My first post here, I just discovered the site - I really like it! Good work!
Now on to something I just have to say...
I must admit, when I first heard that EMI would use the GRIME engine I was really disappointed. I was one of the people that argued that the graphics quality could never match that of the old, reliable and well-proven 2D formula.
However...
I just now watched the .mpg movies over at dailyradar - and they look amazing! I think Lucasarts may have actually succeeded in bringing this adventure game to 3D (if that much can be concluded from three low-res movies...

So, I've changed my mind. I now completely support the decision to go 3D, and i just can't wait for the game!!
