I have played all the Tex Murphy games and they are outstanding. Overseer was the best as far as quality, game play and creativity. I am still waiting for another Tex Murphy game to hit the market...it's been years, but I always look. They're my favorites and I still play them.

You wrote that the ending to Overseer was "the best ending I've ever seen in a computer game."
A cliffhanger ending with no resolution is the best ending ever? Dude. The ending to Under a Killing Moon was awesome, and left the door open for sequels while resolving the current story. Overseer left me hanging at the end.

I bought Oversee the day it was available at Computer City(bought by and shut down by Future Shop). I felt more like a spectator given the chance to play a few games. Pandora was superior for story and interactive capabilities. I am hoping your next installment will be more like Pandora.

Thank you.

It is pretty true all your statements, yet the difficulty is surpassed any other game I have ever played. I have lost my Drx3 decoder card, if you can if possible can I get one from you?
