Indeed.  Very sad news.  RIP.

Ordered The Case of Charles Dexter Ward on CD and can't wait until it arrives!  Anybody managed to listen to it yet?

I enjoyed Dead Space, but I didn't really get on with Alan Wake.  I was a bit on the fence about Dishonored.  Is it worth getting?

The Mac version appears to be a port of the iPad version, rather than, as would've been better, a port of the original PC version.  I have finished the game on iPad, but I'm not over-familiar with the game, so I can't give you exact details on how the puzzles work.  Some of them are a little fidgety though.  I can therefore however, reassure you that the iPad version can be finished, since I have done so.

Hope this helps answer your question.

Couple of new Lovecraftian games on the App Store for iPad.

Firstly, Necronomicon - The Dawning of Darkness.  It's a point and click adventure game that was first released on PC and PSone, but it works fairly well on iPad.

Then, there's Frogwares Sherlock Holmes and H. P. Lovecraft mash-up The Awakened, which is, of course, a port of the PC version.  I've just finished it on iPad and I was really impressed.

Splendid!  Wow, you have godlike powers to alter reality!

I'm really curious to see, or rather, hear, how The Case of Charles Dexter Ward turns out.  The first Dark Adventure adaptation to be episodic and on two CDs!

Well, I got some money and bought the CD.  Thoroughly enjoyed it, I really love the Dark Adventure Radio Theatre adaptations.

Given there are more on the way, I should've just titled the thread DARK ADVENTURE RADIO THEATRE rather than dedicate one for just this release.

Will grab my copy when I'm next in possession of some money

So it would seem the next episode of Dark Adventure Radio Theatre is to be The Call of Cthulhu.  Don't know about anybody else but I'm very excited.  I was wondering whether this would be disqualified as an episode of DART as the H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society had already done this story as a film.  So I'm glad to see this isn't the case!

Oh, and just to add, the artwork for the CD cover looks great!

I must admit, I prefer being able to save whenever I like.

Most FPS games tend to favour save-points or checkpoints these days, though.

An extra save-point just inside the door after you jump from the hotel window would've made all the difference, though. It's a great game, but it certainly has its problems.
11  Mythos Matters / Cthulhu Entertainment & Gaming / Re: What Film Adaptations Do You Want To See? on: September 07, 2012, 10:21:53 AM
Ah, The Stone Tape.  That was a good watch.

I'll answer your questions if you really want them answered, but I wouldn't want to spoil the game for you.  The only answer I can give for now is to keep playing.  All will become clear...

I don't play games based actual wars usually.  I haven't got any of the acall of Duty games.  The closest I've ever come to playing a war game is the Wolfenstein series, and that was really due to the fantasy/supernatural/horror elements.

However, I've been hearing good things about Spec-Ops: The Line, and that it is supposed to be deeper than the usual shooters of today, and quite unsettling at times.  So perhaps I'll give this a look.

Developed by Headfirst and published by Bethesda.

I'd love it if the next HPLHS film project was The Shadow Over Innsmouth!
