Talk:Shadow Man (video game)

message: Per Moby Games, there were already 13 M games out for N64, 1 on Game Boy and 4 on Super Nintendo when Shadow Man hit, so it was the nineteenth M game on a Nintendo console, hardly one of the first.  I've removed the claim that it was. Ace of Sevens 08:27, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Where on Moby games? Anyone have a page with a chart of M-rated games? Were non-rated games allowed on Nintendo consoles? What were the first 18? 184.145.18.50 (talk) 18:21, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

message: Generally speaking, it was the closest thing I could find to a tag that said "This article needs to more closely adhere to the principles of WP:FICTION" and less generally speaking the traditions of WP:CVG. Section titles "What is a Shadowman?" and "Shadowmen" are wonderfully noninformative. Almost no sentence in the entire article tell me how the game is actually played; "By day he is Mike LeRoi, working at the Wild at Heart. By night he becomes the Shadowman." Great. Is there a day/night cycle, or is the day simply an excuse to show some cutscenes, while the meat of the game takes place at night, as Shadow Man? Can the player move back and forth at will, or are there restrictions on when/where that can happen?
In short, tell me about the game, not about Shadow Man. Nifboy 05:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As I recall correctly, even that is not true. Change happens for Mike at will, not due to the sun going down. Lots42 (talk) 03:51, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

message: Acclaim Entertainment is bankrupt, and its property sold in a fire sale. Throwback Entertainment owns alot of its old property. Does that include this game? Who does own this game? I'd like to know, so as to put it in the article. Spriteless (talk) 04:55, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Well, the section lacks depth. It more or less summarizes the first impressions that compare the two.  11:46, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Game Comic Differences section 

message: Is it confirmed that the game was inspired by the Jack the Ripper graphic novel FROM HELL by Alan Moore?!
It came years before the game, with the same idea that JTR's killings were magic ritual to change the world as we know it.. and London Cathedrals play a huge symbolic role in the comic, like the cathedral of the game.

thread_title:  Alan Moore's From Hell.. 

message: Character sections describes both Mike and Netty as immortal. Is there a source for this? Been a while since I played so I don't recall, are they called immortal in the manual or the word-of-god narration? Do they refer to themselves or each other as immortal? Do they exhibit this?
Also does it refer to un-aging or un-killability? 184.145.18.50 (talk) 18:19, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
