What a game! On the one hand, "Shadow Warrior" is a modern shooter the way it should be done - nice graphics, explosive environments, a decent set of weapons, even some of that upgrading and levelling games can't seem to go without these days, but it's not too much. On the other hand, "Shadow Warrior" turns you into a superhero, or, well, into Deadpool. Lo Wang (!) is a katana-wielding comicbook-collecting mercenary with a snarky sense of humour, magical healing abilities (among others) and a voice in his head. The game is rich in meta-jokes about video games in general and "Shadow Warrior" in particular, both the original and this version ("I was hoping for a more clichéd setting"). I had an absolute blast playing this, and that's what counts. Playing through the storyline on "Normal" (which was actually pretty easy) took me around 11 hours, and there are both a "Nightmare" mode and tons of secrets to find, so there should be some replay value too.
