Feb 8, 2012The Darkness II
Beatiful story, graphics are kinda okay, I liked the previous one more, but it fits to the game.
It's really bloody which I like and violent, yumee, yumee. -

Sep 3, 2012This game is awesome :D better to play with friends! Great for anyone who loves fps games with a twist. I think this games score was rated to low at least an 8.5 would be good. The only thing I can say was that the game was too short

Sep 9, 2012I absolutely loved the first Darkness, developed by Starbreeze. The Darkness 2 absolutely matches the amazingness of the first game. The Darkness 2 is an absolutely phenomenal game in every way. The only nitpick I have is that its a bit short(I beat it in 6.8 hours), but my god it was so good I don't even care. BUY THIS GAME! 10/10!

Jul 17, 2012Very good game! The story is great and the storytelling is even better! I simply love the concept of the Darkness! It reminds me somehow of Darksiders (another great game).
All of the mind shifts that your character is going through makes you wander what's real and whats not (in the world of the game ofc.)
The game itself is for me mix of Max Payne and Darksiders! I highly recommend! -

Aug 21, 2014Pretty good graphics, fun gunfights, good performance, little to no bugs, decent amount of content - worth buying. I enjoyed this game and recommend to those interested in a story driven first person shooter.

Aug 4, 2022Es como si fueras venom del universo Marvel, sólo que con mucho plomo, una historia que abarca realidades y fuera de trepar muros o bien, volar por edificios.

Mar 14, 2012I am not a big fan of games adapted from comics, but I really loved playing this game. The action makes fun, even if the game is really brutal. I enjoyed the large variety of levels, the graphics, the sound and the style which suite the game. This is nice and fresh compared to many other games. I think the only thing is disliked is the really small FOV.

Jul 17, 2012Pure and streamlined fun. If you're like me and can sometimes have a short attention span for games, The Darkness II is absolutely perfect in pitch and pace. The story, though not airtight, is extremely compelling and gameplay is smooth and fast paced. I think I beat it on the hardest difficulty available in about seven hours. Real good time and worth the ten bucks I paid for it.

Feb 12, 2012It only lasts six hours. However, in those six hours you get more action, more intense combat, and more mindf*cks than any other modern shooter out there. Also if the small FoV seriously ruins a gaming experience for you, I just feel sorry for you. Stop whining. The rest of the game is ported fine.

Aug 15, 2019Very fun action FPS. Fast and smooth gameplay with some nice art and sound. The story held me even though it’s bit one note. Overall it’s well worth playing in 2019.

Feb 13, 2012The Darkness II - a great game, which takes place in one breath. But, like any other, it has its drawbacks. On them I will not write, because I consider them minor. I am pleased that the game is short, it has added the desire to play in the next, the third part. I put a solid game nine. Have more to such a dynamic and bloody shooters.

Apr 22, 2012The Darkness II is a decent shooter, but there is nothing in it that is amazing; it's respectable but mostly predictable.
-
Apr 12, 2012The Darkness II is indeed short, but it does achieve part of its goals: a few fun hours for a rainy spring afternoon, with some interesting characters, a dark story and, most of all, two demonic arms always hungry for beating hearts.

Mar 13, 2012Exhilarating in its opening sequence, The Darkness 2 quickly loses steam and turns into a 5-hour run through a long corridor.
