Tools to mount it. And don't come mocking at me that it works with something else than that! I tried it! Maybe you're just smarter than me. And one more thing. Even though the installed version is approximately 2.5 GB, the uninstalled version that you will get through the torrent is 4.4 GB. Strange, don't know why, so don't ask.
Here's the torrent:

Sherlock Holmes vs Jack The Ripper

See trailer here.

It's true, ladies and gents! Frogwares releases Sherlock Holmes vs Jack The Ripper this month. Wait for further notice!

Secret Files series

I found another great adventure game series besides Broken Sword and Syberia (and yes, I don't mention Dreamfall because my personal opinion is that it sucked!). It's called "Secret Files" and it has been around for a while, but I just didn't think of playing any of them. The first game, "Secret Files: Tunguska" has got medium quality graphics, according to it's release date. The story is interesting, making you want to play it up until the end, without moving away from your computer. At least it made me play it like that, even though I had to leave my computer, as you can't win money if you don't work. Part two, "Secret Files: Puritas Cordis" looks great, and as far as I played it (the English demo only, because I don't know German and thus I can't get the full game yet) it's very interesting, maybe a bit more than the first one. The english full version won't come out until May 8 2009, that is in 6 days from now, so until then you can play a demo (the damn Germans released the game in their own language in August 2008!) consisting of the prologue and the first chapter of the game. The demo can be downloaded here. Notice: it has approximately 900 MB, so may the patience be with you if you have a slow internet connection!

Request for help

I'm desperately trying to find "Secret Files: Tunguska". If anyone knows where could I get it from, please tell me by commenting this article.

Art of Murder II: Hunt for the Puppeteer

I didn't play too much of the first Art of Murder game, because I didn't really like it. I mean, it wasn't running too good (veeeery slow), possibly due to the fact that it's been a while since I last upgraded my good ol' buddy, the PC.
On the other hand, I played the second game in the series, "Hunt for the Puppeteer", which had me impressed. I needed a little help at some point, but it wasn't very difficult, so it didn't take me too much to finish. The quality is reasonable, the graphics deserve an 8.5, maybe 9, the gameplay is also easy to understand, yet I didn't like the producers' choice of mouse cursor. The story is interesting, but I would've liked a dfferent ending (well, you can't have everything, can you?!). I had a problem watching the cutscenes. They were very slow. It's like, the game worked perfectly, but the cutscenes don't. I thought it might have been because the game uses Bink Video by Rad Game Tools, and thus Bink Video might need a special codec or something. Poor Noob Me. I was wrong. I googled my problem and found out of specific settings that are needed to be done in order to have Windows run the cutscenes correctly. So, even if Art of Murder: FBI Confidential sucked (in my opion only, so don't criticise me!), part 2 was a success! I'd give it an overall of about 8.5/10.
