ZoKnowsGaming writes "The Darkness II is not only superior to the original, it is one of the best games I have played in a while. The actual story is one that is genuinely compelling as you go on this journey that will take you to the very bowels of hell itself. Jackie isn’t a hero, but he’s not a villain. Even with all his faults you will like the guy. As I said in my preview, the game has a lot of violence and gore, but it’s not just for shock factor. The violence is merely a necessary backdrop to facilitate the telling of one of the best stories you will experience this year."
Hunble Bundle is currently offering free copies of The Darkness 2 for the next 48 hours. The Darkness 2 is an intense first person shooter that – according to its description – delivers a twisted and gripping narrative of tragedy, modern crime drama, and supernatural horror.
This is why I don't buy video games anymore. I have a huge Steam backlog and developers are gracious enough to offer their products for free. Fortnite is free, Darkness is free, lots of good free games. Thanks Humble

I suppose like any game, if you are a fan, or if you've never played the game before, then it's worth it. The Darkness 2 is worth a replay for sure, but I'd really like the original game to be added to the list. The Darkness was one of my favorite experiences last gen.
I would love to see MGS4 remastered. That game was another one of my top games from last gen.
Sorry bro but no console ever will ever get to experience MGS4 apart for PS3. Yeah it’s a shame. All to do with how hard it was to make for the PS3 console,and is impossible to replicate apart from say remaking it from scratch
I hope Spec-Ops: The Line gets the 4K enhancement like some of the backwards compatible titles have. I love that game.
The Darkness II has received some huge price cuts, the game is currently available at just $5.99 on Steam, 85% lower than its original price $39.99.
I had a blast with the 1st one. It was perfect. The 2nd not that much, was pretty forgettable tbh and the cell shading, although beautiful, was not my kind of tea
That said, if they make a 3rd one they should make it a bit closer to the original's...vibe and looks.
I still enjoyed 2, it still kept some of the neat things from the first one. Having said that, the first is considerably better, I'd rather the 3rd (somehow) end up being made by machine games which seems to be where a fair amount of the darkness/butchers bay devs ended up.
are we talking switch ports again or why is another lastGen game in the headlines?
I personally enjoyed this one more than first game (even though I think first one is good too)
