· Apr 24, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review- Tak isto ako pred viac než dekádou je aj dnes Shadow of the Damned predovšetkým šialenou jazdou v pekelnom prostredí. Nič viac a nič menej. Podobných kúskov vo svojej zbierke nenapočítate toľko, aby ste Hella Remastered mohli prehliadať. Len to musí byť vaša krvná skupina, inak bude pre vás táto prerábka iba ďalším zbytočným remasterom, ktorý netušíte pre koho je vlastne určený. Za zníženú cenu však pôjde lákavé sústo pre pamätníkov pôvodnej hry, ktorí kúpou neprehlúpia.
kordi · Nov 26, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Shadows of the Damned Hella Remastered is a gleefully stupid action game full of dick jokes, which you'll either find refreshing or horrendous.
Lyle Pendle · Nov 14, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - All in all, I commend Grasshopper Manufacture for coming up with this re-release, giving this underappreciated (and deeply flawed) cult hit another chance to shine, but be aware it has aged quite a bit.
Leo Faria · Nov 05, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is a great excuse to experience the simple, crude, and bombastic joys of a proper cult classic, even if its writing and humour feel thoroughly out of place in today's day and age.
Shubhankar Parijat · Nov 04, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - No hay grandes novedades y su aspecto técnico podría haberse mejorado un poco más, pero con su peculiar sentido del humor intacto y a precio reducido, Shadows of the Damned sigue siendo una compra más que recomendable.
William Van Dijk · Nov 04, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Un po' No More Heroes, un po' cugino povero di Resident Evil 4, Shadows of the Damned era un titolo peculiare e di grande personalità, che mancava però nel comparto più importante, ovvero quello del gameplay. Se tredici anni fa si poteva passare sopra più facilmente ad uno shooting impreciso e ad una telecamera che proprio non voleva saperne di collaborare, oggi, dopo aver giocato tanti sparatutto in terza persona di grande qualità, si fatica molto di più.
Gianluca Arena · Oct 31, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is a great version of the original that offers limited but welcome updates such as resolution increases, faster load times and a much requested New Game+ mode. The unique grindhouse aesthetic and over the top humour remains as distinctive as they always were and it is here that the appeal of Shadows of the Damned lives or dies. If the absurd humour and over the top ideas are your cup of blood then this is an easy recommend even if you don’t have nostalgic memories of the original. Get ready to grab your Johnson and kill some demons.
Steve C · Oct 30, 2024 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered brings Suda51’s cult classic to new life with enhanced visuals, a darkly humorous narrative, and intense demon-slaying action. The remaster preserves the original’s unique style while adding some welcome refinements. Although the combat can be repetitive, the game’s atmospheric puzzles, challenging boss encounters, and compelling underworld setting make for an unforgettable journey through hell. Garcia Hotspur’s quest to rescue his girlfriend, Paula, pushes both him and players to their limits, and the result is a devilishly entertaining experience that fans of the genre will appreciate.
Azario Lopez · Oct 30, 2024 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is just as offbeat and captivating as it was when it originally came out 13 years ago. The story works partially because of how it isn't afraid to be funny and gross, and the lack of malice sells the game, even if the humor doesn't strike a chord for some people. The gameplay is fine enough that the rough edges can be ignored at times. It sounds just as good as before and looks much better, but one can't help wishing that more care had been taken to create something more than a barebones port of the original.
