IGN UK: Dark Void Review

With a poorly-received demo already forcing Capcom to halve its sales estimates for Dark Void, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anyone that the full package is every bit as disappointing as expected. By Capcom's normally impressive standards, this is by some margin its least impressive offering for a generation. To be blunt, Dark Void is a bland mass of half-baked ideas, generic combat and unengaging aerial action, with poor AI and a wearisome story. If disappointment is what you're after, look no further.

Shame I had some high hopes for this game, I'll still give it a rent.

MmaFanQc5230d ago

after playing the demo for 10mins i had enuff.

ian725230d ago

I also had high hopes for this game. Its a pity it hasn't turned out well. I was going to buy this but now I dont think so.

Sevir045230d ago

Dark Void looked like a very bad attempt a 3rd person shooting... I hated it. and i was really hoping it would have been great. Airtight games and Capcom really messed this game up.

jalen2475230d ago

Dark Void is a pretty decent game, I have it on disc for PS3 but hey... I'll grab it digitally to play on my Series S. Hard Corps Uprising is a freaking sweet (and hard) game. I've had that for a while and still cannot beat it.

Supernintendo851141d ago

@darthv72 Jesus Christ LOL, how on earth could you be downvoted for your opinion of the two games that are decent? This community sometimes i swear...

darthv721141d ago

It must be those that have beaten Hard Corps Uprising. That is their way of telling me I need to get good.

RazzerRedux1141d ago

Maybe they are downvoting because they disagree with his opinion.

Fritzwochel1141d ago

This is why sites like Reddit are trash. They auto-punish users who gets downvoted - thus if you have an opinion other than the poitical correct majoirty, you're getting all sorts of blocks.

CrimsonWing691141d ago

I'm all in for Dark Void and Hard Corps, but look... people have opinions. Maybe a majority of peeps don't agree with his opinion so they hit the disagree button, I don't know it makes sense to me.

@Supernintentendo

Best thing to do is not worry about those little arrows below your comment, and just say want you feel. You'll be much better off when you don't care about yours or soomebody else's downvotes.

On topic, I also have Dark Void for PS3, and it was pretty decent. Good enough for at least a playthrough.

PapaBop1140d ago

Since when do people care about votes on here? Everyone on here knows darthv72 is an xbox guy, he'd get more disagrees for saying white is white and black is black.

The Wood1140d ago (Edited 1140d ago )

Some people act like someone spat in their faces or they're credit score would be impacted. Some people don't agree.... .life huh

IGN said, "Dark Void is one of those games you'll play, beat, and forget ever existed."
Exactly my experience.

Dark Void possibly killed my phat launch PS3, with countless crashes and slowdown. So I have mixed feelings about that one lol. Mediocre game at best, and runs terrible on PS3. Hopefully the 360 version is better...

Chevalier1141d ago

Loved Hard Corps! But yeah get better 😆. By the time you unlock all the abilities you it just gets easier. Makes me wish they would continue with Hard Corps.

boing11140d ago

Yeah, Dark Void was pretty decent. Nolan North voiced main hero AFAIR.

Chocoburger1140d ago

Legit cringe when MS promotes Achievements and GamerScore. Sad state of affairs for them to be that desperate.

RosweeSon1140d ago

Making out those games are still worth $129.99 is bad enough 😑🤣 yeah maybe 10 years ago. Worth about 12.99 these days 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣 ✌🏻

Father__Merrin1141d ago

Lol the Austria leak was fake then. This looks better than last months which was rubbish

x_xavier_x1141d ago

*Truck Racing Championship*
"monitor tire wear..."

Yeah, that's what I want out of a video game. /s

What have they got in store for next month, Vehicle Inspection Sticker: The Game?

DOMination-1141d ago

It's a racing game.

It's no different than monitoring your health bar in an FPS or the time you spend watching a cutscene rather than playing.
