Another good fps by the makers of Riddick
The story is very impressive, you are a Mafia Hitman who on his 21st Birthday is taken over by the darkness and he uses this power to take down his old foster father, the head of the mafia family who is out get him as he messed up on a job he was set.
This game is pretty good, I love the darkness powers. You have 5 in all which you unlock throughout the game. These abilities only work in the darkness so you will have to shoot out all the lights if you wish to use them. The guns are pretty standard fps, the only difference is the darkness gun which honestly is very useful. The loading times are pretty bad in this game, every time you move from an area you get a little in game video of you character in a dark room talking to himself. These loading screens seem to be very frequent and seem to get the same few over and over so gets very tiresome. The multiplayer is ok but and I like how you can transform into a darkling, a little minion which you can control in the single player game. This is ok for a few games but will not hold your attention for a long time. The controls are standard First Person shooter, the primary and secondary fire is on the triggers, the darkness powers are on the bumpers and the rest is very standard.
The game looks good but it is nothing fantastic. The visuals are smooth and look very realistic but still doesn’t hold up to gears of war.
Overall this game is a good game but is no Riddick, The positives of the game is great story and amazingly useful powers. The minus points for this game would be excruciatingly frequent and long loading times.
