Hello! Newbie here... :)
Well everyone, My name is Anderson, i´m 20 years old (will be 21 in may), and I´ve just registered here...
I live in Brazil...(yeah, kinda far...lol) And i´ve got a big favor to ask you guys...I´m just DYING to play broken sword...all of them...and I can´t find it anywhere! Here in Brazil is even harder, cuz as it didn´t become a success here (problably because of the foreign language problem), you can´t find it to sell anymore. I´ve tried to download it from emule, torrents...and it always gave me headaches (didn´t work right) So...i´m humbly asking for your help...please?

I don´t have a DVD Rom...and It would be kinda expensive to buy it... The postage, and the money (from our monetary system to the website´s one) transfer wouldn´t make it cheap... I wonder if there isn´t anywhere I could try to download it...And burn it on cd... |

Welcome to the forum.
Downloading software (even old software) without the consent of the copyright holder is illegal. We don't allow links to those sorts of downloads here. Sorry. You could check out Beneath a Steel Sky, which was made by the same company as the Broken Sword games and released as a free download a few years ago. Otherwise, I'm afraid eBay is your best (legal) bet for finding the Broken Sword games. |

 P.S. Don't download games unless they are on freeware - not only is it seriously illegal - they can also carry bugs that will ruin your PC and cost you a hefty sum to repare. P.P.S. Found it on Amazon.com - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...venturegame-20 try this... P.P.P.S I turn 30 in May so looks like we both have a big one coming up - Happy Birthday when it comes!

 ) let alone support it, but I'd recommend you search sites like eBay and Amazon.com and see if they offer it at a decent price. Also, a decent DVD drive doesn't cost much more than $15-$30, and I'm sure you can buy one at a local shop. It'd be money well spent since most games come on DVD these days (well, except in the U.S.), that way you could get the sold-out version RLacey linked to

 .... okay I see what you mean, that's like 80€ or something, W-T-F? Anyway, there are loads of CD-ROM BS games on eBay, though I don't know about the shipping costs to Brazil.. I'd give you my copies if I didn't love the games so damn much

 ...however I do have a second copy of BS2 which I take it you haven't played yet. So it's yours (and don't worry, it's on CD), and hopefully some other kind soul out there will be able to help you with BS1. If not I'm sure e-bay will see you okay...E-mail me your address to [email protected] and I'll send it to you. Don't worry about shipping - let's call it an early birthday present on behalf of me and the other Adventure Gamers.

But every day people get worse...unfortunatelly Anyway, I´m really happy and really thankful for what aboyinperil is doing... And thanks for all of you as well for trying to help me...it really means a lot... I think i´ll just have to search some more for the first cd though... This is one of the best birthday presents i´ve ever had...and I won´t forget! I was working at a gaming website...I had to make previews, reviews...and I was really sad cuz I was fired for no reason... My manager just found out she needs someone with technological expertise and not a journalist...I was really sad...but now i´m really happy cuz at least I just found something I was looking for...thank you all! Oh! And nice easter for everyone...i´m going to my mom´s now...(Since we never got quite along, we live separatedly) Hope you all have a nice holliday!
