Story:Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is a psychological horror action adventure, released in 2002 by Nintendo for the Gamecube. It tells the stories of twelve characters that span across the world and two millennia who have to deal with ancient forces of evil which have been trying to manifest themselves in our world. Chapters take place in Ancient Rome, Persia, the Middle East, and modern-day Rhode Island. Throughout the game, the protagonists will have access to several weapons appropriate for their era, from bastard sword & gladius to flintlock pistol and shotgun.
The game features an involved Magic system, which allows different spells to be created through the combination of runes. These spells can attack enemies, dispel illusions, and heal both the body and items.
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem also has a unique feature called Sanity. If an enemy sees a character, their Sanity meter drops. When Sanity gets low, hallucinations begin to plague the character. Walls bleed, voices whisper from nowhere, the camera gets disoriented. Sanity can be restored by dealing a finishing move on a dying enemy, or with spells or some items.Show more

This is one of the best cosmic horror games created, played it first time on the game cube, and sure the scares that are implemented in the game were made for a different era of technology, so might not be as affecting, but your character suddenly losing their head is still a great hitter. The story spans over several characters different perspective, all leading back to the horror of bing nothing more than a pane in the games of goods
This was one of the few GC-Titles i had back in the days, since i started at the university and had not too much spare money for games. I got lucky getting this one used and played it in the winter evenings and sometimes got really frightened. A gem on the GameCube i´d love to be experienced by a bigger audience.
I bought Eternal Darkness along with Resident Evil Remake back in 2002 and really wish that the former which is only on GameCube could one day come to gog.com.This game's sanity effects and spells along with it's story make it a masterpiece.
I played this shortly after release (probably, or at least within a year or so). I never beat the game but this was during my first "gaming hobby" phase of my life. I used a guide to get through the part of the game I did get.
I doubt Nintendo will ever let this happen and this game is probably in legal limbo due to the whole Silicon Knights lawsuit with Epic Games and coupled with the company's bankruptcy.
I can dream.
This is easily one of my favorite horror games from that era. I would love to see this slightly updated, so that some of the horror elements were translated better on PC. Those of you who have played it know exactly what I'm referring to and are laughing at the thought. On top of which, the story and sense of dread in this game were spectacular.
A friend recommended me this game and it quickly became one of my favorite games for the gamecube. The sanity effects were great and would constantly look for new ways to trigger them. I would love to play this game on the PC and share those moments with my kids.
One of the wildest horror games of all time, designed with a sanity meter that would cause all sorts of weirdness to happen as it ran low. And there's nothing like getting halfway through a game to see it stop and "format your memory card", request a nonexistent disk 2 or announce a second half due next summer. Other games have attempted to mess with the player since but never to the same degree or with the same degree of success as Eternal Darkness. This game is an icon and its nonsense will always stay with me.
This game was the first time I ever fell so completely in love with a game that I would play it over and over again. The way it plays with you as the player, fooling you into thinking your controller is broken or someone sat on the mute button - It's just exquisite game design. The story is fantastic, and the magic system is superb. I need this game on GOG.
Eternal Darkness is an incredibly underrated gem unfortunately trapped in the GameCube library. It's by far one of my favorite games in the genre, not to mention one of my favorite on the system.
Nintendo simply doesn't care about it and leaves it getting dust in some corner for everyone not to play. I hope GOG can save this one.

Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.Trending Action Horror Science fiction Stealth Survival Mystery
