I never expected this game would finally hit PC (though I always wanted it to), even less expected for it to be given out free. For those that never heard of this game, it was an Xbox 360-exclusive title that can be summed up as "Super Metroid meets G.I. Joe written by Orson Scott Card" as you collect various hi-tech equipment while trying to stop an a organization called the Restoration trying to bring to their own idea of a new age for America as well as the world and they also kidnapped your girlfriend because video games. The game has obvious inspiration from Super Metroid as many of your upgrades resemble Samus' such as speedboosting, freezing mooks with some kind of crystalizing foam (then they can be shattered to pieces with explosives, figuratively speaking), a grappling hook that is akin to the Grappling Beam, a big world explore, a bunch of loot to collect, and more. It takes it also has some RPG elements where fighting goons gives you experience to level up your character and become a bigger badass for subsequent playthrough, as well as challenges to test your wits and abilities. The Remastered version aims to not only spruce up the visuals but also add more content to the game.
Here's a sample of the original Xbox 360 version. Don't have a decent gaming rig? No sweat, the game is coming to Xbone and PlayStation 4 as well, so finally the PlayStation crowd can get their hands it.
Though I reckon you get the PC version anyway in case you upgrade your hardware while it's free.Get the game here!
https://www.epicgames.com/shadowcomplex/Fair warning: the process can be lengthy to get the Epic Games Launcher installed to get the game; it took almost same amount of time of me writing this post while everything installs. I'll be back fam to let ya'll know how this game runs on my PC.
-EDIT-Welp, thanks to something on Epic's end — I'm assuming heavy traffic or somebody's not doing their job — I'm having problems trying to use the damn launcher, the game can't be run without it. To make matters worse, when I tried to reinstall the thing, it deleted my installation. This game really needs DRM removal or a GOG.com release ASAP.
