The Darkness II

On : PC , X360 , PS3
Genre : Action
Publisher : 2K Games
Developer : Digital Extremes
Web Site : embracethedarkness.com
Summary : 
That's The Darkness II's thing. Violence. It revels in vicious, virtual gore like no other shooter of this console generation. The once-moody, character-led shooter Starbreeze created has gone to a new developer (the aptly named Digital Extremes) and been transformed into a stylish bloodbath. However, that's no bad thing. Although this sequel definitely lacks the nuanced storytelling of its predecessor, it swaps the gentle moments of the first game for relentless horror and grizzly action.
Digital Extremes have a decent stab at the heart-warming tale of demon-infested mob-boss Jackie Estacado and his dead girlfriend Jenny, but much of the sentimentality rests on players having finished the original, which - considering how few bought it and how few of them felt comfortable with the twitchy shooting - means they're preaching to a small flock. However, the way they present Jackie and Jenny's transcendental love story is interesting, and it builds to a fascinating climax for which it's worth enduring the more pedestrian plot elements.
The meat is all dirty mob-talk and comic-book fantasy (not inappropriate considering The Darkness is based on a series of graphic novels) as Jackie's organisation fight a group hell-bent on acquiring The Darkness from him. Although well voiced, this portion of the game feels clumsy next to the clever love story.
