SSH · Fri 20/04/2007 09:47:17

Yes, definitely BS

Eigen · Fri 20/04/2007 09:50:23

Yes. I prefer black coffee.

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 20/04/2007 09:52:48

BS is, for me, BS.

Still, it is the one adventure game series that managed to put the "adventure" back in "adventure", especially BS3. BS3 felt like an adventure/action flick.

Might aswell ask whilst we're here.

Anyone managed to get the cut scenes to work for bs1 when using dosbox?

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 20/04/2007 10:50:32

Chicky - use ScummVM. There's even a section on it for the cutscenes.

Yeah it's a great game all right. The console like GUI is cool too. There's some action sequences but they are really short and easy so it doesn't ruin the game, it being an adventure game, just improves it.

What's with the n00b style talk though?
Please write in a more adult manner.
No "!!!!!!!!!", no caps, grammer, complete sentences.. not too much to ask.

I've never ever heard of this game. Screenshots anywhere?

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 20/04/2007 12:08:46

What, have you been living under a rock for the past 6/7 years?

You wanna roll with us you better start knowing your adventure games, RedPress.

Also I'm sure google will be more than willing to help you out with those screenshots.

Moresco · Fri 20/04/2007 12:31:13

LOLz. No, I don't think that game must've been very popular in the US, cuz I haven't been living under any rocks.

And who said I wanted to roll with you exactly? I know the adventure games I like, and that's good enough for me. And I found out why I never heard of it. It's called Circle Of Blood in North America.

Inkoddi · Fri 20/04/2007 12:37:02

Well, Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars was called Circle of Blood in the US of A, so you might know it by that name, mr. Press.

I should probably play it through some time... ._.

Moresco · Fri 20/04/2007 12:45:44

Yup. I've never played it, though the screenshots look pretty nifty. I found some kind of official website for the more recent game, but I noticed the flag choices didn't have a UsA one. No big deal, I will check it out.

HillBilly · Fri 20/04/2007 13:48:31

God I'm never being ironic on the internet again.

Sorry, i meant ScummVM. What do you mean there's a section for cutscenes?

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 20/04/2007 14:11:02

"Extras, game downloads"

"Broken Sword Cutscene Pack"

Chicky · Fri 20/04/2007 14:15:55

Excellent, thank you very much!

I have both BS1 and 2 for the PS1, i also have 'sold out' copies (cheap re-releases) of them on pc but i couldn't find my BS1 pc disk anywhere.

Broken Sword is easily the best game series and BS1 being one of the top adventure games of all time (imo)!

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 20/04/2007 14:16:46

You'll still need your BS1 pc disk to play it. I don't think ScummVM hosts the entire game, just the cutscenes.

Chicky · Fri 20/04/2007 14:23:11

Yeah, i know that. I've already got a 'backup' copy of both cd's on my computer.

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 20/04/2007 14:25:29

Smart guy.
