Pretty good so far. I think it will turn out that one reason for the variable reports on game length are due to the puzzle-like nature of the cases. If you knew which objects to pick up and where to go, you could get through the cases quickly. But you don't, so it takes you time to look around and see what's important and what isn't. There was also a witness I questioned in the first case that I don't think is necessary, since I restarted the case and skipped it the second time.

And then there's actually passing the interrogations. I had a lot of trouble with my first one, and I don't have the ability to tell truth from lies yet. I'm not even sure when "doubt" is supposed to be used. But, I suppose you can just use trial and error and get it anyway.

The driving is pretty sensitive. Hopefully I'll get used to it.

Is anyone intending to play it in black and white?

Me! I figure, if they put it in there, it'll still be just as playable as the full color mode, and it'll feel more "authentic".

Also, KMart. I did not buy it at Kmart. I probably should have for the free game but I had amassed credit at Amazon so the game cost me nothing out of pocket... and has 15$ towards my next game.

Kmart.

Wow, the driving sucks ass. Feels worse than GTA. It doesn't matter in GTA, because you can bash into anything and it's fine. But here, running into things or people adversely affects your score. If that's the case, then make it easier to drive correctly!

B&W looks awesome, but I've already encountered one part of the game that relies on color (golden door knobs and handles), so I'm going to play in color.

A question

Okay, I just wasn't sure if I had missed something which meant I couldn't progress.

I believe its assumed you called it in and the detectives took over from there your part is complete. At least I'm guessing. I've played 3-4 more cases after that one and it has not come back.

For 1947? I guess if you're thinking this is a TV serial as opposed to a theatrical release. Wizard of Oz was 1939.

Regardless, the vast majority of movies at that time were B&W, especially those that inspired this game. I hope they can patch it so the golden doors flash or sparkle in the B&W mode.

I wonder if it's a result of installing?

Deftones - are you installed or no?
