Dear members, Who can offer information on obtaining the Broken Sword game trilogy especially the games for pocket pc.!! I have understood that there are now 4 games? The shadow or the Templars I have already. I am concerning with the 3 remaining games now! I hope hear of your, Groeten.
Groeten
There is indeed a new Broken Sword game, The Angel of Death, and we posted a review of it last week on JA (http://www.justadventure.com/reviews/BrokenSwordAOD/BS4.shtm).
You can order it from the JA Online store, but as it appears you are overseas, it would probably be easier for you to order it from a European online store.
As for the pocket pc version, I am not too familiar with it, but will see what I can find out for you.

Status : Offline | Apart from the grammar, Babelfish did pretty well. Marinus was indeed asking about the four Broken Sword games, specifically the PocketPC versions (of which, I think, there was only the one i.e. Shadow of the Templars).
I will translate to Dutch, if anyone knows about PocketPC versions of the other games in the series, let me know and I will let Marinus know.

Hallo Marinus,
Dit is een Engelstalig forum, maar gelukkig voor jou komen er ook wel Nederlanders die je een handje kunnen helpen. Voor het geval je echt geen Engels begrijpt vertaal ik even wat Randy-JA hierboven schreef:
Er is inderdaad een nieuwe Broken Sword game, The Angel of Death, en JA heeft er vorige week een review van geschreven: (http://www.justadventure.com/reviews/BrokenSwordAOD/BS4.shtm). Je kan het spel bestellen in de JA Online winkel, maar waarschijnlijk is het makkelijker om gewoon in een Nederlandse (al dan niet online) winkel te bestellen.
Voor zover ik weet is er alleen een pocketPC versie van het eerste deel, maar die heb je dus al. De andere delen zijn wel allemaal op de PC uitgekomen, en sommige delen ook op de PlayStation en/of Xbox, maar volgens mij niet op PocketPC.
Als er meer antwoorden op je vraag komen zal ik, indien gewenst, wederom vertalen.

Een 'recensie' om helemaal correct te zijn.

Aside from translating it online, of course. :

I'm still curious where this "meid" came from, though. I suppose it stands for "maid" or something horrible like that. :

Status : Offline | No, it's just a variant of the normal Dutch word 'meisje' (which means 'girl' or 'little girl'). As girls age 10 or older tend to no longer appreciate being called 'little girl', we use the 'meid' version instead. Can be used for girls between 0 and 120 though (same for boys, we have 'jongetje' and 'jongen').
And here endeth our language lesson.
