Fantastic review mate, really cool! Nice flow and delivery :)

[@madbassist85]

Loved the video dude. I personally enjoyed the re release with the extras :-) Still takes me back to when i use 2 play BS1 and BS2 when i came home from school. Nostalgia :-)

[@Anevlo]

I really love the game and the whole franchise. Surprisingly I started with BS3 which was 3D, but the story and the inclusion of the Templars, Voynich Manuscript and the ley lines was really immersive and made me research all of that! If ther is anyone who hasn't played Broken Sword games I really recommend all of them!

[@keithparker1346]

I've played all 5 official releases and liked all to different degrees...though 4 was weak

[@nodansland303]

I owned the GBA version and then the Wii version back in day. I still recall completing it.

[@tomsheppard378]

I loved this game when it first came out. I was only 10 and took me about a year to complete. I think its a shame they took out the deaths and i played in French and it sounded like some of the lines were phoned it, the sound change was quiet jarring

[@garyedwards2243]

Ah, I wondered you the narrator for the broken sword trailer was! I saw it on a demo disc (I think) and it blew my tiny mind! Felt like a trailer for a noir detective action movie 🍿

18:11 showing people in their national dress, or doing activities their countries are well known for are stereotypes now?

Original Original Original

Love Broken Sword from when i was a kid. Especially the first 2 chapters, the drawnings are AMAZING. Also, for those who are playing th first 2 chapters, you can listen to some music from Nico room stereo (probably in the first game?).

[@milesp1794]

If I were a bigger fan of adventure games, I would play the shit out of it. It looks like a cool synthesis of a whole bunch of influences.

[@BrentonBold]

Awesome video, exactly what I was looking for. Even though I own this game for the wii, I actually started playing this game when I started getting into gba emulation. I'm probably going to check out the ps1 version.

[@keithparker1346]

If you can get the original pc version.iirc on the playstation the game becomes very annoying with loading pauses

[@jameswalt1]

Fantastic video! Thank you!

[@Elkott]

I first played this game thanks to a PS1 demo disc, it captivated me and started my love affair for point and click adventure games although my selection was quite limited having only a PS1 I did get to play classics like of course Broken Sword 2, the Discworld games and X-Files plus many more and I did eventually get a 486, Windows 95 PC where I got to indulge in so many more games

[@jmatt781]

Checking this out due to the upcoming Evercade release!

[@no_no_just_no]

i'm sure you know but there's a remake coming out, it'll be interesting to see what they do with the animation this time.

[@InfoGuyGaming]

I have, it looks promising so far. Will see how it turns out.

[@anrkist]

You predicted the BS1 remake that was just announced!

[@InfoGuyGaming]

Will be interesting to see what they do with a remake.

[@sumoshi5752]

Well made vid 👍

[@phalanx9089]

You deceived me! I read Templar and thought this was dragon age too... now I have to stand here and watch a very well presented review of a game I don`t care about. skipped the spoiler review though. I think I`ll check it out. Is the rest of the series any good? 5:18 that freaking clown is my sleep paralysis demon

[@InfoGuyGaming]

The second game is ok from what I remember, though the series starts to go down hill from the third game. There's like 5 game in the series I think.

[@phalanx9089]

@@InfoGuyGaming I will keep that in mind if I make it all the way there.

[@FallenGemini]

It is funny that you said that you wanted a remake of Broken Sword is closer to the 2D art style of Broken Sword as that is what we are getting thanks to AI generated art to help with the in-between animations.

[@keithparker1346]

Ive started to play the Directors Cut of Broken Sword....kind of liking it. Hints system is pretty good, the Nicole start is different, not really certain about the sliding lock puzzles though

[@neosildrake]

I actually bought a Walkthrough booklet just for the goat puzzle, after being stuck for days on it. Remake is supposed to come out by the end of the year (2024). I also hope they'll port Beneath a Steel Sky to console.

[@InfoGuyGaming]

Yeah interested to see how the remake turns out.

[@Calculon1712]

Do you think youll review the Reforged version thats just come out. I really like it its way better than the Directors Cut

[@InfoGuyGaming]

I might eventually, just got a lot of games to get through first lol

[@ShrekFhiyona]

​@@InfoGuyGaming do you have any C.R.T. filters

[@InfoGuyGaming]

@@ShrekFhiyona Nope

@@InfoGuyGaming The Video Games 1980s, 1990s and 2000s looks better on C.R.T. monitors. The reason is because they were made with C.R.T. monitors in mind

[@nickbuxton8406]

Classic!

[@24hrAhmed]

The review decent, drop the cut aways boring and derivative This will allow you to SLOW DOWN. You’re uncomfortable to listen to. It feels like you are racing to the next opportunity to be “funny” rather than trusting your content- which would be good if you SLOWED DOWN

[@deepcovergecko]

Big fan of the original. Tried out the remake and hated it, didn't even bother to finish it.

[@GoldenGateNum9]

Directors cut indeed, utter idiots butchered this masterpiece on Wii, missing scenes and cut out all the urhm.. "Blood" "Death" and "Murder" 😂 if you never played this b4 whatever you do play the originals please! Gaming 4eva 🕹♥️🎮 P.S Also get acquainted with the fan made Broken Sword 2.5 👌

[@junkhero9113]

Reforged

[@MegaMar14]

I played this on GBA first

[@ryanmagee2623]

Why are you just quickly racing through a script? I'm so tired of people doing this

[@Blind_Haze]

The original Broken Sword is the perfect video game!!! 11 out of 10
