George's age

George is said to be born in 1978, right? So in the first Broken Sword, which I assume took place in the present of 1996, when it was released, that would make him 18... Doesn't he seem mid to late 20s, though? (Random, I know :P)

What? No way was he born in '78! Where'd you get that from? Well.. if that's true.. it's gotta be set in the future, right? WTF? George looks about thirty, maybe a little older. I'd say Nico is about five to ten years younger than him, but that's just my opinion.

Right. I knew Wikipedia isn't reliable when it comes to stuff like this.
Well, see for yourself anyway: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Stobbart

Broken Sword: SotT takes place a few weeks before the millenium.

If George was born in '78, he would be 21 during the game.

So I thought at first, but even 1996 is at the end of the millenium too... Had they placed it in 2000 or something, I bet they would've used some gadgets or sci-fi things.

Also... chances of George being a qualified patent lawyer by this point... lol.
