Managed to lock myself outta my flat today. So to pass the time, I went down town with a couple mates, and then went to my mates flat and played Eternal Darkness!

Dunno what my mates were talking about when they said it was rubbish. And STUPID comments like "It doesn't look as nice as Resi Evil!" Well durr, it hasn't got prerendered backdrops. They're proper 3D jobs.

Anyways, it's a great game. The graphics are good, the sound and voices are superb. The character movement is pretty decent for a game. The fight system is really good. The going insane is pretty wicked. Specially when you start going quite nuts, cos the camera starts to tilt and you get really odd camera angles which just add a great effect/feeling to the game.

I'll leave it there for now. Leave the rest for my review!

Well as soon as I get a chance to play my game (probably Tuesday, GRRRRRR!) I will finsih Pious' chapter and go for red this time, I want a challenge in my life once in a while...
Those guardian things used to be a pain in the AS$ when I first saw them, but with Edward Roivas I can kill them easily but wasting about 10 minutes in the process.

Not turue, a damage field, as in the name, does inflict damage. Just not alot, yes you can hide in it, but if you are clever you can trap an enemy in it so they cannot get you.

I just kept hitting him with my sword, damage fields don't do jack damage they just prtect you. Enchant your sword and hit that punk repeatedly.

I'm stuck on the guardian at the end of chapter 5.

I've tried casting damage field and it makes him teleport, only thing is it soesn't do much else! I've forced him to teleport well over ten times.

Could anyone point me in the right direction?

I beat the game on Xelo'toth level of hardness! (green Ancient) The end boss is really amazing for those of you who haven't experience one of the 3 possible endings of the game.
*Spoilers for those who haven't finished the game once*



It took about 4 tries to finish Pious off, quite hard really, but I was able to use some of my spells while he gained another shield, I also had the enchanted Gladius (the one that doesn't wear off) it works exactly the same as the Gladius but doesn't need another enchanting when it normally runs out of power.
Now I intend to go through the blue one which for some including NOM think is the hardest of them all (weird since the red choice has harder enemies...)

Aha! Sorted the git! It's not that hard after all.

(No, it wasn't a lit fart...)
