Sherlock Holmes vs Jack the Ripper

[Ausgirl]

I just got an x-box! I've been killing dragons and bandits like nobody's business for two solid weeks now. These Sherlock games are -definitely- on my must-get list.

Wow this game is impressive! Even has John Richardson, Schwartz & lipski, hardiman, tumblety, sickert, bulling, I'm half expecting the pinchin torso to pop up next!..more in depth than some ripper books I've read! Really awesome to explore the crime scenes and walk around whitechapel.

I finished this game a while back, it is a very interesting and enjoyable game and recommend it to anyone with an interest in JtR even if only for the entertainment value.

By far this is the best of the Holmes games. The others are good, although Nemesis annoys me by being First Person only, the clues are far easier to find in third person. Another reason this is the best? The clipboard sections for clues, and crime scene investigations are far better than the "type the answer to the quiz" mechanics in other games.

I have no doubt that Sherlock Holmes smokes a pipe of better quality than Joseph Barnett's clay one found at the murder scene of Mary Jane Kelly.

Don't be too sure. Holmes's favorite pipe was his "old and oily" black clay pipe mentioned in "A Case of Identity," "The Blue Carbuncle," "The Copper Beeches," "Red Headed League" and Hound of the Baskervilles, among others. A favored pipe is like an old friend whose comfortable company is sought above that of all others.

Im playing this at the moment on the Xbox. Ive just worked out that jtr lives in the Algate district of Whitechapel , a lot of fun to play. It would be interesting to see how accurate Holmes's investigation is!

Low point was the Dear Boss letter, which was worded rather differently!

I played it and enjoyed it! first time through i found it a bit tedious but its a good game for those interested in jack or Sherlock Holmes like myself.

The new game is being released by the Adventure company. The previous Sherlock Holmes games are quite good, and I will definitely be purchasing this latest installment.

What do you guys think about it? From what I've read and seen, it's going to be really accurate in depicting Whitechapel in 1888.
