The Darkness 2 was entertaining but not quite there.
The Darkness 2 was a pretty enjoyable game. The fighting was fun and the story did pull you along for the most part. The combat had a few major flaws. It became repetitive and boring after awhile and began to drag on. O... Read Full Review

My Darkness 2 review
Having played the demo, I knew experiencing the full game was a must. This game is bloody and full of shooting action. After tapping into Jackie's dark powers, it dawns on you that this game is quite different than most ... Read Full Review

Interesting concept, but suffers from lack of variety.
In this game you play as a mob boss possessed by an evil force called the Darkness, which gives him supernatural powers, but only when he is in the dark. Naturally, there are people who want to get their hands on that po... Read Full Review

There's nothing special about The Darkness II, but it still manages to offer a gripping story and plenty of gore.
Dwelling within the shadows, The Darkness was a sleeper hit upon its release in 2007. During the crowded Halo/Gears of War/Call of Duty shooter era, seeing a new shooter franchise rising to center stage was odd. Even odd... Read Full Review

Good story, lots of options during combat but terrible and inappropriate cell shaded graphics. A decent rental.
I rented Darkness 2 as a result of boredom and an easy trophy list. Fortunately it was actually a decent game that I enjoyed playing. It's a short game that tells a simple but effective, dark and fairly compelling st... Read Full Review

A unique thrill ride. One you'll be glad to be part of.
This game is simply fun! I never had a chance to play the first Darkness, but I sure wish I had now! It's hard to describe how I truly felt while playing this game. The demons and the finishing moves made me say, "Oh my ... Read Full Review

"The Darkness II" is gory fun, but it's way too short.
"The Darkness II" is a short game. It includes a 6-hour campaign and a few online cooperative missions. Despite the lack of content, fans should have a blast with it. I rented it and beat the story mode in two sittings. ... Read Full Review
