I really hated GK3's engine. The game was (in many respects) brilliant like the other Gabriel Knight games, but it was a severe downgrade in playability from either of the previous games, and looked worse to boot. Ugh.

And speaking of the Tex Murphy series, Under A Killing Moon was one of my favorite games, but as an early 3D game I'm a bit wary of replaying it now since they tend to age terribly. I'd kill for a remake or modern sequel to it, though. Rubbish or not, for that price I’m definitely giving both games a go.
