This game is very original since not many games have a concept of dieing and then going back in time to change your fate. It is about this guy who's life is saved by Houmonculus who needs the red stone and so he saves your life. You get many chances, but the worst thing is that you can only save at the end of the chapter and so if you mess up, you have to do all the things you've already done all over.
This Game Is Great!

You will never want to let go of the controller when you play Shadow of Destiny. It is one of the best games for PS2. If you are interested in difficult games that have more than one ending. You're in luck. Playing this game will make you think of what lies ahead in your life will tomorrow be your last day of life?
Visually appealing but leaves much to be desired.

I bought this game after reading the rave reviews and must say, at the risk of sounding picky, that I found the game left much to be desired. The graphics, music, and sound are quite magnificent but the story is disjointed at best and rather insulting to the intelligence. I finished this game in less than two days just through casual play. To be frank I found the ending so hokey-pokey that I had no desire to play the game again to see what other endings there might be. The voice-overs were better than average but many were just plain silly and the dialogue unecessary. I would have given this game three and half stars but unfortunately I didn't have the option. If you are new video games and enjoy visual stimulation without much substance than you will enjoy this game. This reviewer was drawn in at the very beginning but was left wanting more.
GREAT GAME!!

I think that this game is great. Granted it took me a little while in the beginning to really figure out how to avoid my imminent demise, once I got the hang of it, it actually went pretty fast. It's also better if you know all the shortcuts and exactly what to do. I would recommend this game to anyone who is into this type of play.
What a Game!!!

This game it's great, i really like the graphics, the sound, everything. Maybe it's a little short but, come on, the story it's very interesting and the way it's solved the mistery it's just fantastic, so i don't regret having this game.
A fun murder mystery game

Initial word of mouth on this game is that it played like the Resident Evil games. Not really. This is like an interactive story where your decisions based on time travel influence foreseen incidences of your death. Once I started playing this, I was definitely drawn into it with each chapter that I completed. If you like decision-based storyline games, definitely try this game out.
Wow but oh????????

The whole idea of this game is just amazing. I find the story captivating. Really the only complaints i have is 1) the voice acting is terrible to the point of funny and 2) Most of the game is just a movie. I mean when i buy a game i want to play not sit and watch. Would i buy this game....probaly not, would i rent this game or borrow it from a friend ..DEFINATLY
Great Game!!!!

When I bought this game, I just knew it was goin to be good. And I was right!!! The graphics are breath taking and soooo wonderful!!!! There are multiple ways the story line can go, which makes the re-playability awesome. In this game you can go back and change your own destiny, even change the way the town looks. There are a lot of cut scences in this one, but that didnt bother me one bit because the graphics were so beatiful! The town is excellently designed, awesome motion, the people really look and move like people. The game is a bit easy, because there are so many clues given it pretty much tells you what you have to do, in order to change your destiny. But it is really fun and I am enjoying every bit of the game. My suggestion is to go and get yourself a copy, you wont regret it.
Great Game

This is by far the best PS2 game I have. When I first saw this game and learned the objective I thought it sounded pretty interesting. Then I bought and played it, and got completely consumed with it. Once you start it's virtually impossible to stop. The game is fairly easy to master (maily because the game helps you out or gives you clear clues). Probably the best part about it is that it's like a live action book that enables you to change numerous events in order to change the past or the present. If your interested in getting a game that holds your attention until you complete it, this is the game for you.
