Gray Matter will be the first new title by the famous adventure author since the release of Gabriel Knight 3. Staying true to the Jensen-style, the story interweaves gruesome incidences and supernatural events.
Quote: | Neurobiologist Dr. David Styles is one of the main characters in the game. Ever since losing his wife in a terrible car accident many years ago, he has become a recluse, leaving his English mansion Dread Hill House only on rare occasions.
One day student and street artist Samantha Everett shows up on his door step unexpectedly, at a time Styles just happens to be looking for a new assistant. Sam gets the job. Originally from America, she has been travelling Europe for the last few years, so she could really use the money. Her first assignment involves finding six volunteers for an experiment planned by Dr. Styles at Oxford University.
The experiment begins harmless enough, but soon strange things start happening. Styles is visited by his beloved, but deceased wife. Now it is up to Sam to solve the mysteries of Dread Hill House.
In Gray Matter, the player takes control of Dr. David Styles as well as Samantha Everett as they are trying to unveil secrets and find the truth.

Me too!
I was absolutely stunned when I found out Jane had a new game on the cards, some of my fondest memories are of playing Gabriel Knight 1.
The story-telling and the research behind it was first class.

Gabriel Knight...what ta days..pentium cpu with 133mhz (1 core btw )...was hard game lupas lupas you will be a wolf:)
i remember in one of the games you have to use recorder to create the right sentece from voice mail or something like that and to use it as password to get into somewhere..was pretty smart and unique game back this days with the atmospher and that kind of ridles.
there were many quests , but this one was special in many aspects.

Had been following this for awhile when it was first announced but had forgetting about it. Great to see that its a reality now and dated. Sins of the fathers is one of the greatest adventure games ever created

Also this is slated for release on xbox 360 correct? Bastard to play a point click adventure with a controller though. But atleast its greater exposure for the genre

Apparently an English version of Gray Matter comes out in Germany this Friday (11/12/10)!!! And the English version just leaked for XBOX360, I can't believe we're finally seeing a new Jane Jensen game!!!

Wasn't it postponed till the early months of 2011? I believe February as a scheduled month?
And is the version coming out on Friday in Germany really English? I find that hard to believe since a great majority of quest/point'n'click games always comes first in German-speaking regions and some great deal of months later is released for the rest of the world.

I used Babelfish to translate the official Gray Matter press release: http://forum.dtp-entertainment.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=16888
"In both editions available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland Gray of matte as special Schmankerl both in German and in English language to be located contained. So Adventure fans have the possibility of playing also the English original version with the Jane Jensen personally clay/tone direction led."
So it seems the game ships this week in Germany with English. This would also make sense considering the XBOX 360 (PAL) version that leaked is in English. Plus since Jane is American the game was probably originally made in English --- honestly I don't have a clue why the hell this game isn't launching in the USA.

This is the Duke Nukem Forever of point'n'click games. It's been in the works since 2003. And it was announced way before that. This better be good now!
