Shadow Man (Nintendo 64, 1999)

I had no idea that this game would be this HUGE! I thought Zelda was a gigantic game cartridge, but this is amazing. For mature players only, this game is a hair-raising, spine-tingling creepfest that goes on and on forever. You want your money's worth of playtime? Here you go. I am guessing it will take a player WEEKS to get through this monster and find everything without the aid of the internet. There are cut-scenes throughout, top-notch voice acting, and great effects. MANY MANY unique environments, not just the same ones repainted over and over. Many objects to find and enemies to blast. The only drawbacks are common to 3D platformers, camera angle and control. I got used to both very quickly. What I never expected was something completely new around every corner. How did they pack all of this into a cartridge game? No really, how?

it wasnt hard to find the game on ebay for very cheap but after it arrived i realized you cant even save without a memory pak, and on top of that the graphics are very poor quality unless you have an expansion pak.

i found it borderline annoying difficult to find both a memory pak and expansion pak for the n64 on ebay that WASNT a bootleg from asia.

the game itself does actually have a good storyline, is very lengthy and challenging but the beginning is so excruciatingly frustrating and the ending of makes the 2 weeks it took me to beat it totally not worth it. the game has pretty much no replay value, the last thing youll ever want to do after beating this game is play it again.

not fun. not good. terrible controls. enjoy if u can. i guess this review is too short so i'll go on. you start out the game with a sceen in which jack the ripper kills himself. then you wake up with a jamaican woman who says the end is coming. then you play as shadowman the hero of the game. this is where it gets bad trying to run and jump and control camera are hard in this game.when you finally start toget the hang of it you run into some evil dogs. this is the part of the game where you turn it off and never play it again. oh yeah you might want to wash your hands or better yet take a shower this game is that bad.

I bought the game for my grandsons. They let me know which games they would like to play. It was received in a very timely manner and the game was played as soon as it was unwrapped. The grandsons enjoyed playing it and it kept them happy for a long while.

If you like the older style N64, this game is a must have!...Hundreds of twists and turns and hidden items!...Be prepared to go back and forth thru lots of worlds to retrieve items and power!..Thing I like the most is you can go wherever you want to go and wherever you want to go!..Nothing is on a "timer".!!...Not for the feint of heart!...Lots of violence, blood and oddities!..Wouldn't suggest it for under 16 !..Will take lots of time and patience but worth the trip!
