I'm going to say it here, Eternal Darkness is a reason in itself to get a gamecube. If you have not played this game, your life is not complete. Perhaps the greatest survival horror game ever made, as well as one of the greatest games ever made. One of the few games I could legitimately call 'perfect'.

Get it, and die happy.

A sequel is needed, post haste.
Do you think it is OK to judge everyone who doesn't respond to this topic? Or would that be terrible? *puts on thinking hat*

Just poking around on Wikipedia and found this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_Darkness:_Sanity's_Requiem
Regarding the possibility of a sequel! :)
Not sure why it won't post the whole link? Ideas?
Well this bit is the important bit
''Denis Dyack, designer of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem and Too Human, said "absolutely yes" in July 2006 regarding the question of a possible sequel in his Too Human IGN blog. He stated that Silicon Knights intended for Eternal Darkness to be a stand-alone game, but the company has always intended to make more games set in the Eternal Darkness universe involving the Ancients.[33][34]
At Microsoft's Spring 2008 Showcase in San Francisco, Dyack confirmed to TVG that a return to the Eternal Darkness brand could be on the cards: "There is a chance; we love all the games we work on. We don't want to be pigeon-holed [into a genre], we want to be known for strong content...There's a strong chance we'll return to it, but there's no announcements yet."''
From Wikipedia, obviously.

I idn't find it scary at all. It was just a fun little game with a different style of play than most of the games I have and it made it interesting.

I think I got spoilered on all the scary bits though and thta's probalby why I wasn't freaked out though hte bathroom scene... meh that didn't scare me at all I kind of laughed a little.

Now I want to plaly it. I didn't manage to beat it. Only ran through it once and got to the boss but couldn't beat him.


I dont have the game with me but this spring break I'll bring it up.

Eternal Darkness... I never played it.

But Heart of Darkness. Now that was a game. Does anybody remember that?

Great game. Definitely part of my top 10 of all time. It was one of those games where every time you play through it you notice some detail that you didn't notice before.

Awesome game.

I am torn between thinking it works awesome as a stand alone game and sometimes it is better to be left wanting more. For that very reason though I would like another game because the last one left me wanting more. Conundrum. Silicon Knights would have to massively up their game though. A simple case of more of the same wouldn't cut it.

ive played it, beat it at least twice, still have it and obviously remember it. very cool game. i'd buy a sequel for sure, but the first game is enough for me if they never make a sequel.

It was pretty great, although the insanity effects didn't really fool me more than once or twice, perhaps. They should have included more believable "technical difficulties", ones not designed for specific TV huds. It could have done a lot more with audio, "changed the channel" and play a part of some movie, etc.
Effects affecting the game itself would have worked better too, perhaps by creating completely fake levels, bugs, etc.

Yes, I've played it. It was quite the mind fuck. I'd love the chance to play it again.
As for a sequel, no I don't think it needs one. Perhaps another game done in the same style with the same formula (a spiritual sequel maybe), but I think an actual sequel would only ruin it.
