  • It's been 3 years since my last response and I am still strangely pining... I still visit this video. Man this idea could have been wonderous.

  • i really hope somebody picks up on this game n gives the original version a shot cause im still waiting for it

  • it was originally supposed to be a sequel to unreal tournament.

  • a alguien le recuerda a dead space?

  • Damn, never knew the game was supposed to be like this in the initial stages. Hope this get released some day.

  • Sheesh, reading all these comments... It's almost too depressing =/

    I like the game the way they released it.

    I mean... This still looks interesting. And I would consider playing it, it just seems like it would be better as a separate game. Kind of like the big cloud surrounding the new DMC game and whatnot. Good looking game, just as long as it isn't considered part of the game(s) that's already out.

  • This is looks actualy beder than original

  • him opening his mask is a bit of a downer, ruins some of the mystery.

  • This guy has a super suit and crazy powers but you see him yell in surprise, get nervous for a moment and hold a handrail on his way out of an airlock. These things might seem insignificant but just those little details make him more believable than any of those generic badass alpha male characters who never break a sweat or have more than 3 expressions.

  • Unreal Tournament+ Splinter Cell= Dark Sector.

  • I HAVE A POLL AT THE DARKSECTOR WEBSITE. VOTE YES IF YOU WANTED TO SEE THIS GAME MADE.

    it takes a bit of searchin, but its there. go and vote, let them hear your voice. Tell them how badly they need to make this game.

  • WHAT A WASTE I agree with everyone who were so anticipated for this version, what ever the reason.

    The Dark sector that did come out was half assed, recycled ideas, and in my opinion a quick way for extra currency.

  • Man this trailer made me want to buy the next generation of consoles but when the game was released I was so disappointed. Maybe the story of the sequel ill be in space.

  • yeah, when they changed it, they must have been trying to weigh out their audiences; those who were into sci-fi and those were into a more realistic setting

    tbh, i was really into this stealthy sci-fi concept >: and the music is frikkin awesome

  • this should be the sequel

  • This is what the game should've been like! its like splinter cell meets Mass Effect and Dead space!

  • i complexity agree. when they showed the new dark sector later i was completely uninterested. I think the reason why they went and turned it into a over the shoulder shooter, was because of that was the norm at the time. and instead of doing something new and different, they stuck to something familiar which would assure them to get some kind of sells. i wish new companies wouldn't be so abrade to do something new.

  • @Aznbum why do u like killing ur own race so much? that just goes to show how primitive humans. it makes no logical sense to kill your own kind however i do see that its a game and not real but still the fact remains that you would rather kill your own race rather than kill robots or aliens...idk just doesnt make sense to me

  • why the hell did they change it!?!!!

    this looks awsome!!!

  • wtf? ....

  • When I first saw the original trailer, about 1.5-2 years ago, I flipped out. I thought it looked freaking awesome, and I find myself wondering yet again, why did they change it!? It looked so awesome and yet...... I don't.... I can't.... I just can't reconcile it in my mind.

  • @Illyasviel343 seriously, they should redo it with the original storyline

  • Stop talkin' crap about the new game. the newer Dark Sector is a great game, with awesome graphics, awesome hand-to-hand combat and even awesomer finisher moves. This game is good, but the "Mutant bullshit" as you people call it is much better than this.

  • i hate games where you fight against "mechanical warriors" or whatever the hell you call them. all this Gundam bullshit needs to stop. killing aliens (ex. Gears of War; Halo; Dead Space) fine, killing humans (ex. Modern Warfare; Rainbow 6; Assassins Creed) even better. But this robot shit is getting old, Gundam is dead, Lost Planet is dead.

    The NEW Dark Sector owns this crap.

  • @Aznbum So games should stop using robotic enemies because you personally don't like it. Great argument. I'm assuming that you're one of those people that watches terrible anime because it has "sweet gore." Old Dark Sector woulda been tight. Stfu and go rent Violence Jack faggot.

  • Comment removed

  • This is what the game should've been like. The most disappointing gaming news I've had this generation was that they were revamping Dark Sector from awesome Taiko-drumming, space commando sci-fi win into some generic mutant bullshit.

