WOW

I have spent the last two weeks replaying one of THE
adventuregames of all time.

The Pandora Directive

A game filled with all the goodies a great adventure game should have. Compared to many of the games produced the last couple of years it still stands tall. What ever you do, you simply must give Tex a go, you wont be sorry.

The only thing that makes me is that it's over, at least for this time.

Since I have replayed all but one, Overseer, I quickly wipe the tears away and I'm feeling again.

Cheers

Glad you enjoyed the revisiting of an old favorite.

Hi, Lagavulin!

ICAM with your comments. Good old Tex was one of a kind, that's for sure. To me, he's a cross between Sam Spade and Columbo, and James Earl Jones made dying almost a pleasure ! Those were the days when computer games took at least 2 weeks to complete, but we also paid about $69.99 here in Canada as compared to $19.99 today.

I absolutely hate how "Overseer" left us hanging, but I haven't given up hope that some other company will buy the rights to Tex and release a final game to tie up all of the loose ends.

Yup, Pandora Directive is on my all time best list too.

I only have nine games rated A+. Pandora is one of those and only two games produced in the last ten years are on that short list. I recently got a used Under A Killing Moon which I will replay in the near future. If memory serves correct I expect UAKM will join that exclusive club. I guess that speaks volumes about the games they have rushed to market since 2000.

Susie07 Could you imagine if some one came out with a follow up to the Overseer .They would make a packet .Mind you it would have to be good .Any game makers out there want a challange this is it ....A follow up to Overseer .

Hi, dragonuk44!

I don't know who owns the rights to the Tex Murphy series, but gamers have been begging for a sequel to "Overseer" ever since they were left hanging. We didn't think we'd ever see a sequel to "The Black Mirror" or "Still Life" and they're in the works, so anything is possible.

You're bang on that whoever comes up with a sequel to "Overseer" would make a packet because the game would probably sell out in record time.

I have played this game a dozen times... It's one of the best i agree with you

Glad you enjoyed it again

I have also played it many more than a dozen times since I got it when it first came out and it captures me every time I play it. Even after playing many new highly graphic games this game still stands out above them for me.

Wish some one would take it on

Overseer was actually the first Tex game "Mean Streets" retooled for windows with better graphics. There really were no loose ends as UAKM was the continuation of Overseer and Pandora Directive from there. The order of the Tex games in actual chronological sequence is Overseer, UAKM and Pandora Directive.

I neve managed to get the Pandora Directive. I do not know if it was ever released in the UK.

Hi, Barry!

UAKM was the first Tex Murphy game I played, but I don't remember the loose ends from the Overseer cliffhanger being tied up.
