As one of my favourite games, I can't see why the whole world has went The Dig crazy.

It has one of the greatest story lines which is taken at such an angle that when the twists come for you, you genuinely feel shocked or amazed. The characters were brilliant and the voice acting was great. I got myself both soundtracks and I have to say they're some of the best soundtracks I've ever heard and add to the gaming experience considerably.

I'm not going to spoil anything but I didn't expect a lot of things to happen which did. I suggest getting the game and not even reading anything about it before playing it. If I hadn't played the demo ten years ago I probably would have been even more blown away when playing it.

The voice acting is brilliant and the choice of voice actors was brilliant. Robert Patrick (T-1000 from The Terminator 2) was perfect as Boston and the other actors also gave great performances, I can't imagine anyone else voicing these characters. And I don't want to. The way the game was created was perfect and it was unfortunate that it went through so many development changes and bugged Lucasarts so much.

If you like a good adventure game, I suggest you go for this. As a big point and click fan, I say this is one of the best you can get along with Beneath a Steel Sky for the Amiga. I'll be playing this same time next year, and so on.
