IGN Reviews – The Darkness II Game Review

47 Comments

1. Imagine this with new gen graphics.Would be sick as F.

2. This franchise needs a reboot!!!

3. Absolutely love this – and the first Darkness, – currently playing them for the first time in a few years, – just watching this review for old times sake, – gotta say I disagree with the weaker story comment, – I don't think it's weaker, just different to the first and just as gripping, – and I've never encountered any bugs or glitches since buying this back on release in 2012. Truly awesome game, – we just seriously need the sequel!!!

4. One of the greatest games on PS NOW

5. I think The Darkness is better suited as a 3rd person action Shooter/Hack&Slash like Ninja Gaiden meets Batman Arkham.
   OH, that's what Metal Gear Rising should've been like

6. Damn this was 8 years ago

7. Aged way better than the first one

8. Now I see where the bo3 monster you can play as got the inspiration from…

9. Old but gold,this game needs a damn sequel,this is what duke nukem should of been-minus the demon powers

10. i never encountered any bugs

11. Still is a great amazing game still wishing a third was made and if they use a irl actor the dude who played loki would fit the look of Jackie Estacado with his hair down

12. Weaker story…i was hooked. But cant remember the 1st game and only just got to play this. Not knowing if he was insane in the asylum was a really nice touch. And the ending was fantastic. Would definitely buy the 3rd a lot sooner.

13. The first game was awesome

14. Doesn’t this game have a Rob Zombie song in it?

15. Both of these games are terrible.

16. The cell shaded graphics are perfect since the games are based from graphic novels and they make it look so much better I just a sequel or a reboot already

17. 7 years later and still no Darkness 3

18. I had tentacles like that (four I think, but not dark and more like heroes!) out of my stomach in visions I had about my high school time, I have schizophrenia although. :-/ !

19. ياساتر نظام جزر

20. I had no issues with the game

21. The darkness is forever

22. I played the side missions alone and they were not tough. Just take the axe wielder and go on a rampage

23. One of the worst games ever

24. Polish issues? Like limitations to freedom of speech?

31. The Darkness 2 is one of my all time favorite games. I played the hell out of it when it was first released back in 2012 and when I saw it was available for backwards compatibility on Xbox One I jumped at the opportunity to play it again and I snagged it for eight bucks. Playing it in 2018 I must say that it holds up amazingly, and that it’s leaps and bounds ahead of a lot of FPS shooters that are more recent. It’s inventive gameplay and it’s heartbreaking story make it timeless! I’m saddened that the game didn’t do well enough to garner another sequel; especially when this one ended on a cliffhanger… Alas, that’s how it is. The Call of Duty’s and the Battlefields will always get sequels but gems like this’ll remain in the Darkness (see what I did there lol). All in all I’m happy that I was able to play this great video game again. I really hope they decide to make another sequel, I wanna see what Jackie does next.

    P.S. it’s based off a really good comic of the same name. Check it out.

32. These are one of the games that deserve to be truly amazing games but always gets overshadowed by the overrated Sony Mafia like Last of Us and Metal Gear

33. Just bought this for 5 bux on steam, even though I beat it when it came out, it was fun to revisit it again after all these years…

34. This game would work great with VR

35. i'm the 333.333th viewer 😀 i'm halfway to Hell and satan 😀

36. its booring game I don't agree with review

37. why anyone make movie on this series ?

38. Damn you COD, Damn YYYOOOOUUUUU!!!!!!!!!

39. I played the darkness 2 first then played the first, darkness 1 was honestly terrible for me so idk.

40. Worth $1 along with the other games and 10% off humble monthly.

41. Might run out and pick this up. Anybody up for the co-op?

42. Does anyone realize this game is based on a dc comics character

43. I liked both of them I just want a 3rd installment. Who are the creators of this game so I can look at there news online?

44. This was a console game. It was better on 360 and PS3.

45. very underrated game… The darkness 1 its a master piece. The darkness 2 is awesome but not like the first game. The only thing this game have better then first game is the combat system, the rest is better in the darkness 1. But still a great game but not like the first one.

46. Fun game but it's still $30 on XBox Live, overpriced. Especially when it's $10 new at Game Stop and $5 used.

47. Does darkness 2 have split screen?
