DARKSTAR - FMV Adventure
I can't believe no one is talking about this game. I've been following it for quite a few years now. Now we are finally close to the release date! :D

Woo... seems nice... I'm intrigued. :P
But wait.. do I recognize some of those faces? Do I... ? This.. song in my head... ♪♫"In the not too distant future"♫♪ |
Awesome.... does anyone know what the System Requirements will be for this game?
|
I'm pretty sure the system requirements haven't been announced yet. It has been said, though, that the game is very large and will be on eight double density discs. I'm definitely going to get the digital version.

WOW... I LOVE FMV adventures and I had no idea of this game :D, It looks really interesting
Thank You very much for posting this, I want this gameee!!! :D Regards |
This looks really great! I have my reservations about interactive movies, because I don't like quick time event game-play. But the trailer showed a more traditional adventure game-play with puzzles and exploration. This could be huge!!!

Shameless plug, I know, but what the heck... All you could possibly want to know about Darkstar is right here in this interview:
http://www.slightly-deranged.com/?page_id=1188 Unfortunately, Rush music won't make it to the final game :( |
^ Thanks for the link. Great interview.
Yeah, they went back and forth on the Rush thing for a long time. Apparently, the band was all for it, but Universal kept raising the price for the music over and over again, ultimately wanting over $100,000 I believe, which is just crazy. So they ended up just creating their own original music, which I think turned out great. |
6 GB for a partial install?!
44 GB for a full install :crazy: That's one way to combat piracy! |
I hope this game is at least aware of how insanely tacky it looks. If Frank Coniff is on board, it must, right?

OMG it's the Duke Nukem Forever of adventure games.
I never beleived this would get a release (or DNF) and here they are both announced for release in the same week. Cooool. I alway liked the look of this game, but can it live up to the expectation/hype? |

Frank Coniff is from MST3K. He made a living making fun of stuff like this. So it must be self-aware. Right? |

I'll wait to actually play the game before I even consider having to resort to the MST3K mantra. For now, all I know is that not just TV's Frank is in it, but also many other familiar faces (heck, even Joel!), so I'm pretty sure they won't be taking themselves too seriously. Besides, the sets for the Satellite of Love were very tacky, and I loved it. All in all, this is a game I'll be looking forward for. |
Looks intriguing....a little bit reminiscent of Farscape. Speaking of FMV adventure games are there any other recent ones (aside from Casebook)? Or any good classic ones I should track down? I'm familiar with most of the console ones from the Sega CD/3D0/PSX/Saturn eras but never really had a chance to mess around with the genre on PC much. Any suggestions?

That guy in the middle looks like Chuck Norris :D. I dunno, I'm not so sure about this one...

Hmm, I don't know. I was a big fan of FMV games in the 90's. I remember really enjoying Night Trap, Double Switch & Sewer Shark on my old Sega CD. I tried to get into it recently by purchasing The X-Files Game and Black Dahlia, but I'm having a hard time getting back into it.
The trailer doesn't make this game look that great. Maybe it's the bad acting. I guess you are so much more limited with filmed actors. If I had to compare it to something, it reminds me of Angel Devoid, which I actually liked at the time. TrueG ------------------------- www.computerabuser.com |
Bad acting , dated graphics and a whooping 44 gb ? I loved FMV games but this is just ridiculous.
And here i thought the japanese PS2 fmv game "The Fear" was huge with 4 dvds. |
