Shadow of The Damned

Destructoid gives a score of 8.5/10

I notice a consistent theme in the reviews about the game is that it is funny. Good times.

Akira Yamaoka? I'm sold!

Will pick this up when I'm back home.

So was the 21st the worldwide release date? Or just US?

European release is June 24th. And there's an S missing from the thread title. It's Shadows of the Damned.

I'll be picking this up and Fear3 next week (since I can get 1 of them for £5 when I trade in Duke Nukem)

1up - C+
GT - 6.7

Seems like its getting very mixed reviews

Looks really good but I won't be getting it on launch, it looks like the type of game that won't hold it's price for more than a month or two. I'll pick it up then.

Hey, I was in a rush when I wrote out the title!

It's got 78/100 on metacritic http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/shadows-of-the-damned
Although that makes no sense as it's scored:
93/100
93/100
10/10
10/10
8/10
70/100
Surely it should be in the 80's at least? :confused:

Not the best looking game by any means, but very disturbing and wierd, not as wierd as Suda,s Killer 7, but still wierd enough.
Its prob an aquired taste but im finding it very refreshing,doors made out of demons pubic hair anyone? it doesnt take itself at all seriously, and its good fun, 8/10 for me.

Semiskimmed · 26 Jun 2011 at 14:57

sounds great! :cool:

Playing through this and I'm enjoying it too. Definitely worth a rent if you like 3rd person shooters. Gory, funny and a little sick and twisted.

Limenote · 28 Jun 2011 at 23:29

the folks are GT didn't seem to like the game or the humour very much but I've seen some footage and found it quite funny, especially the British skull. think ill give this a go when its a bit cheaper.
