i was wondering, is there any possibility of ever seeing Shadow Man on GoG?
It's one of the most amazing games i used to play back in the days and i know there's a Pc version3. i reckon if GoG managed to re-publish it with mouse support & W7 support, that would be an instant classic revived

I myself remember playing that in N64, It was quite good even after my brother overhyped that thing. There was a sequel I guess.
Shadowman was great. Real moody "end of the millenium" feel of impending disaster, adult themes done right, amazing soundtrack, interesting open world (loved the Gad temples). This outweighed the somewhat lightweight feel of combat and the occasional lack of variety in enemies/backgrounds.

Apparently there was a graphical update for the PC version which was never implemented - sadly.

Shadowman 2nd coming was PS2 only IIRC and a rather lacklustre follow up. I remember breezing through it very quickly and being underwhelmed.

According to Wikipedia Throwback Entertainment acquired the rights to Acclaim's games library so I guess it would be for GoG to negotiate the rights to Shadowman with them. Another couple of great Acclaim games for the wishlist would be Turok 1 & 2, which also got PC releases (Turok Evolution however can stay where it is, that was awful).

No... never going to happen... ever... well that is unless you sacrifice your firstborn to the great & almighty pedobear who commandith that you watch as he does unspeakable things to said sacrifice. Now the question is... do you feel that it is truly worth it?
