    Wasn't sure if I was going to buy this game on the xbox backward compatibility sale or not, but after seeing this review it's a must buy .. looks very good

    This game is absolutely awesome! Unfortunately, the games poor sales may cause EA to pull the the plug on any future sequels. Which really sucks because the ending set it up for a sequel. Hopefully they'll go ahead and produce a sequel. I'd hate to see a great franchise go the way of Shenmue. But mark my words. This game will be a cult classic.

    One of my favorites this year hands down. It may not be as polished as Dead Space or Resident Evil, but I'll be damned if I didn't have more fun playing this than both of those great games combined.

    @MrShotgun175 I've played a lot, Bulletstorm, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Crisis 2, Portal 2, Dragon Age 2, Brink etc. I enjoyed them all but they were all to be expected/predictable.
    Shadow's of the Damned is fresh (and completely bananas!). I mean it's by the guys who made Killer 7, Devil May Cry, No More Heroes and Resident Evil. That was reason enough for me to pick it up and it payed off.

    @Smarty4789 usually in PS3 games, they are mapped to L1/R1 because they are much easier to press

    This game if great, really is, but i feel like some of the humor is forced, but it still holds a special place in my heart. With a ghost n goblin type objective and map load screen, and a resident evil 4 type gameplay, it holds a lot of potential, and a delivers a lot.

    @adham2000eg I know that... I just wanted to know what were the controls for this game. Sometimes stupid developers map them to L2/R2 and don't let us change it in the options and I hate that.

    Do sports games, or puzzle games have stories? Ninja gaiden series is a prime example of a game you enjoy, solely on gameplay.

    If not something else, this games does remind us that games should be fun, artfull, unrealistic (except sports), daring and deffinitelly single player minded.. But if you don't care about those things, what's important is that the game is good. If you buy games for the multiplayer rent it.. If not deffinitelly buy it

  • @AgentCell
    @AgentCell 13 лет назад

    @THERAVENAK47 The game is really fun and you'll enjoy it all the way through. However, I recommend that you rent it because sadly it's only 8 hrs long with no new+ game mode and extra content. If they make another Shadows of The Damned these are my recommendations: 25 hrs gameplay, extra content like survival mode or side missions, new+ game mode with item+weapon carry over+costumes, more world open exploration, way more guns with optional upgrades, and much more tougher enemies.

    I was afraid this game would be more style over substance & clearly it looks like it has its issues, just from some of the videos alone, but at the same time, it's one of those games that you're just intrigued to play.

    No worries, here's my attitude: "Don't accuse someone of being a jerk/ignorant etc, if the people in question are of the kind explain to them why they'd get so much more work done with reasoning arguments, citing your facts, etc."
    Think about it, atleast...

    @ExoSC8 cheap deadspace copy? it doesnt take place in space. it doesnt use dismemberment. the guy who created this was behind resident evil 4, the game after which dead space's control scheme is modeled. dont get me wrong i love dead space but that and this are absolutely nothing alike.

      Always the case with Suda51. "No More Heroes" series? Underrated! "Killer7" (GC/PS2) underrated. "Killer is dead" underrated. I didn't like "Lollipop Chainsaw" but if I were a girl I probably would enjoy that game too. He probably made that game for gamer chicks, but yeah he is underrated alright. "Underrated" is his middle name. In fact we should call him "SudaUnderrated51"

    what do you expect from the guy who created RE4? he can not make extension from that game play?
    graphics are always not the strongest from japanese developers unless they are kojima production or SE.
    japanese developed games usually have slower pace or more complex (sometimes clunky) controls, the precise aiming system in the game adds more variety in gameplay which is refreshing for a 3rd person shooter game. it takes creativity to do that, thank you.

    The reason that I got this game is because it was different from all the shooter zombie games that are out there by the thousands ! .... this is a very good game ...and I only hope they come out with another one .... but it doesn't matter anyway because some other game campany like E.A. Capcom etc. ... will make a copy and market it ... add mutiplayer ti it ... and make a thousand sequels !

I still look forward to playing this one though. I think this looks better than F3AR even if theres no multiplayer.

    @gohcool games like mass effect, God of War, Gears of War, L.A. Noire, CoD and the like have plenty of creativity. Content, you're looking at games like Mass Effect, Fallout, Dragon Age, Elder Scroll, Fable, Noire, and many more, and arguably western games have more good, multiple ending games that are made recently than Japan. There's also the uncharted the top contender
    The 'still number 1 game', despite criticism, is WoW for its content and creativity. Number of players indicates it.
