    The Darkness

    No not that band from years ago... its a 360/PS3 game im quite getting into at the moment, anyone else play this?

    Your like a mafia hitman with demonic powers.. its really good actually, i advise anyone who hasn't played it yet to give it a try, nice break from the usual FPS.

    Yeah, I've heard this is red hot. Some of the screenshots look quite naughty violence-wise too.

    I hear its pretty good. I always liked the comic it is based off of and I really liked the Wolverine/Darkness one shot crossover. When I get my 360 I plan on trying this game out.

    Make sure that you rent it or borrow it from a buddy first. These games are too expensive to buy on a whim. It's gotten to the point for me to where if it's not a triple a title such as halo 3 and gta 4 there's no way i'm buying them blindly.

    I actually have. I've seen gameplay footage on g4 on their 3 day coverage of e3. They showed how you would use the tenticles to solve puzzles and stuff. It was pretty cool. I'm glad that you like it. There's nothing worse than blowing 60 bucks on a turd.

    I suggested it a few times about a week ago, nobody here seemed interested. It is really good, my favorite attack is definitely the shadow arm impale move. And the gun executions are great, too! Very visceral game with lots of unlockable content. Recommended.

    Yeah, I saw the video some dude posted here a couple of weeks ago and it was red hot. But I don't pay £50 for games anymore, so I'll give it a few months and get it second hand.

    Definitely. The only games i get anymore for the new retail price are the blockbusters. There's too much content out there. I'll just tide myself over until the price comes down as well. It's still the same game 6 months- a year later right?

    definatley same here, just the other day i got lost planet and quake 4 for 20 quid rather than 100 bucks for the pair.

    -oh something i find funny is prey appears to be a game made in the quake 4 engine yet quake 4 is **** in comparison.
