Join John Linneman and Audi Sorlie as they break open a vintage 2000 sealed copy of Shiny Entertainment's Messiah. Lauded in its day for its groundbreaking tech, but not exactly renowned for classic gameplay, DF Retro revisits the game on period appropriate PC hardware.

n-Space's Geist for Gamecube shares pretty much the same possession mechanic. But it's way more creative since you have to scare the victims with fun puzzles and tricks.



I'd say it was a mix of Shiny's Messiah, Midway's Psi-Ops and Volition's Red Faction.

Shiny also developed the waaaaaaaaaaaaay better (than Enter the Matrix) Path of Neo, the famous Playstation 2 normal-maps game. Probably the first game ever developed that let you tweak the game's shading. Also probably the hardest tutorial ever seen in a videogame (far more difficult than Driver -if you want to unlock the hardest difficulty-).

I remember this game I never got a chance to play it how was it?

I beat this game back in the day. I remember it being very janky and buggy but quite unique for its time.
