  • Somebody fucking slap me because I dot know how I never heard of this fucking game :/ wow

  • I think its on PC, but you can find this game really cheap now.

  • is this available for pc or just consoles?

  • I rented this game, expecting it to be a pretentious emo twatfest straight from a 7th grader's notebook. What I got instead was a fun, gory shooter with a great story that actually compels you to complete the whole game.

  • Can't believe he didn't mention how amazinggg the story is

  • the demo for number 2 is amazing

  • it's funny how you can see the reviewer really likes the game. with all the movements and word usage.

  • Looks pretty good. Maybe I'll get it.

  • Lol this reviewer has a good sense of humor Awesome review

  • Awesome review! 

  • I love the sound he does at 3:36 :D

  • 3:17-3:22 "another way to restore all of your darkness power is by eating human hearts, it's awesome" the way he said it made me laugh. and of course Jackie can make Chuck his bitch

  • 3:56 look at the one on the left it looks so sad and disappointed :/

  • the one on the left always seems so sad... poory guy, I mean, uh.... demon thing

  • Their making a sequel

  • Just got this for $5, haven't got to play it yet, finishing up gears of war 3, but it looks great, I think I did pretty good then. Especially since I just saw it at the checkout at game haven in their box of games without cases for super cheap and picked it up on a wim, I just remembered seeing stuff about it when it came out but never got around to playing it and forgot about it, then I saw the darkness 2 reveal thought that looked pretty good so I figures the first one couldn't b very bad if

  • @zackphy You got it brand new?

  • these are the type of reviews i really enjoy.

  • i love this game

  • ahahha 1:46 sounds like "a fat black hole that will suck dirty cocks"

  • Thumbs up if you would never buy that stupid OnLive game "system"

  • one of the best games i ever played. mad fun and interesting. liked the old school mobsters lmao. i mean really old school mobsters. nah but they got down. gangstas ! p.s. the ending was ILL ! i should go fuck with it again

  • just got it for 5 bucks 

  • @barrygish hope u enjoying it man. i got my copy like few months ago gamestop it was like 3 or 4 bucks. lol what a steal. one of the best games i ever played. let me know what u think about it.

  • @1pothead its fun i wasnt planning on getting it before cause i was getting medal of honor then i thought huh wow sounds intresting then i decided to spend the extra 5 bucks on it cant wait for the second 1

  • @1pothead great game so far its definitly worth 5 bucks i will probably get the darkness 2

  • @barrygish . yup. 5 bucks cant go wrong. how far u got ?

  • @1pothead um not to far i also got splinter cell conviction and ea sports mma so i also have been playin thos when jackie goees over to jennys (i had trouble lookin where to go)

  • @barrygish some parts i got lost too. but its mostly going on the subway back and forth to locations. i couldnt find a building in the beginning for mad long. but once u get use to it you will be ok . i hope u finish it because the ending is one of the best i ever seen.

  • @1pothead sadly some dumbass told me the ending when i told him not too dosnt jennie die

  • @barrygish yea jenny gets shot by a dirty cop

  • @barrygish thats not even the ending. not even close to the ending. your still good.

  • @1pothead ay this the same as barrygish youtube wouldnt let me ,log in to my profile

  • @xxztopcommentxxz finish the game lol.

  • @1pothead After Jackie shot Pauly the darkness consumed his soul, but somehow he managed to wake up (probably thanks to Jenny) before the gate to heaven. "They" that Jenny spoke of were probably the angles and, because Jackie's soul was tainted by darkness, they only allowed them enough time to only say good bye. Jacky loved her so much and in the end, she was ripped away from him. Words cannot express the sadness Jacky must have felt. I played the whole game yesturday

  • @xxztopcommentxxz how u liked the last fight? i loved the ending . i went out gunz blazing.

  • @1pothead same here same here loved the last fight

  • this game is on my top 5 for best games ive ever played

  • is this game good?

  • @Juledass95 isnt that why you are watching this review? i find it awesome but it is more of a cult following game.

  • SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO UNDERRATED I MEAN HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THE GAME AND THE GAME HAD NO SALES WHAT SO EVER

  • @McMIxTER It's one of the best games i have ever played, sales don't mean shit.

  • this game is totally futile

  • And don't forget the three stooges

  • AAAAAAAAAH why i didn't buy this :(

  • Why play a story based game online?

    If the story is the attraction, it won't translate well to MMO play.

    If the universe is the attraction, it will.

  • Ok frist off your hart is in the middle not on your left. 3:32

  • @BIG10717 face palm...

  • @someone99220 No man your hart is in the middle noy your left, alot of people say it is but no, that's why you see sniper's in the army aim for the head or hart with is in the middle.

