Finally it's here! Sherlock Holmes versus Jack the Ripper is currently available in many European countries and is already considered by all the best Sherlock Holmes adventure. To convince yourself, simply try this demo that will immerse you in a truly realistic and full of life Whitechapel and give you a little taste of what awaits you in this great investigation.
This demo will showcase the many graphical, technical and narrative improvements made by the series as well as the innovative use of two different views. The first one, the classic view, lets you control Sherlock Holmes just like in a point and click game while the second one allows you to play in the first person.
This playable demo of 872 MB lets you play as Sherlock Holmes at the very beginning of the game and witness Jack the Ripper's first murder as a spectator. Shivers are guaranteed, but keep in mind that this playable demo, as well as the complete game, is not advised for players under 16 years old.
Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper allows you to play as the greatest detective of all in the London of 1888. A series of particularly horrible murders creates a real psychosis throughout the country. Atrociously mutilated prostitutes' bodies are found by the police without them being able to find a serious lead. Sherlock Holmes starts looking for clues in the dark and sinister alleys of Whitechapel in order to follow the macabre trail of the one the press now calls Jack the Ripper. During an adventure full of twists, Sherlock Holmes will try to bring out the true identity and the motives of the one who hides behind this scary alias.
The Sherlock Holmes series is known as one of the best franchises in adventure games and is very popular with around 1.5 million copies sold worldwide. Now, Sherlock Holmes is back with a game that will give a new dimension to the series. Indeed, Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper will offer players two different views that are accessible at any time: a third person view in the purest style used in point & click adventure games, as well as a first person view. The player will be free to play in one or the other modes or even combine them for greater immersion into this terrifying adventure. Another novelty: the player will also find an original crime scene reconstitution system that will allow him to test his theories during his progress in the investigation to follow the bloody trail of the terrifying serial killer.
Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper will be released for DVD ROM PC in May of 2009 and at the end of the year on Xbox360. Demo can be downloaded HERE or HERE.

As I mentioned - it is 6 hours ahead over there. So they might contact you tomorrow.
Celtic and Trisha, Please check your e-mail. This might help for tomorrow.

Dear GB members,
We wrongly uploaded the french version of Sherlock Holmes VS Jack the Ripper on our servers.
I want to keep you informed about te situation, even if it is late at night here in Europe.
We are working on a solution for replacing that master as soon as possible.
For all our customers who already bought the french version, we will send them the link to download the english version.
We sincerely apologize for this.
Damon
