Chalgyr's Game Room:
In Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars you play as George Stobbart, an American tourist who gets involved in an international conspiracy after a murder takes place in front of his eyes in Paris. The conspiracy has to do with two opposing, powerful organizations dating back to the Medieval Times. One of them is the monastic order of the Knights Templar, who were convicted by the Inquisition and executed brutally. The other is the Assassins, a group of devoted, highly effective killers from the Middle East. Thankfully, you are not alone in this endeavor· a young French photojournalist, Nico, is interested in the case and helps you.

Some games are ingrained in our memories due in large part to their music. Final Fantasy, The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros. and more. They are important of course, but every now and then a game tune can be so catchy and memorable - despite the game itself not being elevated to a kind of legendary status in our minds. This list has a few of those types of titles this time around.

It's been a while since we last took a look at some of the more memorable soundtracks in gaming. Hamza, our newest member of the team, has decided to share his thoughts on the matter on a more regular basis - so you should see more like this coming soon.
Silent Hill 4 - Silent Circus
The Silent Hill series is well-known for its acclaimed atmospheric scores, and from the liberal set of memorable, eerie music, Silent Circus is my most favorite. It almost sounds like a rather long intro to a Japanese equivalent of Pink Floyd. Its distinct atmospheric and piercing (albeit mocking) melody is a fitting companion to the psychological horrors of Silent Hill.
The critical acclaim of late 2012's The Walking Dead sees the return of an age old genre of gaming and storytelling - the adventure game.
I really don't understand how with so many TellTale games nobody admits how they all play the exact same yet are the same ones who call out the FPS genre for being the same old thing over and over. Double standards if you ask me.
I mean you can't fault them since the Point and click genre can't really be evolved but still with all these games TellTale have done it's gotten really stale now. I'm honestly flabbergasted by the games such high scores most of the time.
omg is it nearly 20 years ago that I played this game on PC?
Cool game.
