So go ahead and pop
in Eternal Darkness for the GameCube and watch your mind slowly retreat into itself to hide from whatever you're about to see on the screen.
I've played a lot of the other games on this list and they're all surely scary and frightening in their own ways, but nothing will ever come close to the self - questioning uncertainty and simple sense of being uncomfortable that came
from Eternal Darkness.
Again, Nintendo's
Eternal Darkness trademark renewal may be nothing more than the company protecting their properties, however more news could potentially arrive with the upcoming launch of the Nintendo Switch.
I was talking about Nintendo bringing back old IPs for example give us a new Star Fox, a new F - Zero, a new
Eternal Darkness game etc..

Few people associate any Nintendo console with the mature horror genre, which is probably
why Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem flew under the radar of so many players.
The developer of
Eternal Darkness successor Shadow of the Eternals has attempted to dismiss much of the criticism it has received.

Eternal Darkness first began its life on the Nintendo 64, and was even prominently showed off by Nintendo at E3 and other gaming conventions.
It's been a while since the last Call of Cthulu title, and longer still since the masterfully
chilling Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem.
And Denis Dyack comes out alongside the reborn ashes of Factor 5 and the two
announce Eternal Darkness 2 and a new Rogue Squadron.
What
sets Eternal Darkness above other horror games is the way you play through multiple characters» doomed stories.
Dyack has been accused of diverting resources and personnel away from X-Men Destiny to work on a
botched Eternal Darkness 2 pitch, which he fervently denies, but Silicon Knights collapsed following a despicable attempt to sue Epic Games despite stealing Unreal Engine code wholesale.

Never have I ever felt so uncomfortable playing a game as I did when I first played Silicon Knight's devilishly deceptive and
maddening Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem.

In summary, I would say that the gamepay and combat is basically Resident Evil in all but name, but the psychological parts might offer a fresh twist to the genre that we haven't seen
since Eternal Darkness.
Well, the feature that
makes Eternal Darkness unique, is the fact that depending on the level of your sanity meter, the game's camera angle becomes skewed and the player starts to hear whispers and other unsettling noises.
Mediocre tripe like Geist and Donkey Konga felt like they had a niche to appeal to and Nintendo helped fund some of the generations most memorable games,
namely Eternal Darkness.
