Truly fantastic.  That's an excellent style of artwork -- the ole' minimal-palette mouse-driven pixelly artstyle.  Always makes me warm and fuzzy inside  .  Usually people don't go through the trouble of using it with such high resolution though!!  That's great.

each game in the series is great... the first two are less "sophisticated" than the later ones, but they have a certain charm to them and nice touches of Americana (like that Charlie Feathers song and coffee shop in Case 2).

I've just begun Case 5, so luckily I'm not _quite_ at the point where I'm wiggin' out about having a new Ben Jordan to play, but I'm still intrigued by these screenshots... artwork really does seem to be getting better and better!

The voice acting was fun in BJ1 Deluxe too so that'll be nice... I did feel like speaking _every_ observation (i.e. when you look at something) wasn't entirely necessary -- it could have been restricted to dialogue -- but oh well, I guess that's sort of standard with talkies.

This is excellent news.  I'm looking forward to major AGS games getting those little quality control touches here and there... Bruckman will benefit greatly from the changes!

Running everything with Wine in Linux is starting to drive me nuts, so this coincides nicely with my decision to finally buy Vista.  I've been interested in the XNA tools for awhile, and this'll make quite a nice addition .
