I actually found Shadowman on the N64 to be a pretty good game but at the same time it was so boring just plodding back and forth the whole time - The story was great but it took forever to complete and seemed a whole waste of time - Nothing was satisfying about it!!
Populous - Another really boring title, there again I never knew how to play it properly!!
What do you think??

The Sims is a great game but I will admit it gets very boring so you should liven it up a bit more by finding better ways to kill people :)
I believe at some point nearly ever game will become boring for the gamer and they toss it away but then sooner or later they retrieve it and then enjoy it again.
Like the 'Gaming Cycle'

Order of shadowmans
N64
PC
Dreamcast
PSX
I think shadowman 2econd coming is going to be really good, but it is having problems at the mo.
But the PSX version is bad, and half way though it gets slow, but then picks up again. I think i wont get all the dark soals (there's 124 or 125 of them! i know, it's more than it says, but acclaim put themm in) but the game is brillent when you fight all the killers!
