THQ and Philips confirm that Broken Sword: The Angel of Death will utilise the ambient system...
In a joint statement, THQ and Philips have confirmed that the upcoming PC title, Broken Sword: The Angel of Death, will support amBX technology. Mixing ambient lighting, 'active furniture', and even airflows, amBX aims to create a new level of immersion for gamers.
"With Philips' amBX system we can create a Broken Sword game that is not only emotionally engaging but also a visual experience that is both dramatic and very unique," said Mickey Torode, Senior Global Brand Manager, THQ Inc. "Philips has been extremely supportive not only with the development of the game, but also in providing THQ the resources and technology to demonstrate the game alongside the new technology for our key partners."
"Angel of Death is an ideal game to pioneer our agreement with THQ - innovative, and atmospheric with a strong narrative drive - but it really is just the beginning," commented Jo Cooke, Chief Marketing Officer for Philips amBX. "THQ's profound understanding of the market and the strength in depth of its games portfolio will, I'm sure, enable the company to get some stunning results integrating amBX in its games."
Philips has also confirmed that it's in the final stages of a number of other publishers to support amBX in future titles.
We'll have more news shortly...

HI IF ANY OF YOU ARE GETTING THE BLACK CHARACTERS, IT IS BECAUSE YOUR COMPUTER HAS MORE THAN ONE CPU.
BUT AS ALWAYS THERE IS A WAY AROUND IT.... FOR WINDOWS 7 USERS FOLLOW THESE VERY EASY STEPS. (REMEMBER THIS CAN BE CHANGED BACK AFTER)
1) PRESS START MENU
2) IN THE SEARCH BOX TYPE " MSCONFIG " AMD PRESS ENTER (A NEW BOX WILL APPEAR CALLED SYSTEM CONFIGURATION)
3) CLICK ON THE " BOOT " TAB THEN ON "ADVANCE OPTIONS "
4)TICK IN THE BOX NEXT TO " NUMBER OF PROCESSES " AND USE THE DROP DOWN BOX TO SELECT 1 ONLY.
5)CLOSE THE BOX DOWN AND THE COMPUTER WILL ASK TO RESTART, DO THIS AND THE GAME WILL WORK FINE FROM NOW ON.
6) TO GO BACK TO NORMAL AFTER FOLLOW STEPS 1 TO 4 BUT DESELECT THE TICK AND RESTART.

My computer is quite old, 1.6 GHz, but it still starts the game. I see the intro and all, but when I have to actually play, the screen goes on and off, on and off, like a flashlight. Super annoying. Do you think this is simply because my computer can't take it? Or is there any way of fixing this..
