Was by far the best game of summer '07.

Good to see a sequel, wish it was Starbreeze, etc.

How far did you get in the end? See in the hell levels you have to eat the hearts or the soldiers keep getting up. Go back and finish it buffs, youre missing out on an amazing ending

The first game was alright but I wouldn't give it more than about 7/10. I can't remember the end being amazing either. Didn't it just black out when you got to the last mob guy?

Really good game. The atmosphere, story, writing and voice acting are second to none. The gunplay was weak and the gameplay never reached it's potential. The part near the end where you just watch as your character dismantles everyone and everything in first person felt like the developers saying 'this is want we wanted you to experience but we couldn't pull it off.'

Freakin' loved the first one, absolutely magical stuff. Shame about Starbreeze, but I'm still going to allow my hopes to be raised to frankly unrealistic levels for the sequel. Just 'cos.

Seeing this news has made me load up the original again
I've just checked the last time I played it - nearly 3 fuckin' years ago :lol: :fp:

I do have a good excuse for going through it again mind - When I completed it last time some stupid glitch meant I didn't get any of the achievements for completing it :x

If you like the idea of a FPS horror game set in the trenches of WWI then you should play Necrovision on the PC. It has it's flaws, but God knows The Darkness had plenty of those too. I've stated my opinion on The Darkness on here before so I won't go into too much detail, however I thought it was utterly, utterly average at best, with a woefully unsatisfying showdown. It was up there with Enclave as one of Starbreeze's worst games. Hopefully the sequel will be a better game.

Oh really? That's probably where I was going wrong, then :fp: I picked it up for £4, might give it another try some day.

Ah well. That was a long time ago. And how could anyone possibly **** up The Darkness? :shifty: I can't believe it's been a whole 3 years since the first game, though.

Has it really been 3 years? My now ex girlfriend bought this for me as a surprise present and I absolutely loved it. One of the best cut scenes in a video game in the original.

Yep. I'm always shocked and a little depressed when I play old 360 games and I see the last time I played it was all those years ago. Scary stuff. :(

These war sections are worst part of the original, seriously I never had any fun with them at all, in fact I pretty much rushed through these sections. Other than that though, Darkness is awesome game and I'd love more of it.

I found them well and truly creepy, which is why I rushed through them. They were good though, I thought.
