Classic Review - Shadow Warrior

In this review, I look at the rather silly first-person shooter Shadow Warrior, made by 3D Realms (makers of Duke Nukem).

do you need a dos-box for the demo?

[DWTerminator]

Well, Shadow Warrior is a weird title. You can generally run it in Windows and it'll work, but not optimally (the sound tends to be off). Running it in DOSBox tends to produce the best results.

Very nice review. SW was one of my first games and I keep returning to it. You can get much much better graphics with the JonoF's patch (just google jonof).

[DWTerminator]

Glad you liked it, and yes, SW is amazing.

I might check that patch out actually.

have you played blood?

[DWTerminator]

Not yet, but it's on GoG now so I'll pick it up when possible.

I deleted one? To be honest I can't remember, but if I did it was probably superfluous (sometimes people accidentally post twice) or abusive. You may have encountered a YouTube bug or something as well.

In any case, I didn't delete your post about the game being serious.
