Gabriel Knight returns in the most visually-impressive game of the trilogy. One of the best things about this game is the excellent use of Full-Motion-Video (FMV), a much-abused game element at that time in the industry. Unfortunately, being all FMV made the game seem more like a series of awesome screenshots with sound than a real "game". The feeling of actually being Gabriel Knight is much rarer in this installment when compared to the first one. More interactivity would have lent itself so well to character and plot development. However, this is still a great game with an excellent story, and I would recommend it.

While the graphics look outdated now, and the music is all midi-based instead of digital, the first in the Gabriel Knight trilogy remains one of the best adventure games ever made. I spent many months absorbed in the great story and deep characters created by Jane Jenson, the literary genius of the computer game world. The designers got the atmosphere of New Orleans perfect for the technology of the time, and the music is astoundingly good! If you're a fan of incredible characters and an atmosphere you can lose yourself in, check this fine piece of work out.

This has to be one of my all-time favourite films, in the same league as "Run Lola Run", "Pi", and "Contact" for films that make you feel something you've always known to be true but just weren't quite aware of. Never have I seen such a subtle and innocent social critique. Amazing visuals, wacky sound effects, and a well-suited musical score add tremendously to the already brilliant plot. This film is much more than a simple movie, it is a work of art. Consider yourself lucky if you get to see this gem, for most will surely overlook it.
