Quote:
In Crimes & Punishments, become Sherlock Holmes and use your impressive talents as a detective to solve six thrilling and varied cases: murders, missing persons, spectacular thefts and numerous investigations that sometimes lead you into the realms of the fantastic. The great freedom of action in Crimes & Punishments allows you to conduct your investigations in the manner you deem appropriate. Choose the leads you wish to pursue, interrogate your suspects and, from your deductions, name the guilty parties... and determine their fate wisely, as surprising consequences may arise where you least expect them.

His skills, your wits. Become Sherlock Holmes from September 30 when Crimes & Punishments releases on PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.

About Crimes & Punishments
Crimes & Punishments marks the most important stage in the Sherlock Holmes series. The decision by Frogwares studios to switch from the in-house engine to the Epic Unreal Engine 3 enables a much richer, more immersive and detailed rendering of both the environments and characters.

But the change of game engine has not only improved the graphics; new investigation techniques have been developed and the game can now offer 14 game mechanics. From the opening of each of the six investigations up to the arrest of the culprits and the moral dilemmas faced by the players, the new game mechanics convey the feeling of BEING Sherlock Holmes. Players will therefore be able to exploit the incredible gifts and talents for which he is renowned, such as his ability to guess the details of an individual's life simply by observing them, or to imagine and reconstruct a past event by studying the key features of a crime scene.





Happy Gaming!

I pre-ordered the game in Amazon, it has a coupon for $10 to buy something sold and shipped by Amazon. These kind of coupons do not last for ever, normally until the last day of the month, since it comes out the 30th I hope it last until the end of October think. They are good for people who buy a lot there.

I did the same as you did MCC. Cheaper than some of the other downloads.

mcc and kjos (or anyone else)

Have you used this coupon before? I have never paid attention to those boxes. What does the following mean (copied from the Amazon help section regarding coupons)?

"The coupon applies only to qualifying items displaying the coupon offer in your Coupon Book and on the item detail page."

Is the coupon only good for certain items (like only a few things)? What is the "Coupon Book" mentioned?

I will not pay $40 for the game but will go with $30 if I can use the coupon.

Google Amazon coupons. There are a lot of access to those coupons but I am not familiar with them to know if they are safe or if there are more stuff attached to them.

Thanks kjos and MaG.
MaG, I don't think the stuff showing up on google is what this is. I read on Amazon's site about their coupons/promo codes but was hoping somebody who has used it can clarify it a little better.

Press copies went out and likely were shared with those that recorded it. It has not been officially released yet.

The coupons are good for "everything sold and shipped by Amazon" not third parties. Most things Amazon sells fall in this category, the only "negative" thing I have found is that are good for a limited time only, in general until the last day of the month that they are issued. I buy a lot in Amazon then is not problem for me, it could be an issue for people who only buy there occasionally.

In this case I don't know until this coupon will be valid since the game is released the last day of the month.

The day the game is released Amazon sends you a coupon number that you can introduce as a discount at check out, sometimes it goes directly and applies to the next purchase. I used it many times with no issues.

Thanks mcc for that information. Sounds like a good deal then! I think I will go ahead and place my preorder while I still can. I have some other things I want so I'll be able to use the coupon.

Good oldbroad ! It would be wise to check the dates on it, I have never bought one game released the last day of the month. The computers may decide to put the coupon good until 30th of September as crazy as it may be slapforehead

Edited 9/29, my game is already shipped and the coupon will be applied directly as credit to may account. Good until February.

Playing now and the graphics are out of the world. Just like your watching a movie. Don't know how the auto-saves work. Is it ok if I talk about the game?

Go ahead, Richard. laugh Glad you're enjoying the graphics. They're certainly something.

Remember that any plot spoilers should be placed in spoiler brackets, out of consideration for those who haven't yet played the game. thanks
