This should come as especially welcome news to GOG customer StingingVelvet, who commented in his review of the game, "unfortunately this is not the classic version that you would expect from Good OLD Games."

It looks like GOG really has wised up!

Not only does the Revolution Software release feature new art by Watchmen artist Dave Gibbons, it's also around 20 percent longer than the original.

But Joystiq, is it possible that all this could be available for just $6.99? Indeed it is, little guy. Indeed it is.

Like the (already available) Nintendo DS and Wii versions of the remake, Broken Sword: The Director's Cut for iPhone sports an updated look, Dave Gibbons (Watchmen) art and a redefined control scheme, thrusting the fourteen-year-old adventure game into the modern screen-tapping era.

In February 2009, Revolution Software founder Charles Cecil teased more classic remakes could potentially be explored if projects at the time saw commercial success. Considering how solid its first iPhone effort was, we're hoping this is the start of re-introducing gamers to the entire Broken Sword legacy. Now if someone would only remake the Gabriel Knight series, we'd sleep better at night.
