Despite her infallible track record, many gamers feel unease when it is found that the next sequel in the series, Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned, has abandoned the…

Very Good

I have enjoyed playing this game, although technically it was a disaster. Not only was the engine particularly slow, the 3D graphicians apparently had no experience at all working with limited hardware and came up with most ugly simplifications possible.

Double pity: the other andventures were just as ugly and stupid those days, just because they had to be 3D... I remember getting King's Quest 8, and throwing it right out of the window after trying to play it for 10 minutes. On the other hand, first-person-shooters like Half-Life could use 3D technology to their profit and deliver quite a smooth experience.

But how ugly this game really is, you first realize when you see Shenmue for Sega Dreamcast, which came out juat a few months later. The game, which, i believe, has completely redefined the look of all future games, to the better side.

Excellent

Best game ever! Lets hope there will be GK4 some day. And lets hope Jane Jensen's "Gray Matter" game/s will be excellent too.

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!
