GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Friday, Aug 21, 2009

I used to write a lot of game reviews, but I haven't enjoyed it for a while. I've sat down and attempted to write a few over the last six months or so, but they never got beyond a few paragraphs before I lost interest or started obsessing over how one paragraph flows to the next. But Shadow Complex came along on Wednesday, which I finished this morning. In between sessions, I thought "this is such a good game, let's see if I can actually get to the end of a review". And I did.

I do hope you'll read and enjoy if you're inclined towards or interested in Shadow Complex. Considering I haven't done this in a while, I think it turned out pretty decently. Reading the paragraphs in my head, they seemed to flow for the most part. Saying that, it's a bit of a speed job considering it was only released a few days ago; tired eyes might have missed some spelling and/or grammar mistakes, so if you see anything glaring, let me know. Also, the harvest analagy that sounded good in my head now seems to read awfully corny.

I forgot that this was one of the games I was excited for when shown at E3. I'll most likely get around to playing my demo of it tomorrow. Glad to see you reviewing again.

Don't worry you've still got it - great review. I downloaded it a couple of days ago but have only played it for a short while. I love it so far though; considering Super Metroid is my all time favorite game, all of those comparisons had me interested.

It's nice to see you reviewing again, as I have always enjoyed reading them. I initially didn't know much about Shadow Complex but the more I read about it the more I am becoming interested in checking it out. Great review as always!

I downloaded Shadow Complex after seeing some gameplay in its video review. When I heard that there 's a good amount of exploration, I know I wanted to get this game. I haven't tried it out yet cause I'm too busy with Lost Odyssey, what a great and beautiful RPG!

Recommended your review , you should try to write more of those, you're good at it.

Damn.. It's one game I really want to play and I don't own a 360. I can't see it being worth buying a 360 for but knowing me, I might. It seems all my friends are XBL players rather than PSN anyway. I really wish they'd release it for PC eventually. I'm an old school Metroid fan and this would be right up my alley.

Review gets my thumbs up!

I'm in the same place as many of the comments; was never really following it from E3, so it came as a pleasant surprise when I tried the demo. Cheers all.
