Video Games : The Darkness |
- good choicethe game was pretty good. to be honest i expected more of it. but it had the mob type gun slinging fun witch i enjoyed but it really took to long and nothing really exciting ever happened and you expected it to be more exciting and the end of the game was kinda lame but maybe they plan on making a darkness 2. either way i enjoyed the game and for the price here on amazon it was a good choice but i will definitely trade it in to the next game stop for something new after beating the game.

- Surprisingly SatisfyingMy expectations were fairly low on this game, even though it was was recommended to me by a friend. Playing through this game is turning out to be a great experience.
The story itself is so-so. The mafia-based struggle is the real driving force and plays out well. But, the whole Darkness conflict seems to fall apart the more I think about it. The Darkness can control him, but it can't? If you don't think about it too much, it works fairly well.
The voice acting is top notch. If the on-screen presentation of said acting was better, the atmosphere would have really benefited tons.
The gameplay is very reminiscent of Condemned, but without the crime-solving. I say this in a good way, as I don't think there is much more they could have done to improve this aspect.
Overall, a very solid game with a lot of well polished features. There is a lot to like about this game, and the stuff I do point out is just me being over-critical of it. I thoroughly recommend this.

- Surprisingly GoodI was pleasantly surprised at how good this game really was for such a low price; got it for $10 + SH. Great story, great powers, and some parts are really creepy. Recommending to anyone I know with a 360.

- Good for a playthough and some achievementsAlthough I have nothing against this game really I dont see myself playing it throuhg more than once. For the purchase price of $4.98 I couldn't pass it up. As far as gameplay, design, graphics, etc...all that is fine. I'm just not into the plot or storyline. The Darkness powers do add a cool element to the game. This game is a good rental or purchase if you can get it for cheap like I did.

- Pretty goodThis game was good but I can't take it into the great category. I enjoyed using The Darkness' powers. My biggest issues happen in certain levels when you go into an alternate universe and your fighting Nazis. These levels sometimes got really dark and confusing. It was hard to tell where you were supposed to go sometimes and frustrating because you couldn't see who was shooting at you half the time either. A lot of this seems to fade away when you start gaining abilities like impaling unsuspecting mobsters with your darkness tentacles or picking up a parked car and throwing it at a group of scumbags across the street. Still, something was just lacking from this game. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it and felt it was worth my time.
