During the first few hours of play TrustedReviews had high hopes that Dark Sector was going to be this year's The Darkness - a game that they hadn't begun the year in eager anticipation of, but would end the year remembering fondly. Unfortunately it didn't quite end up that way, but for all its rampant idea-grabbing and moments of ill-judged design, it's still far from being a disaster.
If you don't get it then you won't miss out on anything that special, but if you're a fan of good action games, then you wouldn't regret shelling out for it either. Just prepare for a few ups and downs, and enjoy the affair while it lasts.
