Default Runaway 2
I hope all of you have now played Runaway: a road adventure, one of the best adventure games ever. What do you think about the recently announced sequel? Will pendulo make an even better game? Are you looking forward to it?

Dunno if I will. There's a lot of other games coming out that I'm sure I'll like better. It's sad to think of, but adventures aren't my number one genre any more....

Hmm, still Runaway hasn't landed in Finland...

Sweden, Denmark & Norway already have it. Why can't it come here?

It really can. Or was it a rethorical question?

It's all matter of localization and the company that publishes the localized version.

I still haven't seen it here, Ireland, the original I mean. Any word on that, has it been released in the UK?

That won't change anything for me. I've played more new (and good) RTSes recently than I have adventures, and I've never been an RTS man. Adventures are "just" another genre to me now.

I've not played Runaway, but it's rather low on my adventure game priority list. From what I've heard about it, it seems worth playing but not incredible.

I surely hope they've learned from the mistakes they did with the previous game, so the sequel will be nearly as good as Monkey Island or something

Oh, and I wonder which plot they're laying out this time...
Spoiler:
The gang is gone.. no trace whatsever of Brian and Gina..
I hope Pendulo can work out a nice way to make trouble for them again

Marek: added a spoiler tag for ya

I'm still waiting; current release date for the UK is now 14th November, nine whole months since the original release date.