    It looked like it would be an incredibly promising game if they had just kept it on track, I saw absolutely no reason for the relaunch, and the relatively low average score that the game got is proof enough of that.

  • yes dark sector i have is great

  • sigh i wish they made this version instead cuz i dont like the new one they made =\ o well if i want 2 be in space getting shit scared time for me 2 buy Dead Space

  • This would have been better than the whole mutant virus eastern localized shit.

  • newer is better this this crap.

  • i agree.

  • ok i personally own dark sector and its a pretty sweet game. this older version blowws dick no matter what any of you noobs say.

  • For every choice not made. There is an alternate universe out there where it was made.

    So. Somewhere out there, those idiot designers chose to keep the game like this. Another me is playing it until I pass out. blah

  • The other me is pissed off that the dark sector we have here in this time was not made instead of the sci-fi space version that was not made in this reality...or something like that.

  • They said this was a tech demo.  A lot of the style carried over (the way Haydan looks in this) and his name and whatnot. The enemies look like Star Craft knockoffs though.

  • This is the way it should have been. The new version is cool and all but this was part stealth part shooter all sci-fi.

    Oh well it happens.

    Just like when the Halo 2 demo came out with the Chief surrounded by Elites at the the end then he takes out a grenade and rushes toward them. I wanted that to be in the game so bad back then.

  • my god this rape the realanuch version by a hundred dicks this could had the potential to be halo fused with advent rrising but those dick heads had to fuck themeselves in teh ass and make the queer relaunch terrible EVERYTHING WAS SO FUCKING REPETETIVE with this theme of a tech/spae world THE WEAPONS AND THE ABILITIES COULD HAVE BEEN ENDLESS

  • Haha you know whats awesome? If they made this, dead space would be considered a cheap knock off,lol!

  • I can't unterstand why they made a whole new game, too.

    I hope, they'll release this game, too.^^

  • It had so much potential. It could've turned the studio around, but it didn't. ;[so sad.'

    Hope someone recycles it.

  • and looks like a horrible sequil

  • this just looks like a movie short

  • Wow i dont know where you get the idea of the glaive being copied from gears of war... I liked the game the way they released it. They better make another one the storyline is great.

  • this version is better in every way

  • Hell yes. Hell yes.

  • looked like alien, halo and doom at the same time

  • I can't believe be actually like the way they changed Dark Sector. The orginial idea was far better and with some minor tweaks here and there it could have been an easy 10. The new version did so poorly and the freaking glaive is such a retarded weapon making all the other weapons in the game pointless and requires you to use an ineffective and really toyish tool to kill the enemy. It is such a rip off of the chainsaw in gears of war. At least the orginial idea offered a unique suit to the gamer

  • says u, but ur lostsanity

  • that name seems to always bite me in the ass when i try to make a point. lol

  • tihihihihi *giggles more*

  • Wow! I havent seen this since april 2005. Man has Dark sector changed. This could have been cool. I really liked the final game, but the whole dark sector in space could have been cool.

  • i always thought this version of the game looked interesting. however there are about a million games in that sort style, so no wonder they abandon it. much prefer the modern day eastern European style. makes it seem way creepier.

  • and now there are about a million games in the eastern european style, they should've kept this style if you ask me

  • I should explain. The reason the developer switched to a more gears of war-type style was to appeal to more people, since sci-fi had been done, or so they said. I think the real reason is that they were forced to make the switch by some of the higher ups, since I can not think of giving this really cool look up.

  • i see you have the whole story then. and its still bullshit. pardon me. this is one of the biggest disappointments i have ever seen, the most biggest epic-fail in the history of gaming. This is what happens when creativity is solely could buy cash.

    I HAVE A POLL AT THE DARKSECTOR WEBSITE. VOTE YES IF YOU WANTED TO SEE THIS GAME MADE.

    it takes a bit of searchin, but its there. go and vote, let them hear your voice. Tell them how badly they need to make this game.

  • LMFAO !!! I prefer the new one !

