Caption Contest!
Ever wanted to put your own captions in a game? No? Err… ANYWAY - here’s the idea: I post a couple of screenshots from upcoming titles, and you put subtitles to them. To get the idea, let’s take GK1 shot:
Grace: Gabriel, I think you should consider getting curtains!
You can have as many entries as you like. Big prizes await you! This week’s images are from new Sherlock Holmes and Jack Keane 2:
Recently finished: Four Last Things 4/5, Edna & Harvey: The Breakout 5/5, Chains of Satinav 3,95/5, A Vampyre Story 88, Sam Peters 3/5, Broken Sword 1 4,5/5, Broken Sword 2 4,3/5, Broken Sword 3 85, Broken Sword 5 81, Gray Matter 4/5\nCurrently playing: Broken Sword 4, Keepsake (Let\‘s Play), Callahan\‘s Crosstime Saloon (post-Community Playthrough)\nLooking forward to: A Playwright’s Tale
For Jack Keane… “Are you sure the Beard-O-Matic 3000 will catch on?”
The real problem with reality is the lack of background music.
Knightette of the Order of the Caption
Music is what feelings sound like…
Sherlock Holmes:
Woman “This is a most delicate matter Mr Holmes. On your honour, I beseech you to find the scoundrels who took my left arm, my feet and my shadow. I have little enough to call my own sir, but can share with you the art of levitation as reward.”
(I would play that game!)
3.5 time winner of the “Really Annoying Caption Contest Saboteur” Award!
Haha, love them all… You’re also free to edit and photoshop pictures, if you want to.

Holmes and Watson had heard the old woman was undefeated at staring contests, but couldn’t resist challenging her themselves. Alas, she was even better than the rumors stated, and was able to take them both on at once.
Currently Playing: The Testament of Sherlock Holmes;
Currently Re-Playing: Culpa Innata
Recently Finished: Secret Files: Puritas Cordis, Art of Murder: Hunt for the Puppeteer, Dear Esther
For Jack Keane:
No you fool. You put your left arm IN!
This might be lost on non UK people
Life is what it is.
I’ve got few also:
Sherlock: Ma’am, is this Barnes Bookstore in Melcombe St.?
Lady: No, this is Brothel in Commercial St.
Sherlock: Back to the drawing board, Watson.
Bearded man: You lucky, lucky bastard! (ref.)

Sherlock is saying..
Pardon me Madam, my name is Sherlock Holmes and this is Dr Watson, we are calling on you and your neighbors with an interesting article titled Does God Approve of Sam-Sex Marriage?. We are wondering if you’d be interested in reading this.
An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

The Woman: “Haven’t I seen you somewhere before?”
Sherlock Holmes: “Nope, nu-uh.”
The Woman: “Yes, yes I have. Aren’t you the blokes on that one BBC Sherlock series?”
Dr. John Watson: “...”
Sherlock Holmes: “No.”
The Woman: “Well, who are you?”
Sherlock Holmes: “Err, Gregory House. And this is my friend Wilson. Now, where were you yesterday evening?”

Mrs. Hudson: No, Mr. Holmes, I’m retired now, and there’s nothing you can say or do to convince me to come back to 221 Baker Street! I’ve had enough of your messes, your stinky experiments, and your violin playing to last me the rest of my life, not to mention you and Dr. Watson traipsing up and down the stairs at all hours of the night. You’ll have to find somebody else to tidy up your tobacco crumbs and newspapers and to bring you tea whenever it suits you. I’m finished with all that! Good day to you, gentlemen!
Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations.
I’m just wondering, which SH is this? I don’t recognize the scene at all…
Ooops, I just saw that it says the new one…
Excuse me miss but did you happen to come upon my long johns? They’re pink in colour and bear a lilies motif. I seem to have misplaced them at your rather eventful soirée last night.
Jack: Hmmm. I think something’s missing here. Let me check my inventory. Blunderbuss? Nah. The grip is wrong. Machete? Nope, he’ll cut his fingers off. I know! Fiddle and bow. No? Why not? It looks like a perfect fit. Damn! All I’ve got left is a pair of scissors and a comb. Ah-ha! I should have known. He’s a hairdresser!

Not sure if this is what you meant but here goes anyway….
Sherlock Holmes: Hello mam!We were wondering if we could talk to you about Jeeesus.
