They trash Gabriel Knight III, but I would go back farther and trash Gabriel Knight II and other games of that era. That was when it first became technically possible to have a significant amount of multimedia in a game, so it did things like make you watch your avatar walk excruciatingly slowly from the car to the edge of the screen everytime you wanted to go anywhere, and you had to listen to a bunch of interminable bad acting.

I wouldn't know about Gabriel Knight III because I didn't bother to play it, or other Sierra games, after getting burnt by their earlier CD-ROM era games.