  • WOW!!!!so glad they changed it to how it is today that looked really gay this is more realistic and scarier that was to cheezy this is a really good game though worth buying

  • There are days I sit down and write short fan fiction ideas behind this concept because of how good it looked. The mystery behind it is very intriguing. I still would like to know about the Dark Sector of space and his involvement as a spy/saboteur so deep in outer space! I still would like to know what other abilities he had and if there were rival spies or other villains. I would ahve so abused the control other machines mechanic!!

  • This would've made for an superb game, not mention an original one but I guess the developers thought it best to play it safe.

  • This is so bad I can't believe how much better it is!!!

  • The game changed a bit then!

  • sort of doom, alien, time shift, etc.. feel in game wise but very similar to other games, there a good dozen or so others just the same but it would still be quite cool to see ...

  • I prefer the new version but this would be quite a cool game aswell just improve on the graphics and make a different costume for the main charcter. It is quite similar to loads of other games but it still seems pretty good, if they also had a sort of metal gear solid 4 cloak that would be cool too, and the time shifting capabilities of timeshift but better shooting/ fighting action.

  • kinda like starcraft

  • Oh WOW I totally forgot about this trailer! I downloaded it and everything and remembered thinking i really wanted it! then wasn't that bothered when the actual game came out because I didn't even recognise it...how peculiar

  • the suit looks the same but more pastey like the real gamee rocks socks

  • Oh thank GOD they changed the game. This looks like just another dime a dozen scifi shooter.

  • i allready beated dark sector AND ITS AMAZING I LOVE IT i recomend it

  • wow. what a total waste of 7 minutes. give it back, you bastards.

  • I'm glad they changed it, it just wouldn't have been the same without the glaive. Also the actualt version is pretty unique and more creepy cuz of the setting, but the older version just looks like another sci-fi game, which there are kinda too many of (cough~Halo~cough)

  • What we should of gotten...

  • QFT

  • there is only 1 thing stopping me from giving this game trade in.... caN u start the game wth ur old abilities and weapons ? cause when i started it in brutal i didn't have my weapon all that work for nothing btw dont buy this crap chop game

  • this version probably wouldve been better than the one they used

  • I just beat the dark sector game, the suit looks better in the final cut, this one looks very bland, i'm glad to see the more organic armor is the one they went with, though it was disappointing that it had nothing to do with space,other than that the game rocks the shit...

  • Wonder why they changed the setting of the game?

  • OMG! thank the lord they went back and redid almost the whole game.....this version looks like such a piece of crap. The new version is pretty good, has some flaws in it, but what game doesnt it?

  • kind of slow fo rthe timing with the guns and noises dude.

  • also it reminds me alot of the starcraft game that neva came out

  • this game looks like it would be more stealthy but funner, the other one is just like any other hack and slash

  • How come the sound is so badly tuned? WICKED DELAY!

  • y u all disin it it looks mint

  • the soldiers look cheasy in this game, if they take the enemies from the new Darck Sector and put them in the old you would have an awesome game.

  • i think this one looks more fun and cooler to play..id rather have that palm thingy than a stupid thing to throw...sigh..i hate game developers

  • Dude when I saw this 4 years ago I was stoked beyond all belief for this game. The morphing suit idea really appealed to me and there was (and hasn't been) anything like it. Then when I saw it changed setting to an all-to-familiar, war-torn version of Earth, or whatever planet it takes place on, I was highly disappointed -- especially upon learning that the morphing suit was no longer present and had been replaced by a "virus". Dark Sector had potential to REALLY separate itself from the crowd..

  • it would be amazing to see both the new and the old one come out. I like the new one. but thats just me. the old one looks real good too. but the newer one kicks ass. I hope that DE really thinks their decision over and releases this game under a new name. that would be sick.

  • Damn this has changed!

  • my bad i didn't watch the whole video it actually looks pretty good in a metored prime sci-fi why way.

  • This is the first glimpse of what Next gen was to become, as of 5-6 years ago. They've since changed the entire story and about everything that they were originally planning on doing. Personally, this looks pretty dam awsome and I wish they would at least keep some of the enemies that they had originally planned on having. I like the idea of a "Dark Sector" beyond Pluto. a little disapointing to no that most of it will never see the inside of our consoles.

