I was going to say he reminded me of "Stelios Kontos" from AMERICAN DAD, but those will work too.

Steam did do this cheaper, but I guess it's a good deal if you missed out. One thing to consider, bigger fans of the series may want to note that Broken Sword 2 comes with the director's cut/remastered version which is currently not on Steam. Plus, it's DRM-free if you don't like steam.

It's like a dollar more on GoG if you got the first one free during the 6 million download promo.

Regardless, I avoid buying old games on Steam after getting burned on Gothic II and Freedom Force. Sometimes they can be a serious headache to get working in 64 bit Windows 7, when 99% of GoG games work flawlessly right after installing.

Buy the games to legally get the data files.

But they run better in ScummVM than whatever native executable was packaged with them from GoG or Steam.

@JoystiqQ GoG has the Director's Cut versions of 1 and 2, so I'd be very surprised if they ran worse.

Steam has the Director's Cut version of 1, but 2 is actually run via ScummVM. Originally, it included an old version (that wouldn't play the video files), but they upgraded to a more recent edition at some point.

The Fourth Game was pretty good, it's just an absolute pity that the ending was one of the worst pieces of crap I've ever seen in video gaming.

I'm not even exaggerating.

God damn it. I'm looking forward to playing it (finally), but a bad ending can really sour me on a whole experience.

I'm more surprised that I didn't even know a fourth game existed until now.

@LaughingTarget Me either, I played the first one on GBA, third one on PC and never knew there was a fourth. Looks like it's a good time to check out the second.
