Lace Mamba Global has confirmed the forthcoming UK release of the highly anticipated adventure game Gray Matter on both PC and Xbox 360 for Q4 2010. The final worldwide release date will be announced exclusively at the Gamescom event in August of this year.
Good storys are quite rare among the videogames business nowadays. So much the better, if you finally find a game with a moving story. The first game Gameplane.de's Editor in Chief ever played was Gabriel Knight: Sins of the fathers, which got a remake recently. That wouldn’t have been possible without Jane Jensen – so it was time to ask one of the icons of the adventure genre out. Enjoy Gameplane.de's interview!
AUTOMATON's Charles Battersby recently sat down with author and game designer Jane Jensen, writer and creative director of the upcoming HD 20th anniversary edition of the classic Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers, who offers some insight on both the future and past of the Gabriel Knight series and more.
An interview with legendary designer Jane Jensen discussing the upcoming Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers 20th Anniversary Edition (and other topics). Here's an excerpt of her response as to why Gabriel Knight wasn't part of the Sierra announcement at Gamescom:
I have spoken to the people behind the new Sierra brand, in fact just before Gamescom. They are very supportive of the GK HD game. Bob Loya has mentioned it in several interviews. Our deal with them to make GK1 was done well before their internal Sierra brand initiative, so it was already in motion in a certain way. Pinkerton Road is publishing it, so therefore we’re not technically under the new Sierra brand. But, as I said, they’re supportive of the game, and we hope to work together on future titles soon under that Sierra logo.
Definitely getting this game. Don't know which platform yet. On the one hand, I've played every other Jane Jensen game on PC, but on the other hand I do like 360 achievements. I'm a trophy-whore most of all, though, so I do wish this was coming to PS3. Why isn't it? Doesn't really matter, though. As long as she finally has a new game coming out (it's been way too long!) I can't freaking wait to play it!
