Broken Sword Collection Coming To Evercade Feb 2025! Red Cart No.44!

[@chrismaddock5790]

I honestly wasn't expecting this one, but it's honestly nice to see Broken Sword getting some attention again

[@cyrollan]

Thanks for being extra honest!

[@chrismaddock5790]

@@cyrollan You're welcome XD

[@cyrollan]

Never played these, barely even knew about them. I loved point and click adventure games back in the day, so sign me up!!!

[@poozwonger]

Awesome fast upload mate! First day purchase for me. I only had the demo on Demo 1 and rinsed the crap out of it. Can't wait to play this in full. 😁

[@CrazyBurger]

@@poozwonger lol wow.. you never actually bought the full game originally?

[@poozwonger]

Nah, fraid not - my PS1 library was only added to on birthdays and Christmas. You play through both? But that's cool - why Evercade is awesome, get the chance to revisit these games I never had the chance to. Like TR 2&3 - just had the demos.

[@CrazyBurger]

Yeah, played through 1 and 2 a few times. Also played the various remakes and sequels. Love them. Gladly I was already working at this point in the 90s.. so all my money spent on computer games lol.

[@poozwonger]

Awesome! I must be a couple years behind you as was about 14/15 when these came out and paper round money wasn't that great. 😂 I might check out the PS2 version for this evening's entertainment.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@poozwonger lol yep just a couple of years. Ps2 version was radically different. I'm sure you actually controlled the character more rather than point n click.

[@GreekTheGeek1]

This is a must buy for me 🎉the second is my favourite so glad to see them everyone who has an ever ace should get these

[@DavidFalconer-np4bo]

I’m sure you called this one correctly on a wish list video a while back. 👍

[@CrazyBurger]

@@DavidFalconer-np4bo Yeah, back in May. Always seemed like a likely collection, since it's not under a massive unobtainable publisher.

[@djwrahfael]

I love the Broken Sword series. I'm gonna buy it for sure. Can't wait! 🙌🏻

[@bjornh1527]

I’ve got to hand it to you, you’re pretty good at guessing.

[@CrazyBurger]

Lol more thinking stuff that's sensible and possible. Bit of luck.

[@bigjohnchannel7378]

Si,e' vero,lo hai detto che usciva. Ma secondo me non è fortuna, semplicemente tu sei il fratello di evercade 😂😂😂❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉 Oggi ho anche scoperto vecchi tuoi video dell'inizio di evercade dove hai tutto ciò che voglio, dopo vengo a commentare 🎉🎉🎉

[@yabbabuuyabbabuu]

Broken Sword 2 is favourite game of mine. If you like old school point and click games and for some reason missed those then this is a must buy. I own it on GOG but will probably buy anyway as I like to replay it once every few years xD.

[@peterredwin4617]

Broken sword a couple of good solid games. Not everyone's bag but this cart is a must for me as I remember playing them.

[@Androsynth75]

Interesting. Good games, And a mostly untapped niche on Evercade too. This one’s a must buy for me.

[@KeenRetroGames]

The alternate music is much better than the official trailer, haha

[@CrazyBurger]

Lol its brutal. But appropriate. Ish. Can't play the Evercade music as quite often it's copyrighted.

[@KeenRetroGames]

I only finished the first game on GBA, even though I started it on different platforms three or four times over the years.

[@CrazyBurger]

I've played it too many times on so many platforms. The touch screen version was interesting. I need to play the recent reforged version as well.

[@gaz-a-reno8891]

This is already gonna be bought by me! What a fantastic surprise. But I guess this is expected from Blaze. I’m personally glad that they are giving us more P&C games! Hopefully we can get an actual mix collection of them too?! 🤔. I have played and completed the first of these games, which I remembered fondly. Even though, yes. Some maybe not be into this style of game. I definitely think this cart is going to be a WINNER! So far so good for Blaze. I think they are off to a good start. 🤔👍❤️

[@crashline]

Man I loved these. Shadow of the Templar was great!

[@ShinySilvery]

Never played them … even though I love Lucas Arts games in this style. Monkey Island. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade etc. So yes, Ima absolutely gonna get this cart !

[@njj1]

It's great to see and was excited... But then realise this will be £25 for two games. A different proposition at this price point

[@CrazyBurger]

@@njj1 Yes. That isn't the best part. I'll cover that in my next vid.

[@darrenchapman8917]

These was on my wish list quite a bit ago…..hoping we see Simon the sorcerer collection now………also they a new broken sword coming to ps5 soon.

[@cyrollan]

I'm glad other people know about Simon the Sorcerer! Back in the 90's, I felt like I was the only person who knew about it. (Of course there was little Internet back then.)

[@darrenchapman8917]

@ I had it on the Amiga cd32, such a fun game….fingers cross we see it now we getting more like it.

[@genejoke8538]

I'd love to see Simon the sorcerer on evercade, loved that game.

[@Nicadeemas]

Absolute must buy for me.

[@Trialwolf]

These are the Playstation ports however these games have been remastered in 2010 and the first game got a full remake last year. Right now you can get the two remasters on GOG for $16 CDN for the two. These are good games but they are easily available elsewhere and cheaper compared to getting this cartridge. I'm sure some would have preferred these as part of the blue label line as well rather than the console releases.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@Trialwolf PS1 versions are fine for me. Though definitely worth having a look at the value again.

[@obsoleteworlds]

I might be wrong but I think they are also on the PSN store for Vita/PS3 also.

[@allgood5140]

Meh, the price difference is negligible. Seems silly to complain at that little of a difference. For just one on switch is double the cost. Anyway I like that I can play this one on my vs and use the same cart on my portable.

