Shadows of the Damned on 360

Shadows of the Damned Screen Shots

Shadows of the Damned is a Shooting game available on the 360. It can be played in Singleplayer modes.

Shadows of the Damned is a Shooting game. Shooting games present a world in which the character must shoot their way out of dangerous situations. They provide the player with an array of weapons tailored to specific tasks. This unavoidably involves a combination of fisticuffs and gun based fighting that dictates the violent nature of these experiences. Beneath this harsh exterior though is often an intricate tactile game - and this is usually what drives the player.

Shadows of the Damned can be played in a Singleplayer mode. Single Player Campaign games focus on one player's experience. Rather than collaborate with other players either locally or online, players progress alone. The campaign style of gameplay offers a connected series of challenges to play through. These chapters work together to tell a story through which players progress. Single player games are able to focus on one experience of a scenario, so that it is usually a richer, more visceral game.

Story Gamer review Mon, 11 Jul 2011

Shadows of the Damned 360 is a horror shooter filled with over the top violence and crude innuendo. Beneath the bluster though, there lies some surprising subtleties.

The obvious joke to make about Shadows of the Damned would be that any warnings about mature content are incorrect, because what it's actually loaded with is immature content. While in no way suitable for kids, a lot of Shadows of the Damned isn't really very adult either, instead taking an adolescent glee in references to sex and bodily functions.
