Well, I just finished playing Morpheus and I'm pleased to say it was worth the wait. I so hoped it would live up to the hype and to my expectations of what a good adventure game should be -challenging, immersive, addicting, utterly believable.

Once the messenger app is installed, Morpheus launches it immediately.Ever since I first saw the pre-release promotional materials for Morpheus at E3 this year, I've wanted to get my hands on this game.
