Excellent

I so agree with RK, Jane J. should make yet another GK. Actually, JJ owes it to us, the fans…
I loooove Gabriel, he’s my ultimite hero right after Guybrush Threepwood;)
GK3 rocks!

Excellent

The best of the best. Someone has to kidnap Jane Jensen and force her to do a GK4. Tim Curry, the quintessential Gabriel, is still out there, still voicing computer games. This is THE classic series, it would sell sell sell and make plenty of $$$. Please, Jane, please!

I agree with the GK3 review. I believe it to be one of the greatest games in its Era and undoubtely one of the top 5 adventure games ever. To me, the storyline is fantastic and that’s what makes GK3 so great. It’s a must-have for adventure gamers and for people who enjoy great vampire stories. It’s challenging and daring. It’s fun and appealing. It’s Jane Jensen’s. Once again, congratulations to Sierra!

Alright, the game is just amazing, but poor of you, i live in europe(Portugal) and i have the possibility to see the real Rennes-le-Chateau, a lot of people think that this game is just a game, but no, it’s a real mystery. And thanks to game i am another one who likes the mystery and believe me Rennes le chateau is all what you think it is, just mysterious. Nice Page you have here. Almeida

I was VERY disappointed in the graphics and the interface of GK3. I enjoyed the live action and point-and-click action of the GK2 enormously. GK3’s navigational tools are clumsy and took away from my enjoyment of the game. In addition, the background was not as richly detailed as GK2. Overall, a major disappointment. So much so that I abandoned the game after a few tries.

I have a question about GK3. I went to buy it
and they said it was recalled. Why? Is
something wrong with the game, or is it something
esle.

When I compare GK3 to the excellent GK2 I ask myself:
Why am I so lukewarm to the protaganists?
Why don’t I care about the other characters? and Why are they so uninteresting?
Do I really talk like that?
Are chessboard puzzles really necessary?
Where’s the suspense? Where’s the drama?
When’s the pizza guy going to get here?
and finally
Is this adventure almost over yet?
