I seem to recall The Shivah as having partial or full commentary. That's the only one I can think of right now.

I don't know if this fits, but how about Al Emmo and the Lost Dutchman Mine? There is commentary throughout this game - very funny in spots too.
It's not the years honey, it's the mileage!

Jolly Rover has director's commentary but I think you can only switch it on after finishing it once.
I'll be back, one day, when I feel like it.

Thanks for the reminder, Ascovel! Case 7 (Cardinal Sins) is a good game and I see that #8 is on the way! I'm glad Francisco Gonzalez is still hard at it creating his games because I've been waiting for this one, seems like forever. Yeah, yeah, I know, life gets in the way. <g>

Oh I had forgotten about those. Have to keep any eye open for #8.

Now I remember also some of Yahtzee's games have freeware special editions with commentaries - the so called Chzo Mythos series: http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/games.htm...and I see that #8 is on the way! I'm glad Francisco Gonzalez is still hard at it creating his games because I've been waiting for this one, seems like forever. Yeah, yeah, I know, life gets in the way. Or maybe this last installment is so much more advanced and polished than the previous ones.

Truthfully, the graphics don't look any better in the trailer for the next/last Ben Jordan game but I've enjoyed them all and I expect to enjoy #8. Well, there was that bit with the sea creature in one of the games that I just wasn't fast enough to do, but other than that, no complaints and lots of kudos to Francisco Gonzalez. Gil.

Well, she certainly does make comments but they're more about Gabriel than the game. <g>

That is a good one. Thanks Becky!
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

The redux version of Bad Mojo had an extra disc with all sorts of wonderful things about making the game, and there were directors comments on some of the video scenes on that disc.
