I wonder if Dean will consider getting a Twitter account so he can do some tweeting for his fans.
Ok that was just too cool finding this on the web. GK4, FMV, with Dean. I'll fork over another 60-70 for it easy.
And he still beat Orlando Bloom in "Acting An Adventure-Game Typical Hero Chart"!

Excellent interview. Seeing an old friend after years is so fantastic. I think Gabriel series is one of the beast advanture games ever made. By the way, does he have a facebook account?
Very interesting interview, but one question remains unanswered. Is Dean the Dream still looking for a jumpshot after all these years?
Thomas?

Show our wolves to Mr. Knight (?)
Excellent interview! I loved this game, and Mr. Erickson's portrayal of Gabriel Knight is a big reason for that. I haven't played it in a few years but I always think about it from time to time, especially when I come across elements from the game in real life, like cuckoo clocks and german sausage. I really wish they would expand upon this character in more games or books or movies.
Great Interview! What about the Will Binder-Interview that is mentioned in the "related articles"-section? It seems, it´s not online, yet. Anything to come?
I think Dean did a wonerful jod as G. Night. I really think he should do another game as G. Night. Thanks Dean for making that game stand out in my mind.
Nice to hear from Dean Erickson who did a fantastic job as Gabriel Knight in the second part of the series. I have played this game few times through and it is just amazing. It has got great acting, story, music and places. This game has gotten to my mind: various images from different events of the game, the music haunts me sometimes.. I actually feel this is like a movie that I can experience over and over again without losing interest, unlike other games lose interest after playing once through. I can't wait to play it again after I have read the Sins of the Fathers book.. Absolutely the best adventure game! Dean did a great job and if it will happen that he acts in some production, I would look to that with great interest. You were cool as Gabriel Knight!
