I pre-ordered it, and it was to come out on the 14th, Soul Calibur took a
week to arrive so I assumed I would get Shadow man on the 21st, but 2 days
after ordering it and two days before it's suppose to be realised I get it.

Have a nice day :)

Got my copy on Saturday from gameplay.com. A very nice surprise. I had
a little play with it and I'd call it worthwhile. The Soul Reaver
comparison is definitly a viable one, as the premise of the game (1st
person TR-esque with dark overtones) is concerned. Shadowman has a
different sense of humour, though, sometimes pretty tongue in cheek.

When I first saw some of the in game cut-scenes, I was a bit
disappointed, especially the first encounter with Nettie (your
boss...). Once I got into the game, that changed. The effects/graphics
are a good bit ahead of Soul Reaver, and meeting up with Jaunty was one
of the more laughter inducing moments I have had in the last year or so
of gaming. Getting rid of Ghouls makes them break up with light shining
from within - cool. I miss the impaling from Soul Reaver, though.

The concept of Liveside and Deadside again is very similar to Soul
Reaver - you can't die. If you "die" in the real world, you go to the
Shadowland. If you "die" there, you go back to the last point
your "teddy" (don't ask) can remember, ie. the level start.

So, I have to go back to work now, but I'd recommend the game from what
I have seen so far.

It is actually illegal (or at least against some Sega rules) for them to do
this.

I don't think it's illegal, it's just a breach of contract... Which may well
be the same thing now I think about it.

DOH!
