The Darkness Hands-on

The Darkness, of course, is different than Riddick or Alien. It's a comic book universe starring a really pissed off character who isn't an angel, but rather a mafia thug, a stone cold killer, who inherits this incredible power. But Starbreeze not only gets the comic book, it sucks in the comic's essence and exhales it into polygonal form with perfect clarify, direction, and style. If they gave awards for best opening sequences, Starbreeze would win every single time.

Nice. I'm looking forward to this, it looks good and now apparently it's "special"

"The levels looked and felt easy. I was assured that these first levels were designed to pump me up and make me feel good about myself. They were designed to introduce me to the controls and ease me into it the game. Later on, instead of a few patches of enemies here and there, you'll fight SWAT, FBI, and as host of bad guys that far outnumber you who learn about your strengths and weaknesses. They'll throw flashbangs, use flash lights, and use light as an enemy."

Sounds like mass chaos, SWEET! Can't wait to get some more info on this one.

This game looks sweet, the next gen took a year to really take off, but finially were starting to see interesting games such as this one.

biomajor096247d ago

I can't wait for this game. Even the website for the game kicks ass.

Martin6246d ago

this game and its storyline had kinda passed me by, I had read it was a comic book - but that was it pretty much.

But now, this does sound something special, it's good to play as the 'evil' aspect and this could furnish that in bucket loads. Heres hoping they put enough effort into the single player mode to really tempt me!

Sounds like a remaster of The Darkness game may be in the works

The CEO of Nightdive Studios has said in a tweet that the game is currently on the list for a modern update.

isarai235d ago

Oh I'm sold already, Nightdive does really solid remasters, and to this day I still love the darkness

Leeroyw235d ago

Mike Patton of Faith No More did the voice too. It was such a great game.

Quetzll235d ago

Had no idea and i absolutely love FNM and Patton. Gonna go back and play this game.

Snookies12235d ago

The Darkness was awesome! Here's hoping a remaster might lead to a new game!

RaidenBlack235d ago

Darkness 1 is coming to PC! .... OMG!

isarai235d ago

That honestly might be the biggest W here. Darkness with RTX would be neat to see

I_am_Batman235d ago

Excellent news. The Darkness is one of my all-time favorite games and the sequel is great too. I've just recently had a great time replaying them on my PS3. Unfortunately it's kinda hard to recommend them these days, because they're stuck on PS3 and 360 so a remaster would certainly be appreciated. Nightdive has been killing it lately.

DefenderOfDoom2235d ago

Awesome, I loved The Darkness made by Starbreeze who a lot them are now developers at Machine Games . Yes , again thank you Nightdive !

Dagexon234d ago

Now I'm hoping they remaster more of starbreeze's games. Namely the chronicles of riddick games

DefenderOfDoom2234d ago

Chronicles of Riddick Escape from Butcher Bay , is one my favorite gaming experience I ever had . Great game .!

ModsDoBetter235d ago

Excellent games.
Recently ran through The Darkness 2 on PS3 again.

I hated the switch in style when it first came out but they're both amazing games.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad588d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g588d ago (Edited 588d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
