Good news: It's on PC
Bad News: It's also on PS2 and X-Box. Consoles have no mouse, therefore point and clicks are useless on them.
Good news: It's scheduled for a 2002 release.
Bad news: It's 3D
Dunno about this. It's obviously a PC game, but it's 3D and therefore probably crap. I might go replay Broken Sword 1 and 2.

"What?"

You didn't know that already?
1.) Go to GAD 1 winners list. Find a win by my about Point and clicks. Read. See my love for them.
2.) Why do you write long posts for everything? Despite your hate of pixies, I think you must have one working for you. *goes to check henhouse*
"You're a looney"
"The black knights always triumph!"
*Chops arm off*
"Victory is mine"
"Tis but a scratch"
So on...
you musn't think I'm perverted, but does that not sound vaguely phallic to anyone else.
What's our friend George on a quest for this time? Is it some viagra so he can have his way with Nico after all this time. Does he need to awaken the sleeping dragon? Is broken sword a reference to impotence? So, so many questions.
It'll probably rock. I played and completed both games. Shadow of the Templars was a beter story in my opinion. And the smoking mirror was annoying for me. You see I got stuck in the jungle where the boar runs past.. remember that bit? Well, I got so frustrated that having gone for the trial-and-error approach of using every item in my inventory with every single clickable thing on the screen I despaired. I despaired to the extent that I called the premium rate phoneline (when I was little and such things were really really naughty) and then having spent about 5 minutes going through touch tone gump I finally got to the relevant bit and lo-and-behold there was nothing of help. I had done everything it told me to. Then it dawned on me when I went back to play that bit for the umpteemth time. I had missed a path. There was a path that was in the middle of the screen leading to another screen of untold new experiences and bewonderment.
And then the itemised phonebill came. And I got banned from the computer after my dad phoned the number to see what this hugely expensive number was (and I had already blamed it on my sister) then the words Broken Sword rang out and he knew it was me. And so I had to endure nigh on 2 weeks of frustration as I eagerly awaited progressing to the next stage of new challenges that were awaiting me.

Stryke, if you like point and clickers you must be a man of distinction.
Brian, come clean your room up!
Oops, wrong story.
But I can do that voice perfectly. Hur hur.
Brother Grix, bring forth the Holy Hand Grenade.