  • @BIG10717 im a sniper in the idf (israel defence force) , we aim to the middle of your body becuse its the center of the mass ... no one aims for the head, its only in video games

  • @someone99220 o i would shoot the easiest thing and that would prolly be like u said the chest thats cool how ur an actual sniper

  • @someone99220 Snipers make me sick.

  • @BIG10717 Okay, first off, before you criticize others, learn how to spell, dick.

  • @Ragingbeast245 What did i say to make you mad, and it look's like every thing is spelled right.

  • @BIG10717 You criticize the developer's for their placement of the heart, while you can't spell heart or first...

  • @Ragingbeast245 Ok i was in a rush and i was on an ipod and i did not say any thing mean, i like this game if any thing it's you being mean, i put that text because i just thought i let every one know that's all maby you should calm down it's no big deal, you don't know who i am so why would you call me a dick.

  • @BIG10717 I got mad at you because it's people like you that start YouTube fights. If you want to criticize others, make sure nothing you say can be criticized first. And also, there's no way you're in the IDF with that kind of grammar...

  • @Ragingbeast245 What the hell are you talking about, i not trying to start a fight you are, soif you're going to be an ass hole then fuck you and this talk is over.:-)

  • @Ragingbeast245 Wait i never said i was in the Israel Defense Forces that other guy did

  • I'm only interested in this game for Mike Patton's genious.

  • this guy is a psycho

  • this game is great its violent it has a great story ect

  • jeckie estacado could kick the shit out of chuck norris. twice.

  • @kirielvids And eat his heart, proberly get quite a bit of power from that

  • pc version needed. 

  • you eat hearts thats awesome :-|

  • so does this game have replay value or is it just a 15 hour ride ?

    not that it really matters im going to buy it ayways just wonderin.

  • @shadowkid1993 Well i Finnished the game 3 times, there are side missions and what not to find which you can miss if you just go from point a to b on your first play through. Plus you collect phone numbers which when you dial unlock content such as art and you find costumes for you darklings and there are a ton of those to find. the thing is the game is like 5 years old now so it may seem pretty dated to more moden games but it's still a ton of fun.

  • @SufferTheMasses My advice would be get this now play it once and wait for the darkness 2 which is out in october check out the gameplay footage on here. But yeah i woukld still put this game in my xbox and i got it when it first came out the story alone is more than enough to keep you playing.

  • @SufferTheMasses oh it doesnt seem dated to me i still fire up the gamecube from time to time, graphics never really ment much to me

  • It would have been awesome if the darkness was voiced by Mark Hamill

  • @Nerefurian if he starts voicing to much stuff itll make the jokers voice seem not as cool

  • FAT BLACK HOLE that SUCKS DIRTY COPS up...well....i never

  • 3:55 the left one is sad

  • Get this game... It is cheap, but I would have spent 30$ AT LEAST on it. It's one of the best games I have ever played honestly. There doesn't seem to be anyone playing online (maybe its just me), but the story is amazing. Not to ruin anything, but you will defiantly feel bad at points. I am only sad that at the end... I won't end it for you but I wish you could have made a choice.

  • great game for sure

  • poor left darkness head, never gets a heart :(

  • is this free-roam

  • @lotrrules1 no, it isnt. its linear

  • So... should I buy it?

  • @leandrasin Yes, you should buy it. It's one of the best games of this generation.

  • now this was a good review unlike that piece of shit ign

  • they never give a chance to this game.............. its different and so cool

  • You cant expect amazing graphics, this was released in 2007 after all.

  • I just got this game last night. Im at the world war I level. I have to say this game is alright, i give it a C. I love the shooting style but there are some things i dont like about it. The graphics suck on this game, they look poorly done and the textures are depressing and bland as fuck. All i see is grey and brown! Some of the game mechanics are off thou, epecially when using the darkness. Plus the "21" year old that I play looks like a douchebag. and whats up with the horrible cut scenes?

  • WTF. I have no idea why I never gave this game a chance!! Gotta find it!

  • the best thing about this game is that u can watch popeye

  • Got this game last year, Loved it. Now I am waiting for the second one :D

  • @jcspider99 the sequel is coming out this year.

  • @Saiyuki204 i am freaking excited its about time but the time they put in it and the graphics is a good excuse

  • jus got it for 3 bucks wat a deal

  • @MRDAXX14 wear did you get it? i cant find the game anywear.

  • was a sleeper hit, really awesome game

  • This game looks amazing-can't believe I have never heard of it!

  • im scared to play this game.......

