Should still look nice on my 1444p monitor, Glad I backed this project!

I’ve missed those old Tex Murphy games… so I pledged for the boxed collector’s edition.

As far as the 2K resolution is concerned, I’m guessing that they’re shooting scenes at DCI 2K CinemaScope resolution (2048 x 858); That is the 2.39:1 very-wide screen aspect ratio used for some movies, which will appear letterboxed. It’s still possible, though unlikely, that it’s true DCI2K format (2048x1080), which would be a first.

But 1080p is the 2K standard for television and computer monitors (and yes it's not really full 2K, just like 4K TVs (and monitors) are running 3840x2160, i.e. not really "4K").

This really, irrationally annoys me. I've come to grudgingly accept that 4K is going to refer to 3840, annoying as it's both not 4K and a switch from the referring to the vertical resolution. Now there's 2K, which doesn't fit the existing broken naming system. 2K is 1080p, if you're going to mislabel things, like 4K, at least mislabel them consistently.

I can understand a reluctance to sell a TV as 2160p. That just doesn't roll off the tongue very well and is harder for people who aren't particularly experienced to remember. I suppose just referring to it as "Ultra High Definition" is a bit vague and if I didn't know better I would be very cynical about the fancy buzzwords. Also UHD can refer to 8K too, although I doubt that's a big cause of confusion at your local electrics retailer.

3840x2160 has 4 times as many pixels as Full HD (i.e. 1080p) so how about Quad-Def?

Wow. A KS that delivers MORE than was promised? A game the size of the Pandora Directive is quite a meaty adventure game indeed. Way to show those OTHER adventure games how it's done

It sounds like it's at least four times the size of some other recent KS game that ran out of funds and has only one part released...Nice job Big Finish!

Or as he's known by the Mexicans...Tejas Murphy.

And no shitty 8 bit graphics or stupid platforms, either!

I never really got into the TM games, but I'm glad it made it through KS, and I'm surprised how good this looks (specifically the integration of the live action and CGI backgrounds).

I'm assuming this might make it to steam? I'll probably grab it once it's out...

OMG! What will I do with that extra 128 lines of resolution in crappy FMVs!?!?
