The BS4 official website has opened it's doors only showing a teaser movie (it doesn't tell very much about the game, just a few teaser lines...)

What do you think about it? Let's especulate about BS4 plot!

And also, there's a little goodie hidden on the site...

Im really looking forward to this game, I hope they learn from the mistakes they made in BS3...

I thought BS3 was great, but a bit too much box puzzles.

Yeah, and the Splinter Cell-like parts sucked a bit too.

One of the new things they did put in BS3 that I liked were the timed sequences where you had to press a button, similar to Dragon's Lair.

Hey I thought Stobbart was spelt with "Two B's and two T's" but clearly theres one t. Now I've seen everything. Also this game says it will conclude the series but I thought 3 was supposed to. I can't really speculate on these games though because I still haven't gotten around to Broken Sword III however I did complete II a few months ago. Maybe I'll pick it up for christmas.

The Broken Sword series are awesome! Especially 1 & 3, although I'd have to agree with Angelus:way too many annoying, repetitive box puzzles. Yet the great story/characters easily made up for those.

As far as BS 1 and 2 are concerned, they're kind of oldish... you should be able to get them on ebay. Broken Sword 1 is even supported by ScummVM, so you won't even need dosbox! Anyway, I really recommend getting these games, I still consider them to be some of the best adventure games out there.

Speculating about a BS4 plot ? I read an interview recently with one of the designers, and I think he said something about George falling in love with a stranger. I guess this means no Nico then ?

Hey AMG, you can get those new re-releases of BS 1 and 2 (in a pack):
http://www.play.com/play247.asp?source= ... tle=857257

They are on DVD and run under Windows XP

And to Dennis... yes, there will be Nico, I personally think that this new girl will bring George some serious problems and Nico is going to save his adventurous butt.
