Both
Splinter Cell 4 and Broken Sword
4 now have names — their creators must be so proud. THQ have announced that the latest instalment in the adventure
game series Broken Sword will be called "The Angel of Death", and have also revealed some hyperbolic
tidbits about its plot:
The greatest bastion of true adventure gaming, Broken Sword: The Angel Of Death sees unwitting hero
George Stobbart fall in love with the mysterious and beautiful Anna Maria. Her untimely and mysterious disappearance
draws him into a desperate race against time to find an ancient artifact capable of immense destruction. The only lead
George has is an antiquated manuscript rumoured to have inexplicable links to mfkzt, a mythical substance that has been
forgotten for over two thousand years. Unfortunately for George, it looks like the world needs saving one more
time.
Sounds suspiciously like the plot of previous Broken Sword games, but the adventure and mystery style
certainly provides a breather from carbon-copy FPSs and sports titles.
