I have a large history in playing adventure games, I own such classics as; the mokey island trilogy, fate of atlantis, day of the tentacle, full throttle, grim fandango and sam & max...I can heartily say, Gabriel  Knight 3 ranks among the best of them. Merely on the strength of this  title, I bought the first and second in the series, and cannot wait to  begin them.  The storyline is superb, and I suggest after playing  the game you read up about the REAL history of Rennes le Chateau, this just  shows how faultless Jane Jenson's stroytelling abilities are. To say that  they ending is controversial is an understatement. The interface is smooth,  akin to that of a 3D level designer, and I cannot imagine playing another  adventure game without it. The graphics are for the most part great, with  cartoony characters, it is a real testament(pun not intended...play the  game, you'll understand) to the game desingers, that despite the graphics  being cartoon in style, the game can be scary in parts. Despite not liking  Tim Curry's 'Gabriel' to begin with, the character grew on me, and he  really 'becomes' the character. Other voice talent is also well done...a  modern classic
