haha, cheers, a movie about broken sword would be brilliant,... if it dose happen, hopefully they get rolf saxon , (the original george stobbart) to play the part, and its good to hear that they have'nt officially stopped making the series, tnx for the info :)
what? theres another broken sword!? how are fans aloud to make a game from a series? isnt that against the law or something? and secondly ive been waiting for number 5 since the last one in what , 2006? it dosent look like the makers are going to make anymore, where can i get this game? is it for sale, or downloadable?
@georgestobbart1 It's a free, fan-made game. I sure if you search Google you'll find where to download it from. The developers of this game got plenty of permission from Revolution to make this, as long as they didn't directly steal images or other material. All of what you see is either altered from previous games, or completely their own work, even the music. Besides I don't think Revolution would care unless these guys intended to sell it instead of offering it for free. They should be proud.
@Kruspe12 , tnx ,I downloaded it with the english voices installed, i cant believe im playing another broken sword game haha, and better still its in the original 2d point and click, even the new voice acting is a good resemblance to the origional games, but dose anyone know why Revolution stopped making the series?and is this fan-made game a once off? i would love if the game was kept alive. tnx
@georgestobbart1 Rumour has it that there is supposed to be a Broken Sword movie in the works.Charles Cecil has said in interviews that he wants to take great time and care with the script for it as it's such a rich story. No word on when the movie will begin being developed. I don't think they've stopped making the series, it's just on hiatus. As far as i know, Broken Sword 2.5 was a one-off, but there may be more in the future from other fans. You never know.
@50CENT123GO yeah ive been playing it :) and i got the English patch too its very well directed i just wish the English actor had added alittle more emotion for George but at least i can understand him now :)
Reading all the comments knocking this I wonder if people feel they could do better??! Bearing in mind its created by Fans and FREE then I think its great.
Dont get me wrong, its 20 out of 10 for effort, animation and the celebration of 2D point and click gaming but minus 20 out of 10 for the story. You are supposed to drip drip information about the storyline over the entire game not just some dialogue in an airplane toilet at the end of the game. It feels like an essay you write the night before you hand it in, rushed and of poor quality.
for a fan game this is absolutely amazing how can people knock 1st of all its free and 2nd of all this is a fan game dont knock it because of its story
they were limited on what they could do with the story because its set between bs1 and bs2.for example,you couldnt write a story part and make it look like nico is going to die because she is alive and well in bs2.
whats peoples view on this game? i thought it was good, not great, but certainly exceeded my expectations. the story was a bit shallow and seemed to end just as it was kicking off, it certainly dosent compare to the official games, but maybe it will be better when the english voices version becomes available.
This has been flagged as spam show
Does this take place after the 2nd game and before the 3rd? please respond..