  • i think they keep the big guys in the those huge body armer suit.But anyways this version looks like boring crap

  • My goodness this game changed from something sort of interesting to a complete crap shoot.

  • Completely agree. We just need another GeoW clone right? Oh and the stupid glaive idea is so cheap and gimmicky.  The original Dark Sector used a magnetic/force system (you see it in his palm), which seems much more appealing, interesting, and quite plausible for a future setting, and not some weird biological weapon/disease that transforms you into a superhuman............god dammit I hate the new Dark Sector.

  • this game has nothing to do with dark sector coming out for 360

    this game was supposed to be like a sequel to unreal tournament or something

    but they scrapped it cuz of problems

    when they started again, used same name, but diff storyline, much better i think

  • the dark sector would "expand" all the way to the future.

  • Maybe they released this as a teaser trailer. Like this is going to be a sequel or something. You never know. Maybe at the end of Dark Sector, after the credits, a video will reveal that this is just in the future because the disease he has lets him live longer. Who knows?!

  • this one looks better

  • both games look great by themselves.  I agree with some of you and think this should be made into a game aswell. Lets just hope the gameplay is as fluent as the video shows.

  • they should make two versions of the game one of them using the old version

  • even though they changed the story. that cool mask of his makes an appearence when he fully evolves into a monster thing.

  • yo this game was gonna be wack good thing they changed it

  • this version looks like a quake ripoff thank god that the new one is so much better march 25 cant wait

  • i think the concept for the original version looked much more intriguing than the new one..i think this might suffer from the same thing that happened to timeshift..

  • na dude timeshieft was crap

    the new one has some really awesome features, fluid gameplay, a good, slightly realistic story, and amazing multiplayer

    it gunna be an 85-95/100 game for sure

  • If they put some serious work into this it could be okay but the new version is still better

  • they should actually make both versions!

  • i cant wait to get this game i want to cut people in half lol

  • i have a feeling that DE will use this concept for another game. i love the suit though BADASS in both this and the new version

  • new version will be so much better this just doesnt look all that great compared to it... cant wait til March 4th

  • I still think this would have been a better idea.

  • this version would make a cool movie.

  • i like the new one much better

  • a my nigs i dont know wat yall talkin bout the new one is waaaaaaaay better than dis and if you hav Gears of war and RE4 than you know wat im talkin bout. dis on looks lik shit figure deal me

  • The NEW version is awesome! I cannot wait to get my hands on it.

  • The original version definitely looked very interesting, I liked the entire concept, especially when I saw it air on TechTV, but I'm interested in seeing where the new spin takes hold, and if it will live up to my current expectations. I do wish, however, that DE will consider revising and releasing this version.

  • if u truly think about the new concep it is kinda stupid. its stupid to say that a virus which infects an organic thing makes u produce inorganic stuff like the glaive..this version was better

  • i have that stealth suit but it dont work

  • this version looks seems more interesting than how its now. Hope that if a dark sector 2 will be in the works that this version will be it. I was really looking forward into fighting in outer space ships.

  • me too

  • glad i'm not the only one.

  • i agree too, the new version looks really wierd ive seen gameplay

  • i had a comment of a guy who played the demo at PAX and he says its total ass.

  • This looks so much cooler then the other crap.

  • Finally! A game with a character with my name! And it's the main character too.lol

  • Damn, I remember seeing this before PS3 and 360 came out (I think it was before, right?) and thinkin, "daaaaamn, no WAY is it gonna look like that when it comes out!" cuz you know, companies always over hype graphics. But now we've got Gears of Wars n Assassin's Creed n shit and it's like, damn, these old graphics ain't nothin!

    Around this time in the last generation I said this so now I'll say it again: imagine what the NEXT gen graphics are gonna look like!

  • They pissed me off when they switched the game up. I really wanted to play this game.

  • I hear you man.

