Charles Cecil signs Broken Sword release day copies

THQ announced today that the release of Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon for PS2, Xbox and PC on 14th November, will run alongside a real and virtual 'game signing' by Charles Cecil, MD of Revolution Software, the game's creator.

The real game signing will take place in Gamestation on Saturday 15th November in York, home to Revolution Software, with a personal appearance from Charles and the chance for Broken Sword fans to chat to the game's creators and get their copy of the new adventure game signed.

For those who are unable to make the pilgrimage to York, the world's first virtual game signing will take place on a dedicated forum on Tiscali UK on Friday 14th November. The virtual game signing will allow users to chat to Charles and his team and receive a signed game sleeve, in a format of their choice.

"We're hugely flattered by the support we've received from Broken Sword fans to-date and we're excited at the opportunity of talking to our players on a one-to-one basis and signing copies of their games," commented Charles Cecil, MD, Revolution Software.

Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon will be published by THQ for PS2, Xbox and PC on 14th November 2003. For more info on the game, check out Evan Dickens' first impressions.

Update: It seems that the online forums are only open to UK citizens. An e-mail has been sent to THQ about this.
