History in Games:
1999 - Shadow Man
2002 - Shadow Man: 2econd Coming
Overview:
Based on the comic books series, this short lived series following a legacy of individuals who take on the mantle of Shadow Man - a voodoo powered warrior fighting beings from the dead. Both were third person action titles that received reasonable receptions upon release but Activision was unable to push this into becoming a major franchise on a long term basis. Structurally the game followed the Mario 64 model of having players unlock levels by collecting items, this extended the lifespan of the title for players which was something reviewers weren't always keen to see as a positive.
