This Wednesday, September 10, IGN.com will feature an interview with Chris Jones and Aaron Conners about Three Cards to Midnight. The interview is also slated to feature the FIRST SCREENSHOTS from the game! A direct link to the article will be posted here on Wednesday when the interview is live.

So there.....

Lookin' forward to it!

Super, but I think, that first screen shot had been released this week
I hope, that there are no big complication and the release date of the game will be +/- kept.

Is there a set time for the Interview and will we be able to listen in???

I haven't posted anything about this game to other message boards yet because there hasn't been enough info. to "hook" them yet. The IGN article will be the time. IGN is huge.

IGN is normally text, right? Unless I've missed something.

Yeah, I think so. Can't remember which one of them have interviews you can download though. Maybe that's Gamespot?

Interview is live. They gave it a decent spot on the PC channel, hopefully it gets some attention for the game.

I'm glad I was able to get them on board with this. PC channel is not my normal beat, and IGN does seem to ignore games like this sometimes (though they are more interested now than in the past). I think I can make sure we get one more article on the game before it releases though, which I'll probably do when the demo hits.

Just want to go on the record and say (and I hope I'm not the only one) that the screenshots look AWESOME. I'm not sure what my expectations were (aside from, obviously, general greatness ), but they have BY FAR been exceeded by these first glimpses...

Screeeeeeeenies!

Same here James. I don't know if my expectations were low but they blew me out of the water. Those screens look hot as hell, and the puzzles have such a familiar feel to them so far.

I was already excited before, now I need a cold shower!

Thanks for the interview and the screens!

Outstanding job, Frog!

That was such a good interview, and great responses. Coupled with actual screenies ... I really couldn't be more excited for this!

It's cool that Chris talks a bit about what TruGolf is up to. I had wanted to ask him during the Alternative Reel interview, but I wasn't bold enough to ask another question before I hung up.

Ditto.

I'm surprised that people are surprised.

I think the only thing that will shock me is if the game doesn't blow me away in terms of getting a great story across. I'm glad they're playing their cards close to the vest on this one. Without revealing much except product. When we get the demo we'll all know how it plays.

I don't expect guys who have been in the industry for ages, that have a firm understanding of things and used to push the envelope to do anything but deliver. These guys have been repressed by a system for years. I expect this game to be great and a sign of things to come.

There was never a doubt in my mind as far as story, music and voice acting was concerned. I guess the way it was revealed to us, the connotations that came with a small budget and an independent team led me, I suppose, to somewhat expect less from the visual point of view. Truth be told, I would've played the game on a dark background if it were it, but I certainly didn't expect the screenies to look this good.
