Date reviewed: March 22, 2008.

Overall: The Darkness is another good shooter on the 360. The controls are fluid enough and allow for slight tweaking. The story is short but has it moments. The Darkness shines where it should in the use of the Darkness Powers. There is nothing like impaling a mobster with the Demon Arm or watching as the mobsters helplessly fly around the Black Holes. Game Developers should follow Infinity Ward's lead and leave the Achievements offline. The Online play is forgettable at best and is only looking up at other shooters.
