Shadows of the Damned - OT

[Bob]

What is it? A mash-up of Mikami's Resident Evil 4 shooting controls (no running at the same time, Leon's original laser sight for lining up head shots) and atmosphere, with Suda 51's love of phallic symbols and macho motorbike riding.

Unless this sucks I'm probably in. I love the bonkers Suda 51.

I'm being sent this to review it. I'm not really sure what to expect. All I know is that it's a shooter and there's weird demon-y shit going down.

Me too. Early signs are encouraging, with a score of 9.25/10 from Game Informer, who describe it as "... Resident Evil 4 rewritten by a 12-year-old obsessed with d--- jokes."

There's no part of that that I don't like the sound of.

That's me sold! Half the fun of Bulletstorm was the fanny mouths on every one.

Bonkers SotD Rap - suffice to say nsfw.

I got my review copy today. If you can hang on for a bit Bob, I'll send you mine when I'm done with it. It's got "PROMOTIONAL COPY: NOT FOR RESALE" in big letters on the box, plus there's no barcode, so it's not like I can trade it in or anything.

Well that's jolly decent of you old bean but those copies do go on eBay.

Nah, if you want it I'll send it on mate. Probably be in a week or so.

It's pretty good, by the way. It's got some interesting puzzle-based gameplay that revolves around light and darkness and it's funny in a completely juvenile and copious dick jokes sort of way.

In the light of the EDGE 5 I'll take you up on that offer if it's still available VA. I'll send it on to someone after if they want? Share the wealth and all.

[Venomous Albino]

Sure, no problem. Like I said, it'll probably be in a week or so.

[Bob]

Sure, no problem. Like I said, it'll probably be in a week or so.

Let me know when your ready and I'll pm you my address.

The Reticule; it's a small not-taken-off-yet site my friend in work runs. I've done 6 or 7 reviews for him since May. To be honest I just see it as another step to maybe doing something like this professionally; it's all more stuff to put into my portfolio.

[hollywooda]

Mate based on ur honest duke review, u should be snapped up, let me know where ur reviews are from now on, I wanna read.

[Venomous Albino]

If you search on that site, I've done reviews for Duke Nukem Forever, Rayman 3D, Pilotwings Resort, Naruto Shippuden 3D, Ocarina of Time 3D and Crysis 2 (maybe you shouldn't read that one though )
