This thread has been linked to the game 'Shadowman'.
I know it was an old game but it has been brought up latly and I've just remembered how much I loved it. So much to do... massive sprawling in depth levels that were scary, challenging and fantastic. Jaunty was hilarious too.
A deep deep story and a game that was built for the N64 with a very dodgy Playstation equilivent that... strangely had far worst sound of all things! I got 120 lost souls and got that pointless gun but it was such a great game... even collecting those things were enjoyable... and killing those hilarious serial killers was probably the most enjoyable thing i've ever had to do. AND I didn't even use a solution.
One of the only games that even came close to Zelda's greatness.
I hear the sequel, Shadowman 2econd coming was a dissapointment and unlike the original... which is SUCH A SHAME! and It was cancelled after the N64 version.
A beautiful game and a sequel from the same team like planned would have been ideal.
I'd love for it to return but I feel it may just be one of those truly incredible games that gets lost in the void of endless sequels.
Acclaim's greatest moment ever!
Anyone else have any thoughts?

Interesting? Pish... FANTASTIC!
I've never played it, although I always thought it looked interesting.
Oh it was so fantastic...
If i ever get my N64 back out I will start it again.

It was a 15 wasn't it?
It was good, if a bit long winded. What I played of it I enjoyed, but then I got stuck and never played it again which was kinda stupid.

I've never played it, but it scared the crap out of my cousin, when he was 8 - he was so-scared, they took it back the very-next day, and exchanged it for something more "8-years-old".
Infact, ShadowMan was reccomended to him by the guy working in Comet (where they got it from) - even though it is clearly-stated as an `18´.

I didn't ever like playing it but I did like wanting to play it.
I think it was the storyline and the constant promise of new cool things that never really delivered.
