class=l_i_i_left_imgGabriel Knight 3 is a 3D point-and click adventure game. While the classy 2D graphics, or the well-orchestrated FMV sequences of its predecessors may be missed, GK3 fared the transition from 2D to 3D very well. The primary upside is that the in-game environments are now more interactive and open to exploration, much like in the newer Tex Murphy games. The storyline is as deep and complex as ever, filled with dark secrets and unfathomable conspiracies.

I ordered it. I kind of want to play it and I'm genuinely curious just how annoying the DRM will be. Will the setup approach GTA4 levels of stupidity? Will my game pause while playing? We'll see!

By Stormwatcher

Doing that on Steam wouldn't work because Steam has a HUGE disclaimer, and refund requests are evaluate case by case. They could very well deny a refund on the grounds that the whole DRM thing is quit...
