  • Summary: It seems silly to malign a game about the undead by calling it lifeless, but that's exactly Shadow Man's problem.

I don't quite know why I loved it so much, been a long time since I played it, but the story was great, and the music was awesome. I played the game for 2 days straight when I first got it, because I had just bought the Dreamcast and didn't have a memory card... which really sucked when I fought the final boss. My second playthrough with a memory card was much easier though. I give this game a 10, and hope they remake the game or re-release it on the Playstation Store. 10/10… Expand

    I used to play this game many years back on my PC and as I remember finished it twice!
    Everything is great about this game. The atmosphere    I used to play this game many years back on my PC and as I remember finished it twice!
    Everything is great about this game. The atmosphere (very dark and evil atmosphere), gameplay, music, story line and even graphics!
    It's one of those great classic games that actually you should use you brain and memory to remember blocked and non accessible areas because you have to come back and reach these areas after obtaining new powers, new abilities and new items. It's not one of those linear games that we can see nowadays that many of them are all about just pushing a few buttons that appears on the screen and see tons of cutscenes!
    Totally recommended for those who like Legacy of Kain series specially Soul Reaver fans!

    P.S: It's easier to play the game with controller but keyboard also is good and forget about the mouse. it's useless!    … Expand
