PS3 Fanboy writes: "Good grief, where did all these games come from? There's a lot to choose from, especially if you're in the US or Europe. Despite the quantity, there's not a huge amount of overall quality. The only games in the list worth looking at are Overlord, Bourne and Battlefield. Don't be downhearted, Asians. You've finally got your hands on The Darkness. Only a year late, then. Here's the full release list:"
US Games
* Battlefield: Bad Company
* Top Spin 3
* Wall-E
* Hellboy: Science of Evil
* Overlord: Raising Hell
* Hail to the Chimp
EU Games
* Battlefield: Bad Company
* Beijing 2008: The Official Olympics Game
* The Bourne Conspiracy
* Guitar Hero: Aerosmith
* Kung Fu Panda
* NASCAR 09
Asian Games
* Enemy Territory: Quake Wars
* The Darkness
With the franchise’s mainline entries failing to find their footing in recent years, now is the perfect time for a Battlefield: Bad Company remake.
Of course there is no counter argument. This is what fans of the franchise have wanted for years. This and/or BF Bad Company 2.
When asked why there hasn't been another Bad Company:
“There's one thing that lingers with Bad Company that we've been asking ourselves: What is it that the people really liked about Bad Company?" DICE general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson told Eurogamer.
Troedsson says that he and his team can’t put their fingers on what it is that people loved about that branch of the brand. “It's hard for people to articulate what that is, which is actually hard for us,” he says. “It would be hard to remake something like that. Can we do it? Of course. We have our theories when it comes to the multiplayer."

I always activate the Black Weapon on BFV Solomon Islands for all the BC2 fans who hear/recognize it, thus starting the events of BC2 on BF5 :)
Derrrunnn. Derrrunnn.
What is so hard to understand for them?
Bad Company 2 is one of the best and most memorable games in the series because:
- It was class-based (duh)
- Heavy focus on squads
- Substance over map size or gimmicks
- Fantastic and realistic gun play
- Well designed maps
- Destructible environments (why has this been minimised so hard in the series? You could demolish buildings in bad company 2 with some well placed C4
- Great progression system and variety in play
- No stupid CoD imitations or focus on the store over the game
- It was *drumroll* incredibly good fun?
- It was unmistakably BATTLEFIELD
The CEO of Nightdive Studios has said in a tweet that the game is currently on the list for a modern update.
Oh I'm sold already, Nightdive does really solid remasters, and to this day I still love the darkness
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.
Awesome, I loved The Darkness made by Starbreeze who a lot them are now developers at Machine Games . Yes , again thank you Nightdive !
Now I'm hoping they remaster more of starbreeze's games. Namely the chronicles of riddick games
Chronicles of Riddick Escape from Butcher Bay , is one my favorite gaming experience I ever had . Great game .!
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.
Licensed games are all rubbish, right? Well, THQ's take on Disney/Pixar’s Wall*E would like to argue that point.
Took me a min to figure out this is a review of a 2008 game. I love Wall*E and this looks interesting so added it to my Steam wishlist. Thanks!
ohh wow asia is just getting the darkness? its been out for a long time now.
Yeah. All the whingey buggers in Europe annoy me with their "we don't get games" crap.
WE don't get games, either. It takes freaking forever, and they cost just as much as yours do. Bad Company isn't out till August. Metal Gear is about 50 Euros at most places.
a few hours ago.
Upon casually browsing the games section, I noticed they were selling The Darkness for a cool $18 and change!
Having first played it (and having enjoyed it) near its release, I thought to myself, "Now THAT'S a deal!"
BTW: For those interested, this is Wal-Mart Canada
There aren't any games coming out worth paying $59.99 for, plus, I'm still playing MGS4 for a second time and trying to get Foxhound and/or Fox Rank.
If you`re a online gamer BattleField is a must!!!
