Well...Eternal Darkness got a 9.6 from IGNCube. I'll be curious to see what GameSpot gives ED. Damn, I might have to buy a Cube just for this game.

Resident Evil, and now Eternal Darkness. Who said that all Nintendo games are kiddy??? :nono:

Wow! i haven't seen those ones yet. Thanks Gekko :cool: . Couple of q's. How much does it take to kill a dude? it seemed to take forever in the clips and sumtimes it seemed to regengerate bodyparts... :hmm: Also, u know the one where he turned into a zombie? well in the clip it said depending on what one u take it would take u down a diff path... Well did that one take u down the path to death :p ? or wuz that just another insanity trick? one more... when he wuz slicing off the arms of those guys to make em blow up... do u have to do it to only 2 of the same type of guys to start a chain reaction or u gotta chop off arms to every guy u wanna blow up?

From my understanding, part of ED's charm is that it's a balancing act. Sometimes you may want to blast them a few times and kill them, sometimes you might just want to hit them once, then run. From the looks of it, 2 shotgun blasts kills them off, but i really don't know.

The 3 paths is a major part of ED. The story and stuff changes depending on what path you choose, and if you go back and do all 3, you get the Uber-ending. My guess on that was it's the end of the demo. They didn't want to show too much of the game, and didn't show any story, so I bet they just had him turn into a zombie and then ended it. But who knows, anything is possible. It could be a sanity effect.

My guess is 2. Having a room full of 20 guys, you're better off killing them one by one. I think it's just stuff that can happen if you're not careful, so you gotta think before you attack. Cause if there were 20 guys in that room, they might have died.

Ohhh, so those zombies blowin all to hell is a side effect of not bein careful on where u chop off their appendeges. I C... hey if u started that chain reaction and ran like hell, would u be able to get outa the blast radius or go to a diff room and not take any damage? that would be pretty good to clear out a room wit a bunch of guys... or wut u still take damage even tho u r in a diff room...

Maybe it depends what you shop off and maybe what you chop off varies from zombie to zombie.

I get ED tomorrow right after Germany walks all over South Korea (hopefully). What a great day!

Well, when I played the Spaceworld demo (2k1, that is) it was different depending on where you shoot them. A shot to the chest and one to the head seems to kill them (both, not just one or the other).

That could be different now, though.
