What a bargin Broken Sword: The Sleepin Dragon

I saw Broken Sword 3 up town in a very famous shop for only £3. I hadn't play a Broken Sword game for many years but remember how fantastic the story, puzzles and mystery's were. I was worried that the I'd hate the use of 3D graphics over the older 2D cartoon animation style graphics the first two games in the series had but no it's still wonderful. My only moan is why did they change the controls? Using the mouse was a lot better it now feels like it was created for a game console instead of a PC. Apart from the change in the control method it seems really good so far.

You on about Hanley? If so, is that the shop in the Potteries Centre, or the one down by McDonalds?

It was neither. This store you'll almost find in every town but the one I went is at Market Street Longton.

would that be the one you'd associate with sheep? (i can't be more vague than that)

That's good to know, we have one of those in Stoke too. I'll pop in on Monday and see if they have one in stock.

Well it was released on PC and Xbox simultaneously so that explains the control changes. The 4th game is PC only so it keeps the 3d visuals but the controls are much more like the older games.
