It looks good and the touch controls are good. But it's so neuteured without Nico's cheesy french voice.

I've had this baby in my backlog for the last couple of years, I'm glad I never got around to it.

there's no other Wii game in 2009 I'm more excited about, granted, that isn't saying so much.  But still, I'm way pumped about this.

It starts out with an EVIL MIME instead of an EVIL CLOWN

I vaguely remember playing this on GBA years and years ago, is this the same one where the clown blows up the cafe and you're like "wow what an exciting mystery I have been drawn into"

I want another Gabriel Knight   :'(

one of the recent Edge's had a "Making Of..." on Gabriel Knight. It was so sad to read it and realise there are no more games like that.

Jane Jensen has a new adventure game coming out this year though: Grey Matter.  Whether she's become untalented in the decade between GK3 and this...dunno, but I'll be optimistic and hope it will be great.

On topic, I really liked Broken Sword 1 back a ton of years ago on the PC.  But I'll be damned if I'm paying $50 to replay an adventure game I A) already own and B) is like $5 everywhere now.  Slighty better graphics and some new content doesn't justify the price tag.  At $30 I would've given it a shot.
