TopCow accidently confirms The Darkness 2

TopCow Comics has accidently confirmed that Starbreeze studios is working on a sequel for The Darkness, which was released in June this year. An employee from TopCow has accidently revealed to Dutch rapper 'Lycan-Strife' that Starbreeze is working on The Darkness 2 in secret, for next-generation consoles.

The Dutch rapper 'Lycan-Strife' has a good connection with TopCow and the Dutch rapper even made a tribute rap for The Darkness. A TopCow Comics employee then tipped 'Lycan-Strife' with the news that Starbreeze is working on The Darkness 2. 'Lycan-Strife' then reported the news to Dutch website Xbox360Only.

The sequel will arrive sometime around late 2008/early 2009, and will continue directly where The Darkness ended. No official confirmation has been given yet, but it seems pretty likely it will happen.

I think the only reason the first darkness did as well as it did was because it came out in a complete dry spell for both the 360 and ps3. This spring/early summer there were no new good games for either console so it had no competition. It was a decent game, but nothing to get excited about. I'll likely pass on the sequel.

Hope they use a better control because it was a masterpiece with buggy controls. Superb find and news. Hope it's true.

I did play the demo of the Darkness but I could not like it, the graphics were good but to me, the gameplay just felt kinda boring and iffy.

I've never understood why game/movie/television studios maintain this paranoid level of secrecy surrounding their projects. What difference does it make if people are aware that Starbreeze is working on the next installment of The Darkness, or that SCEA is working on the next chapter in the God of War franchise? Doesn't that build anticipation for the product? Were not talking about North Korean missile secrets here.

I don't get it.

19 - No thanks.

The first one was imo the biggest flop of 2007. What a letdown!

After making a masterpiece like Chronicles of Riddick, I expected a whole lot more from Starbreeze.

But all I got was a mediocre FPS with some lame powers and controls that just felt horrible! The story was pretty cool, but not enough to hold this title.

Nope, not all that excited for this one.

in all honestly I would rather see Starbreeze bring out a Sequel/Prequel to Chronicles of Riddick....that game was on another level....probably better than the Darkness...IMO
