GAME JOURNALS CONTAIN SPOILERS. DEAL WITH IT PINK BOY.
Yes, it's time once again for a video walkthrough / playthrough of another underappreciated gem. I know these aren't the most popular among my readership because they take ten uninterrupted minutes and can't be enjoyed at work, but they're the best way to share the experience that I know of.
Blood 1-1 Cradle to Grave
A playthrough (with my own uninformed commentary) of the opening level of Blood by Monolith Productions.
Please go vote for Blood at Good Old Games (go to http://www.gog.com/en/wanted and search for Blood) so that there will be an easy way for new gamers to enjoy this forgotten classic.
IdolNinja from the PA forums adds:
"The canisters [at around 4:30] are an homage to Phantasm, where the tall man reanimated the dead and compressed them into canisters so they could work as a slave force on a planet with lower gravity. The funeral home level is also eerily familiar."
