2.Syberia II
3.Sam & Max 2
4.Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude
5.Longest Journey 2
6.Legacy: Dark Shadows
7.Black Mirror
8.Midnight Nowhere
9.Runaway 2
10.Journey to the Center of the Earth
Here's the play-by-play of updates:
Last week, #1 was
Broken Sword 3, by a long shot. This week it's been released, so it's outta here. In it's place...
Sam and Max! What an upset! Syberia 2 is spitting up S&M's dust, for, well, no reason that I can think of. Maybe it's too near release? No, that's not quite right...
LSL and TLJ shift up a spot, to fill the void and/or trail of dust left by Sam and Max. In 5th place... a newcomer! Well, sort of. It seems magic and mystery have it that Project Jane-J suddenly skyrocketed into stardom, even though there's been no recent news.
Legacy stays at 6th place, and
Black Mirror's been released, so
Midnight Nowhere and
Runaway 2 shift up one. In 9th place, we have TAC's Jack the Ripper! Looks kinda cool. And Journey to the Center of the Earth, well, consesus is that it's no good, plus it might've been released already, so
Mystery of the Druids dev House of Tales's
Moment of Silence steps up to the #10 spot.
So the new HOM, in case you're too lazy to click on the big logo on the top-left of this page, is:
1. Sam & Max 2
2. Syberia II
3. Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude
4. TLJ: Static
5. Project Jane-J
6. Legacy: Dark Shadows
7. Midnight Nowhere
8. Runaway 2
9. Jack the Ripper
10. Moment of Silence
