Worth the wait? by: aksoby ?2012 Kent Sobey Try and try as you may, you can't keep The Darkness at bay. Well, it's been 2 years since Jackie managed to subdue The Darkness and start to rebuild his life but it's back, and this time it's looking to take over completely.

The Darkness II takes place 2 years after the events of the first Darkness game. Villain protagonist Jackie Estacado wields "The Darkness," a not-so-nice entity that thrives in -- guess where -- the darkness, granting him murderous tendrils, an underling that does his bidding and regeneration powers...

The Darkness II on Xbox 360 is a thriller FPS game that is loud, creepy and filled with memorable characters. In this review we'll uncover what The Darkness II has to offer and breakdown both the good and the bad.

To be honest, the original Darkness sat on my shelf unplayed for more than three years. Amazon.com gave it away for free with the purchase of BioShock back in late 2007 and I snapped it up. Since I was going to buy BioShock anyway, why not get a freebie, right?

The thing that most stayed with me after discovering all that The Darkness II had to offer was surprising. It wasn't the ultra violence (although that's pretty affecting to begin with). It wasn't the excellent voice acting (but that effortlessly brings the characters to life).

I bought this game during a sale with two other games during a weekend sale and I am very glad that I chose this as the third game. Here are my reasons - wheeee Story: Darkness 2 continues after Darkness 1 and quickly puts you into the shoes of Jackie, a troubled love-sick-possessed-Italian-American...

Playing through The Darkness was an absolute joy, well maybe with the exception of the multiplayer, thanks to a mix of guns, supernatural powers, crazy little minions, creepy visits to the realm of The Darkness, an amazing story, and a bucket load of blood that left us wanting more.

Great story, Awesome combat, The cell-shading style really makes you feel like you're in a living breathing comic book, but ; .

; ; ; at times it feels a little bit cheap and nasty, The main game is far too short, You can only posses The Darkling twice in the entire game

I played the first Darkness and loved this sequel. The story line was great, graphics and characters excellent. The only reason I give 4 stars rather than 5 is a because it was quite short, which was a real shame. A great game!!
