The way Al Lowe spoke of Magma Cum Laude is a bit unfair to the developers of the game. I would at least be a bit offended...

EMI at least resembled the earlier games as well as was an adventure game. You can't say the same about MCL.
And what Krazy and JHousequake said.

[site hype]Makes you wonder what Adventure Gamers will have to say about it, doesn't it? Hmm.... We'll find out soon enough! [/site hype]

[Mattsius]

You're kidding, right?

[Jackal]

Nope. What makes you think we wouldn't have a reaction?

[Krazy]

Huh? Do you think AGs will have a review of this game (which it won't)? If not what are you thinking?

Well, it's not an adventure game. But now when I think about it you actually have that unwritten policy to review non-adventure games that are successors to adventure games.
Also, when you say "reaction", do you mean a review or something else perhaps?

Hooray, Mattsius!! I'm so glad you picked up on my very precise wording to avoid the word "review".

I won't say more here, except to clarify that we'll be treating it as a non-adventure of interest to adventure gamers.

I'm looking forward to the reaction.
