After scouring through the sheets of paper at Silicon Knights offices in an attempt to discover what deal they have with Nintendo I discover a frightening sheet of paper. Printed on both sides the sheet of paper tells me the Sanity Effects that narrowly missed being implemented into Eternal Darkness. Time constraints meant the following 25 sanity effects were not included into the game. Yet these are far more frightening than anything that was found in the game, and here they are exclusive to Gameaday are the 25 sanity effects they missed… be afraid:
1. You enter a room filled with 100 zombies moving at an alarming rate towards you, your gun proves dead and your sword breaks and as the zombies edge closer they all turn in to random Pokémon. They then promptly perform a brand new Pokémon-rap… terrifying stuff.
2. You game lid opens and poison gas is sprayed outwards from within, this interactive element then closes the lid once the damage has been done.
3. After finishing the game you bear witness to Tim Henman and Pete Sampras playing Tennis with Kirby as the tennis ball.
4. Half way through the Microsoft X-box crushed the mansion flat, a sign comes up and it reads “Now part of Microsoft Game Studios. Bought out 20/10/02”.
5. Just before you reach the boss the game turns out to be Universal Studio’s and it expects you to play at least 12 seconds of it before you return to the real game… painful.
6. After a short while the game will eliminate your save file, in order to get it to work you must send it to Silicon Knights and get the blood removed.
7. You walk into an auction where all of Leeds United’s best players are lined up with the words “January Sales” placed on a sign just in front.
8. Whilst playing as Alex a tall Skeleton wearing a suit and a bowling hat will walk past you, lift his hat and say “Mornin’ Love”.
9. You walk amongst the debris of the shuttle disaster and find the black box, you listen to it and the last recorded message was “Go on let her drive”.
10. You are forced to chase a naked Leonardo Di Caprio around the mansion with just a musket and a whip.
11. You begin fighting a hideous zombie boss but before long it turns into the even more hideous Michael Jackson and the best policy is to just run away and start again.
12.You are forced to watch Mario chase Luigi around the main hall with a Stanley knife with Mario screaming “It was-a my Pizza!”
13. The end sequence lasts 40 minutes and it turns out the entire story was a Computer Simulation.
14. George Bush bombs the Mansion believing you are housing weapon of mass destruction, and that most of your imports come from abroad.
15. After entering a room the screen goes white and all that is seen is some lettering reading “404-Not found”.
16. Your shotgun turns into a man dressed as a six-foot demonic rabbit called Frank who repeatedly insists you should burn down Patrick Swayze’s house.
17. You meet Mulder and Scully who are investigating missing Play Doh.
18. A Police Box materializes in the corner of the main hall and a man with a long scarf and a hat appears, he spots a metal creature that screams “Exterminate”, the man runs up the stairs, looks down at the creature and yells “If you’re the master race of the universe just try climbing up here to get me”. Before returning to normal.
19. Your Gamecube begins to smell of Cabbage.
20. Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield run on and say “Oh crap wrong game.”
21. You discover a manuscript that tells of Nintendo’s plan to dominate the world via releasing more Pokémon games and making sure EVERYONE has a GBA.
22. Harry Potter comes on and is eaten by a zombie.
23. Alex turns into a 46 year old builder names Bob who is content on fixing the leaky roof.
24. The Rare logo appears only to be kicked out the door by Nintendo.
25. Your Gamecube explodes.
