This is how games really should be made, back when gameplay was more about atmosphere and storyline and less about pushing your graphics card to the limits of its capability. Though the graphics are clumsy and dated by todays standards, in 1997 it was more than passable, (If you are going to whine about this games graphics go back and play Doom2 then get back to me)in fact the overall atmoshpere is incredibly well done and stays very true to the vision of the film. Dark, rainy, film noir-esquire confused hero detective in a trenchcoat with a glass of scotch? It has the whole deal, and I thought it looked as beautiful as it played. I've slung an old PC together and loaded this up for the nostalgia value more recently, and its still a great game. The soundtrack and voice acting especially make it stick out. Alongside Fallout this must rate as perhaps one of the greatest, most atmospheric adventure games of all time.
