Clearly the PC version on the first due to aspect ratio. I really like the look of metronome though.
 
Not only does Diabolique look quite ugly, the concept sounds downright boring. Pass.

The City of Metronome is more interesting and has potential, but I'm not convinced it will actually be good. Art is simply beautiful, but using sound as a primary gameplay mechanism is sketchy at best. I'm really curious how they'll make that enjoyable.
Heres hope one of the console makers (Sony or Microsoft) pick it up so it can actually fulfill its potential.

Last I heard, Metronome did have a publisher, when did this change?
I've never heard it had one.

Metronome appears to use the reality engine just incase you wanted to know, http://www.artificialstudios.com/media.php (scroll down).
The developers of the Reality Engine used to post there. I remember that I bad mouthed their technology and their artwork, once... It's was a nice thread. :LOL:

Epic Games bought the Reality Engine, so the RE developement has ceased. The Devhouses using the RE have the choice to either continue to develop the game with the engine as is, or buy, for a non negligible, price a license for the UE3.0. The thing is, I'm virtually certain that there's no console version of the Engine, so either the developer port the engine on their own, if they're allowed to, or they get the publisher, they still don't have to pay for the UE3.0 license fees.

In the case of the City of Metronome, since the developers still haven't found a publisher. The game is still being developed for the PC only, so far.
The art of the game looks great, sad if they can find a publisher (And since the game does not involve any guns or cars, they have a battle uphill in front of them).

Diabolique, on the other hand looks as generic as it can be.
But this one might find a publisher...
 
I personally think Diabolique for the Xbox 360 looks great. Can't wait to see a video of it.

Disclaimer: Just for Hardknock I'm being honestly positive about a Xbox 360 game, so please notice.
