  • Abstract:  Based on the comic book of the same name, The Darkness is from the same crowd that brought us Chronicles of Riddick, one of the original Xboxs best and most underrated games. Definitely not one for the squeamish, thanks to the amount of blood spilled ...

  • Abstract:  You have to feel sorry for Jackie Estacado. On the night he celebrates his 21st birthday he gets possessed by some supernatural power that is hellbent on revenge. Based on the comic book of the same name, The Darkness (Xbox 360) is from the same crowd ...

  • Abstract:  A First Person Shooter, that may be the genre the latest offering from Starbreeze Studios falls into but there is no doubt there is a lot more to the game than just shooting from a first-person view. In fact, just like their 2004 effort, The Chronicles...

  • Movielike production, Great storyline, Innovative use of special powers, Well paced with fast and slow gameplay
  • Aiming can be dodgy, Darklings don’t always respond as they should
  • Mixed amongst the fighting segments and the many objectives is the narrative driven storyline, which is told through a mixture of conversations with characters and the lead characters own reflections on his life and his future, told through monologues...

  • Not just guns, graphics
  • guys we encountered playing on medium level (there are three difficulty levels in total) werent too clever and unlike some games where they flush you out - here they just wait for you to come charging. That combined with the demonic powers means The D...

  • Abstract:  Starbreeze Studios are one talented bunch of developers and there’s no two ways about that. They were one of the first game developers who actually debunked the myth that all movie-based games are crappy. In fact they managed to turn a crappy movie...

  • Stellar graphics; ubercool Darkness powers; excellent story.
  • Short play time; dumb enemies; lacklustre multiplayer mode.
  • There are few comics out there that are as gritty and violent as The Darkness. Not be confused with the English rock band of the same name, The Darkness is an on going comic series from Top Cow that has been around since the mid 1990s.The Darkness the ...

  • Abstract:  The Darkness är spelet som tar dig ner i New Yorks undre värld. Där måste du konfrontera dina motståndare i en fantastiskt välgjord urban miljö.

  • Abstract:  Hade du velat fira din tjugoettårsdag med hetsätande bläckfiskarmar på en skitig mugg strax efter att din farbror velat spränga dig i bitar? Det ville förmodligen inte vår huvudperson Jackie Estacado heller. Men man får inte alltid som man vill... Jack...

  • Abstract:  Det är alltid lite extra att recensera spel som är utvecklade i Sverige. Inte bara för att utvecklarna faktiskt kan läsa testerna och sedan komma och hälsa på med sitt baseballträ. Nej, jag skämtar bara. Det som är saken är att som spelpatriot v...
