Shadows of the Damned is so five minutes ago. Now Shadows of the Damned 2 – which may or may not ever exist – that’s where it’s at. Or it will be. You know, if it ever gets there. See, it all depends on you. That’s right: in this single shining instance, you are important. Well, if you don’t count every other gamer in existence, anyway.
