Yesterday I spent a couple of hours playing Eternal Darkness, trying to figure out the complicated magick system. I was walking down these long stairs when this huge spider thing appears and casts a spell, something which I've never seen an enemy in the game do. It begins blasting me with lightning, so I get out my pistols and begin firing. It doesn't do anything, so I run and it follows. Quickly going through the magick page, I made a magical barrier around myself, the same colour as the enemy's. It still managed to penetrate it, summoning zombies to attack me. Then, I remember back to earlier and work out that blue magic beats red, like water beats fire. So, I use the same spell but in combination with the blue rune, and the shield comes up. The zombies walk into it like a cockroach into a bug zapper. Then, thinking along the same lines, I enchant the pistol bullets with the same thing and fire at the spider boss. Soon, it's crumbled.

Shows how games have developed.

That's because they got wiped out by forces even they couldn't control.

I quite liked the story the game was based upon once you got far enough in, ocz i've always been a believer in ancient civilisations that were way more advance than we currently are.

It was in the Maximillian Roivas part, fighting the spider thing before the end of the chapter.

I'm currently that journalist guy. It was quite funny actually, because I had a music cd on the dvd player at the same time, so both the music and the GC were playing at the same time. I spent five minutes trying to kill a green possesion monster (the one with big claws) which had a shield, and the moment I did, celebrate good times came on. Amazingly funny.

Twin pistol things were awesome. There was so much ammo on that level though...