[@СергейКоваленко-н5е]

🎉🎉🎉 it's amazing 🎉🎉🎉

[@willrobinson7599]

Thats a cartridge i didnt expect . Ill be adding this one to the collection .about time we found kut what snk stuff is coming , must be a metal slug cart

[@CrazyBurger]

@@willrobinson7599 Might be a few more months before we learn more about SNK.

[@bjornh1527]

Still, since the blog promises news ”early next year” I expect some more info within a month. No later than March at least.

[@MIKandJEAN]

Come back C64 cart to start the year, all is forgiven! See ya around March. 😂😂

[@CrazyBurger]

@@MIKandJEAN lol nooo...

[@waynetemplar2183]

Think I'll give this a go

[@jayme69]

Nice release but if you can't wait Broken Sword 2&3 are on sale for 99p on GOG with the OG at the normal price of £5 :-) At least analogue support should help with the Evercade release but mouse support would be most welcome.Keep up the awesome work!

[@CrazyBurger]

@@jayme69 Wow.. crazy cheap prices..

[@the_casualgam3r]

Wonder if it will work on the alpha

[@CrazyBurger]

@@the_casualgam3r Don't see why not?

[@resist4184]

Couldn’t think of a worse way to play it😂

[@the_casualgam3r]

@resist4184 not saying I would. Just nice to have options

[@p-chan3319]

When i see this, i just wish we get Discworld collection at some point. I hope we get more japanese games though.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@p-chan3319 I couldn't get into Discworld. I tried. Just didn't understand the logic with the puzzles.

[@cyrollan]

We eventually nldo need mouse and keyboard support. Or at least analog sticks. Duke Nukem 3D is nigh unplayable with the existing Evercade controller.

[@jayme69]

The Evercade VS/VS-R has analogue support on select games and I'm pretty sure these will be supported as well :-)

[@neilwalker8800]

Love it

[@pavelstepanek3490]

Will it be compatible with the super pocket?

[@CrazyBurger]

Yeah but issue could be trying to read the text!

[@allgood5140]

​@@CrazyBurgertruth. I can barely see Kain on Blood Omen.

[@Carlossus666]

Take my money

[@davidwatts8578]

Wonder if we will eventually get a mouse controller made available as games like these cry out for them

[@CrazyBurger]

@@davidwatts8578 these games didn't need a mouse. Designed for a Ps1 controller.

[@kenjara]

Yep these being the Playstation version are already made for controller. There is a button to accelerate the cursor as well so it controls well.

[@obsoleteworlds]

I've seen a lot of people going on about needing a mouse. You really don't. These games were designed to work without one. Not every point and click needs a mouse.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@obsoleteworlds Yep, crazy nonsense. Unnecessary. I've never played, nor needed a mouse for these games. Touch screen yes, on the phone version but never mouse.

[@CZpersi]

Definitely not expected. How does it play on the PSX without a mouse? Having finished the first C&C game on the PSX, I know that some games can be servicable even without a mouse, but point and click adventure? The last two attempts by Delphine Collection have not sold me to this idea. Also, the PSX versions will be low-resolution, which is really a shame for games that heavily rely on hand-drawn graphics. I personally feel torn about this collection.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@CZpersi The games don't need a mouse and were designed for a dpad. You definitely don't need a mouse. There was a PS1 mouse that you could use but you didn't need one. The Delphine games however where designed for use with a mouse. Not a dpad. Hence them being a bit tricky.

[@CZpersi]

@CrazyBurger I am definitely waiting with my purchase to your in-depth review.

[@SuperEarther]

this will be a great diversion and will bring more people on board!

[@darrenj3720]

Nice. I remember talking about these a few years ago. Maybe blaze read your comments?

[@CrazyBurger]

@@darrenj3720 lol ha doubtful. But also possible.

[@scorpio9962]

Sorry, this is not my cup of tea. Hopefully the next cart contains more interesting stuff.

[@Da4Ying3]

Can I play in languages... other than English? French, for example?

[@Da4Ying3]

I assume there won't be anything in French until Delphine collection 2. And I may be wrong.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@Da4Ying3 No. English only.

[@Da4Ying3]

I'm gonna be stuck watching Pauly Shore movies dubbed in French forever and ever, it seems.

[@Junier-Hussein]

Banging cart ❤

[@Mattmurdock2025]

No multilenguaje, no buy.

[@resist4184]

Meh it’s a good series , but given it’s been available on mobile phones for close to a decade ! I don’t see it making much sense on the Evercade platform. Something more obscure point and click wise would have been more interesting …

[@CrazyBurger]

I get it, I'm glad to see it though. Classics that deserve a place on Evercade

[@javierctl422]

No spanish?😣🫤

[@CrazyBurger]

@@javierctl422 I've no idea if there was a Spanish version?

[@javierctl422]

@@CrazyBurger Yes, we had a version with dubbing and subtitles in Spanish, Blaze should somehow at least include Spanish subtitles (and if not, also German and French).

[@CrazyBurger]

@@javierctl422 You sure it was PS1 version? I think subequent versions like GBA had the choice of languages.

[@javierctl422]

@@CrazyBurger Yes, very sure. There were 5 editions of the games on PS1 throughout Europe, in Spain it was subtitled and even dubbed.

[@ohdear2001]

Yeah.....these were never that good. Stop kidding yourselves.

[@CrazyBurger]

Totally disagree

[@m.j3113]

Yeah,still no mouse support, still dissapointing. I don't need to play these PS ports on Evercade, to be honest. And 25 or 30 Euros? Nope, I don't see the point. I have them on PC, NDS etc etc.

[@CrazyBurger]

@@m.j3113 don't need mouse support for these.
