Did anybody pick this up? I snagged it on release day. I never played the old Tex Murphy games, but I liked the concept of this so I picked it up.
It's like playing a point-and-click adventure game, but in first person. The textured are rather low res, but look decent with a high resolution. The setting areas you explore are really cool, too. It reminds me of Snatcher and Blade Runner.
Of course, the great thing about it is the return if FMV. It's pretty interesting how they'd implement this in a modern game. The acting is deliciously cheesy, but the story is compelling enough to keep you interested. My only gripe is that the puzzles aren't really puzzles. You get stuck at times, but it's just a matter of being thorough and exploring to advance the game.
You can see a gameplay clip here(watch out though, there are spoilers)
