The Darkness - Day 1

Well, the next game I got was The Darkness. I was looking forward to this game, even though people were saying that the game was good, but didn't have much going for it after the campaign.

I really loved the opening sequence. Nothing better than a car chase with mobsters firing at the cops through a crowded tunnel with construction going on.

As for gameplay, so far it has been hit and miss...literally. While having two guns to fire can be fun, Jackie really has problems aiming at things. I haven't messed with "auto-aim", but I almost think I should turn it up just so I can make sure I hit my desired target.

Also, I've shot plenty of mobsters to see them go down for a couple seconds, and then get right back up. It really sucks to "knock them down" and start to walk away, only to find your back riddled with bullet holes and you on the ground. At least the restart animations are cool, where the Darkness basically says that you aren't going anywhere but back out to kick some ass.

I will get to more of it later, when I don't have to go to work within an hour.
