Shadow Warrior

Shadow warrior has elements that Duke doesn't, however. You can drive tanks, forklifts, boats and several other vehicles as you roll over your enemies (where several gibs fly all over the place). The carnage in this game is amazing as you hack with your katana (Oh, look! Split personality), use twin uzis and even an atomic bomb (It is good day to die).

And did I forget to mention the anime women who all have their own insulting reasons they won't talk to you (I don't think my mother would approve is about the nicest thing they say)?

Also, later in the game you get to take over a destroyer long enough to launch a couple of missles (Tora, Tora, Tora)!

The humor is high, the violence is amazing and the story isn't bad. If you love the orient, Duke Nukem 3D and sarcasm... this game is for you!

For the time period it was released, this game is totally awsome and I still play it to this day. The multiplayer is fun also when you have computers linked up thru IPX network. I played the demo out for a month and finally went out and bought the game. It has a good storyline and is fun to play and I recommend you purchase this classic, look at the price...get it now!

Shadow Warrior is an amazingly fun game to play. Using the old Duke Nukem 3D engine, it looks kind of dated now, but Lo Wang himself more than makes up for this. Using a variety of fun weapons, such as his katana, uzis (up to 2 at once), nuclear missiles, fire-spewing heads of decapitated enemies, and so on, this samurai is trying to avenge the murder of his master. Don't look for a whole lot of plot development, that's not the point.

This is the funniest game ever. There are witty retorts for every situation, weapon, and enemy...However, even on easy mode, this game can be remarkable hard because it doesn't take much to kill Lo. Other than the basic enemies, almost everyone can kill you real fast in a one-on-one, and when you run out of ammo, it auto switches, usually unfortunately to an explosive weapon. Prepare to save a lot.

Even so, I definitely recommend this game. It's a classic masterpiece.

Bought this game hoping that it would be Duke Nukem does Kung Fu. It *sort of* is. It doesn't play nearly as smoothly on a Mac (strange, since it supposedly has the same engine), and just isn't as funny and silly. Still, a pretty good game. I play it every now and then, but I still play Duke Nukem a lot. If you love Duke, you'll probably like this.


Shadow Warrior an ok game   December 5, 1999

Shadow Warrior is a fairly good game, it uses the tried and true Duke Nukem engine. I really enjoyed this game because I am into Kung Fu flicks. The game is a very gory game, for example when you have defeated an enemy he puts his gun into his mouth and shoots himself. You also have some awesome weapons at your disposal including a katana(which you always have at your disposal),a riot gun, a rail gun, ninja stars, grenades, and a rocket launcher. You are also able to ride some vechiles, including a fork lift and a boat mounted with uzis. I really enjoyed the game. If you enjoyed Duke Nukem I would recomend getting this game.