  • I was pissed off about it too. But, we'll see how it turns out. *crossin fingers*

  • me too if they make a dark sector 2 then they sude go with this idea

  • its so sad that they switched it to a 3rd person shooter. This seems way more interesting. To me, it seems like they switched it to a 3rd person shooter so they would know for sure that they would make money. "your audiance is stupid.", they say, so why not go with a shooting game.

  • its always be 3rd person

  • Yea darkstar8686, wth is poulet7 talkin about? *confused* It's always been 3rd person...

  • no i mean a "shooter". i can see the game was going to be 3rd person, but it was 3rd person stealth, not a shooter. Most of the time why a lot of American game companies make shooters cause they know that they sell well. Yeah ever once and a while companies will go out of there way to do something different, but their usually sure to make money with a shooter.

  • Yea, I can understand that. But if shooters make more money because they sell well that means that most people like em. So, yea...

  • this is the old dark sector?

    i was wondering what happened to this game

    this looks way better then the new one

  • Should have kept the old one, developers and publishers refusing to take risks on somthing new is ruining the industry, sick of the same old shit.

  • i think either way it would be a cool game i cant wait for it to come out

  • I don't understand why they change great sci-fi game to f*** survival horror with hl blood, crushed skulls, separates arms etc... In this old version its similiar with Metal Gear Solid but in space opera. What we have here now ? Another Super Hiper Heroes SKEWERMAN bla bla bla...

  • people prefer the old one?!?!?!?!?

    in my opinion i like the new one best cause i hate most sci-fi games

  • man I wish they stuck with this version. I'm not really interested now that they changed it.

  • the newer version looks way better imo.

    -Hurmun

  • well as far as graphics...yeah. I dunno, it does look kinda interesting. I'm just a stealth/tactical shooter kinda guy.

  • Does anyone know who's doinf the drumwork for this trailor? Sounds a lot like Yakudo, not sure though.

  • Digital Extremes just ruined a great concept for a game. They could've stuck with the same story, updated the engine to an Unreal_3 or something. But they had to go screw the whole thing up. =(

  • They changed it to sell more games. its in a recognizable setting, i loved the old trailer too but the new game has more upside. the glave and his powers will make for better gameplay.

  • That may be. But I think the game would've been awesome the way it was IMHO. But it's the designer's call. Not ours. =)

  • i dont think it could have competed with the scale of mass effect really.

  • Of course not. :)

  • ummm.. it's NOTHING like Mass Effect. kinda like comparing pong to mario galaxy

  • your right, i mean a third person sci fi game set in the distant regions of space, with ecalons of technology and upgrades is nothing like mass effect.

  • mass effect is an rpg, you go to different planets and mine for stuff, have multiple people in your party, use magic....

    this is JUST a shooter. an over the shoulder 3rd persn shooter

  • get over yourself, because you obviously can't see the woods for the trees.

    comparing yuor intellect to mine would be like asking a shrew to make a porno, maybe do able but trite and severly lacking.

    grow up

  • way to flame on someone else's page.

    you grow up

    im out

  • what out the closet ? i dont get it, its ok for you to tell me im wrong, but its not ok for me to tell you that your wrong ? i dont understand how that can work. truly i dont.

  • i kinda like this trailer much better. it seems moe of an interesting game than the newer trailer. although it does not show much of the abiliies in this trailer. i liked the telekinisis tho. actually i kinda like the glaive better than the generic pistols tho.

  • the new one doesn't have any innovative features, but this one held promise....BAD CHOICE, I miss this version:(

  • WTF, this is a completely diffrent game(aside from the main character's name and appearance), but I think the new one is better.

  • the new one is a RE4 clone.

  • yeah i agree

  • the graphic, visual effects for the new version is pretty good. but I think the gameplay for the first production is so sweet. but you'll never know until the game comes out. maybe they might make part two of this game in the future. who knows

  • i saw a interview of the makers of this game on MTV, an they said that this game was made as a competition to Gears of War

  • If u guys saw the E3 stage demo at gamespot you'd know that by the end of the game,as you aquire powers and the infection,grows you'll be the cyber ninja. I was really sad at first about this complete change. I've grown to like it now.
