This timeline describes events mentioned in the early games, Mean Streets and Martian Memorandum and carried through up to Pandora Directive. Elements of this timeline did make it into Tesla Effect, but It's relationship to the entire series is not clear or stable in comparison with the later games designed by Aaron Conners.
The Poisoned Pawn was the next retail game and was going retell Overseer again, incorporating elements from both Overseer and Mean Streets version of events, explaining the relevance of why Tex Murphy's memories do not match up, and other details he has forgotten of the real 'true events', see Timeline (TPP). However the game was indefinitely shelved.
