Epic Scale - The Darkness

Yeah they need to make a sequel for sure. I loved this game start to finish. I especially love the part with the crazy brother in the subway. Man I miss ripping off faces and eating hearts.

Yeah, I'd definitely buy a sequel. I'm going to go back and play this game again before too long.

It does have a great story to it. I wish it would of had trophies too, but regardless... great game.

Ya this was a fantastic game! I really like the 2K shooters ( Darknees & Bioshock ) they aren't the military / Sci-Fi like everyone else does. They are more like a Fright Night or Tales from the Crypt kinda games and I find those so much more enjoyable.
