Anyone else check out Syberia?
This game looks to be astounding in every way.

Icky, icky, ICKY flash page!
So I thought I'd save everyone else the aggravation and put up a direct link where you can download the demo here.

Projected shipping date = 9-9-02
I completed the demo and am eager to see what kind of price the game is going to open with.

Great game, but The Longest Journey is better.
I posted this on the other Syberia thread, but figured I'd stick it here too.
---
I just finished the full version of Syberia last Friday and it is excellent. However, I did enjoy The Longest Journey more overall.
Syberia has a pretty decent story and there will be a sequel, which will help tie up a LOT of loose ends. I just hope it's a little longer (Syberia was maybe 15 hours or so, tops) and that there is less backtracking.
However, even with these minor blips, I thoroughly enjoyed it and had my adventure game fix for the year...
Ah, the joys of living in Canada. You get the one decent adventure game released a few months earlier than the states
Oh, and avoid The Watchmaker at all costs. Horrid game.

If you're looking for a good adventure game...
I'd also recommend Shadow Of Destiny either on the PS2 or the recent PC port. I played it to death on the PS2 (goooo multiple endings!) and it is an excellent time-travel/metaphysical adventure.
Voice acting could be better, but it's passable. I'm not sure how well the PC port had turned out, but I probably enjoyed it more than Syberia. I guess I'm just bitter with Syberia for leaving me hanging and needing the sequel! So many loose ends... must wait for sequel!
