Here's your first look at The Last Window photo

The Last Window was revealed a few weeks ago as the sequel to DS classic Hotel Dusk: Room 215. With the latest Famitsu spilling its game liquids all over our faces, we've gotten our first look at this follow-up game, which purists are going to love. After all, it looks exactly the same as the last game. 

This is surely no bad thing, as the first game was a cool adventure and the art style was incredibly bold. It seems that The Last Window will continue the tradition of looking like an A-Ha music video as Kyle Hyde talks to creepy people in a bid to solve his latest mystery. 

Should be awesome.

I love Hotel Dusk. It was real mature storywriting that didn't decide 'hey, we need a ghost popping up here' or something equally bizarre in the final act. I like how Cing told a straight forward noir tale about regretful decisions. Why nobody ever brings up how amazing the writing is in this game is beyond me.

Yes, I'm completely biased towards Hotel Dusk! I had no idea they were making a sequel. First day buy and all that!

Mr. Sterling:

1)Yes
2)Yes
3) Don't cry- you rabble your opinion on here daily, have some of mine. It, like many games for the DS, are tripe. That's my opinion. Cheaply made, cheaply presented.

Sorry, sport, actually having a couple of decades over you allows me to recall what decent games were like. You should appreciate that given your attitude towards many games/features. I don't expect you to understand, or admit to understanding an opinion- you have 'ego' to protect.

So go on, Mr. Sterling, tear it up.

You clearly have no idea what "shovelware" means if you think Hotel Dusk qualifies it. And if you think many games for the DS are tripe, you don't know what good games are. Go troll somewhere else.

Son, I only ask because you seem confused as to what shovelware is. Shovelware are games made in vast quantities on the cheap due to budget and money restrictions. Hotel Dusk's art style is a stylistic decision, not a monetary one, and considering this sequel is coming over two years after the last one, you can't say it was rushed out to cash in on something.

You might think the game is shit, and that's fine. Whatever. But don't call it shovelware, because it is not. Try not to just throw words around because they sound good to you.

"Cheaply made, cheaply presented."
Ahaha. No. I don't believe you have actually played Hotel Dusk.

Also, shovelware doesn't mean what you think it means.

"Sorry, sport, actually having a couple of decades over you allows me to recall what decent games were like."

Shit guys, he's older than us. I guess that means he's right!

Yep, yet he comes across as several decades younger. Practically fetal, actually.

I was hooked on Hotel Dusk from beginning to end. The promise of a sequel, which will hopefully come to America, has brightened my day.

But Jim, you may be The Perfect Lifeform, but this guy with the newb avatar is OLDER than you! Surely this means he is correct about all things?

The Laws of Trolling dictate that if the troll-er is older that the subject of said trolling then it is accepted as a logical basis and the arguement is in the favor of the troll. And now you know!

Is it wrong to consider myself a huge fan of Hotel Dusk if I've never finished it?

Gotta get on that. Cause, I'm excited for this. Hell yes.

I love that point-and-click adventures still happen and that DS helps keep a tradition going in that regard. Games like Hotel Dusk and Phoenix Wright have proven there's still life and, even better, great art that can still come from this genre of gaming and remain relevant.

Also, its always when someone older than you doesn't know what a word means.

Ubi Soft makes shovelware for DS, though to be fair, Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes actually appears to be good. I'm only letting it slide because the Critter Crunch guys did it.

But all that Imagine crap Ubi Soft puts out, the stuff that even the kiddies don't want? THAT is shovelware, my friends.

I was hoping they'd stick with that look, though I wonder why I ever thought they wouldn't. I'm sold.

@Misterjojo

Is more than clear that you don't nothing about the concept of shovelware and nothing about the Ds

@Jim
I always liked your articles but today you gained all my respect, great job in defending Hotel dusk.

I loved Hotel Dusk. Mostly in inappropriate ways. I reckon it was an excellent piece of interactive storytelling and I couldn't put it down. I heartily approve of this message.

Hotel Dusk was incredible. I was absolutely hooked, and if Nintendo decides not to bring this to America, I will consider learning Japanese.

woohooo.. awesome news, i think adventure games revival is on DS rather than PC, and most of them developed by japanese, come on US and A developers! create MOAR adventure games on DS, i love this kind of genre.
