So why doesn't ShadowMan get the love he deserves?
Everyone on this board was born after it was released
>>389494939
Because I was never good enough to beat it. Gonna replay it soon though.
This, Forsaken and Extreme-G should be remade.
>>389495025
speak for yourself child.
It is a great game in many aspects but the enemies take way too long to kill.MOMMA SAID EAT YOUR MEAT.

My only gripe with this game was the sound effect of his gun which sounds like a flushing toilette on overdrive
>>389495170
Betting my ass that 80% of people who owned this game never beat it. The backtracking and abstract level design was just too much in many cases
>>389495331
Eh, Extreme-G had some pretty good sequels (except for 2) unlike ShadowMan. 2econd Coming can eat a dick.
Forsaken was cool but I'd rather replay any Descent game than Forsaken.

>The backtracking and abstract level design was just too much in many cases
I never made it to there anyway, I really sucked back then.
I really loved the bits I did see though.
Always wanted to get into this game, but the early 3D graphics are downright nasty in this one, it's so low poly yet it unironically tries to go for a realistic look failing miserably. I grew up in the 90s and I love old games, but this one's just butt ugly. Even the first Silent Hill looks way better.
I've been saying this for 18 years but I swear I'll play it one day

He got his own song and every thing, what more do you want?

It was obviously a joke your witless fuck
Midway is gone now, fuck if I know who owns the rights to the series now but odds are you'll never see anything related to this series ever again
Reminder that Shadowman and Turok take place in the same universe.
Never beat the N64 version, but last year I got it from GOG and finally 100% goddamn completed it.The included strategy guide really helped.
>>389495331
Wow, I don't think I've ever heard Forsaken mentioned on /v/. Great game.
>>389495331
exactly, all my underrated gems from the 64
Always saw it on the shelves at Blockbuster, never bothered to rent it.
reminder that matthewmatosis played jaungty in shadow man.

Me too. Explain the game anons.
Beat it with my dad. We absolutely used a guide from old Gamefaqs/Neoseeker/whatever. Got the second machine gun, too. Was lots of fun but really jank.

You play Shadowman. Michael such and so. You're a mobster who's family dies at some point, including your anooying niglet of a brother. You die in a hit and are brought back my Momma Netti, a voodoo dindu who sews the mask of shadows into your chest. This lets you travel back and forth between the realms of life and death. Since you "wear" the mask you're automatically tasked with saving the world or more accurately, balancing life and death. So you go through the games, meet a great snak skeleton who's hilarious Oiresh, meet some serial killers who are trying to build a literal nightmare engine inside a gigantic evil fortress doing some shit in the real world. In the end you fight the biblical legion who is actually well voiced and then you save the world.

Uh oh, does this mean we can't even discuss this game anymore as well?
>>389499975
Basically it's a third person action adventure metroid like. You collect powers and explore different locations to collect powers to backtrack to get to places you couldn't get before.
Cool thing is that you can travel between the real world, where you are well, a skinny Louisiana black guy with a gun, and the Deadside where you are ass kicking ShadowMan.
The hole game reeks of late 90s/early 2000s edgy art. Like a Tool music video clashing with the movie 7 + Voodoo but not going totally overboard.
It's pretty neat and unique.
>>389500426
Don't forget that Momma Netti constantly forces Michael to bone her so she can stay young.

>it scared the bejeesus out of me
>>389494939
Still got this Shadowman Atztec Challenge mashup pic on my hdd.
>>389494939
no one loves niggers
>>389494939
Because, I don't want to play a game as a nigger.
>>389500612
I totally forgot. And the whole, "C'mon Mikey! LUUUUUUKKKKKKEEEEEEE" shit. Still, I actually liked it a lot. Definitely longer than necessary but the enemies ranged from poorly designed to holy jesus terrifying. The fucking pigs, man.
>>389499975
Its an action adventure game, and its a 3D metroidvania sort of.
Anyone here played the true Shadow Man 2?
