Acclaimed developer: The Darkness was developed by Starbreeze, the team behind the award-winning The Chronicles of Riddick™: Escape from Butcher Bay.
Faithful adaptation: The game story was written in collaboration with acclaimed comic-book author, Paul Jenkins, and it's based on the comic book The Darkness, created by Top Cow.
Intense action: Experience extremely intense cinematic action in this gritty, first-person, action-adventure game with a horror twist: You are the horror!
Lurking horror: Varying manifestations of the Darkness allow you to devour, impale, or implode your enemies. Cannibalize the corpses of your slain victims to level up your powers.
Shadowy evil: The absence of light feeds and replenishes the Darkness so seek the shadows wherever possible.
Dark environments: Fight your way through the dark and seedy underbelly of New York City as well as the ethereal realm of the Darkness.
I have NO IDEA how anyone can give this game 5 stars! there are 25 FPS games that you can play that are much better than this game. Terribly unbalanced. I felt that the controls were far too "loose." The powers are pretty cool and the achievements are easy to get but that's it!

Surprisingly Good
Remarkable game with a surprisingly good story. Great graphics and art work. The idea of darkness behind the game is very creative and well used. A must have under 30 dollars

Amazing game
This is one of the few games that manage to make a good gameplay and a great history of a comic book. You travel like Jack Estacado, and it is not a weekend pic-nic, it's a way straight to Hell and taking the bad guys with you is the only choice.
