Product Description:
Totally cool adult graphic, gothic, horror game-play.

Editorial Review:
Shadow Man, based on the Acclaim Comics series of the same name, lurks onto the Nintendo 64 platform with an unusually massive, in-depth, and graphically intense experience for fans of creepier gaming experiences. This single-player, third-person 3-D action adventure packs a well-scripted story, massive nonlinear levels, intuitive player controls, and wonderfully horrific graphics.

Players assume the role of Shadow Man, an immortal voodoo warrior who wanders the Deadside, a mix of grand gothic architecture melded into a fleshy landscape. Seems that some of the otherworldly forces are determined to bring about Armageddon up on Earth and, naturally, it's up to Shadow Man to hunt down the undead culprits. The majority of the game focuses on negotiating physical challenges, such as jumping over ravines and swimming through caverns, defeating a variety of enemies, activating buttons and levers that allow access to new areas, and then repeating the process in a new level. Redundant? Not at all. Well-designed levels encourage players to keep driving through the game, and enemies inherently surprise the player when least expected. This is a long game, requiring up to 70 hours to complete, but those prepared for an intense gaming experience will enjoy the journey. --Eric Twelker

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of my favorite games of all time
This game ranks pretty high with all my other games I have and I have a lot.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good game... Definitely MATURE!!!
This game is great. I enjoy playing it, but it is definitely for mature players. I do NOT suggest this game for anyone under 16 at youngest! I would recommend this game to those who enjoy adventure, fantasy and action games. This game adds a twist of religion background to include Voodoo. Love the experince I have with this game!


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - this game is cool if........................
1. You dont like saving your game with out a controller pack 2. You like good graphics 3. You like good music 4. You like games that are so frusterating that you want to through stuff at the t.v.

all in all if u are patient then buy this game if not then buy a lot of t.v.s


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - With such a cheap price, this is a MUST HAVE for N64 users
Amazon.com is now selling it ........ & everything, say you pay ..... And let's say you are so good & it only takes you 40 hours to finish the game. That's a buck an hour on the game. Try taking a buck to a local arcade & see how long you can last! Besides, I really don't think anyone of you could finish it in 40 hours. I bought it 2 weeks ago & I have been on it for about 2 hours a day. I am only about 80% done. What I am really trying to say is " IT'S A GREAT DEAL! " It is the content of the game that stirred my interest. I fell in love with it the first time I turned it on. Graphics were excellent. The monsters & creatures were creative but realistic. Sounds were so real in some area you will think you are in it. Nintendo should have more of these type of game to capture audience like me. I am getting really sick & tired of those Super Mario & Banjo kiddie game. Acclaim, who is the creator of this game, should also take full credit of this. I will even throw in this if you choose to buy the game. Go to www.gamesages.com & get the tips & cheats on this game. This would make your life a lot easier. This guy nicknamed marshmellow wrote about 60 pages of tips on this game. Give it a try. You won't regret it. For about $30.00, you've got nothing to lose. You will thank me for recommending this to you! Enjoy! Edwin


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - ok, So now what?
So,It is true that this game isn't for kiddies, But does it have to be flippin' bewildering to adults? This is by far No equal to Goldeneye or Perfect D. This game needed some polishing up as far as enemy character graphics and movements. What will confuse the hell out of you is how do you get this or that item? and feel the need to backtrack every so often to find clues-as for Nettie and Jaunty- They're useless!:( however I do fancy the serpent.-point is, restrain from throwing hard objects at T.V. screen when frustrated.