  • @xUlT1MaTuM its no a scary game..not the type to go do a giant GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH in the middle of nothing,,,its awesome

  • I thought this game was fun and a nice original story to go along with it

  • Tommy Wiseau?!?

  • @BobChaos23 you mightve ruined this game for me.. LISA!

  • @XlongoX YOU'RE TEARING ME APART, DARKNESS!

    =D

  • this game is far to easy for my liking which made me kinda bored rly fast. It is a good game though. Runs smooth, acting is good. Its just that the "lock on" when you're shooting ur pistol or what ever is rly rly bad makes it super easy. There should have been some "darkness monsters" that u could meet inside the game and fight instead of cops and retarded mafia. i give this game a 6/10 allthrough a pretty good game

  • Hmm, this games very cheap now, should i get it?

  • a fat black hole that sucks up cops.....doesnt sound sexual at all

  • I would play this game, but I don't want to get caught and people think I'm a Satanist.

  • @Iteachu2beninja Too late... now people think you're retarded...

  • getting it today, yeah! cant wait to eat some hearts!

  • i always felt bad for the one on the left

  • @zippoboyu2 it never does anything

  • WHEN WAS IT ANNOUNCED HOW CAN I GET A PEEK HAHA BEST GAME IVE EVEAR PLAYED other than dead space....

  • AWESOME

  • i remeber before i got a ps3 EVERYBODY was raving about this game saying it was awesome and stuff and i go to gamestop recently and find the game for 10 bucks lol

  • @AnthonyTheAwesome500 thats because the game came out almost 3 years ago one of the greatest games ive ever played to bad there was no sequal i guess not that many people new about it.. the reason its not popular is becasue the online is very laggy and it sucks but other than that the story is amazing

  • @TheKre8ion Good news, a sequel was just announced

  • loved this game MAKE ME A SEQUEL 

  • @barker888 There is 1 coming out dude!

  • @barker888 your welcome.

  • @barker888

    The sequel is offically on the way :P

  • Best sound at 3:37

  • underrated game. yes its not that long at about maybe 6 ot 7 hours and the multiplayer isnt much. You probably wont find many people playing online anyway. but the game is fun. its got good graphics, good mechanics and good heartfelt story It shouldnt cost you any more than 20 bucks so its not like you will be throwing away 50 bucks on a game you dont like. So go on amazon and spend the 5 -1 0 bucks . best 10 bucks you will ever spend

  • Shouldn't games evolve ? I think the games i played in 2005 are better then the ones now

  • Black Hole + Euphoria engine for The Darkness 2 :P

  • @ChillyUK77 Are they better than the unreal engine?

  • @imnotstoned12 Sorry Euphoria isn't really an an all encompasing engine it's more of a physics engine that can work within other engines (i think, definetly not an expert) like Havok physics. I don't think The Darkness ran on the Unreal Engine, I think it ran on the same engine as Call Of Juarez BIB. The point I was making is that Black Holes in The Darkness are cool but the enemies that get sucked up into it just turn to ragdolls, with euphoria they would be trying to grab on to things etc.

  • this game seems like it should have been a PS3 exclusive

  • @TheSkullAssassin And... uhh why?

  • @TheSkullAssassin why? Everyone should be able to enjoy this game, especially PC gamers. This game would look sick on PC

  • i got this game for $2.00

  • @gtafanatic63 is it good?

  • @ch4nb0y yeah the darkness powers are verry enjoyable my mistake the game was $2.99 its amazing and very underated

  • @gtafanatic63 You got yours from Gamestop too?

  • @LGSPTJ yeah it was $2.99 good game

  • the game sucks because its 90% multiplayer

  • i thought it was okay... I just didn't the open/closed world feel of the game. At least at the earlier part. Stopped playing pretty early cause i couldn't figure out where to go and I kinda hated how enemies would just pop out of no where for no apparent reason.

  • Sadly,this game has a serious game-breaking glitch in one of the earlier levels.I've yet to see a patch,and I never seem to get through the glitch even though I've tried really hard.

  • i hate the right tentacle *pouts*.

  • poor little left-tentacle :(

  • @jonting91 I know the left tentacle never gets a heart =(

  • i got scared of my on character while player -_-'

  • @xxxSHAWN2008xxx lol cool

  • 1:17 OMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM

  • This game is awesome!

  • If it's a chick, does it devour their boob?

  • @chargerfighter1 Women have hearts, too...

  • @TheTomD

    I meant would it accidentally miss and grab the boob instead. Never said women don't have hearts.

  • They need to make another Darkness this game even after a couple of years graphicly and mechanics beat most of the games coming out now sooooo underated :(

  • I have not watched this clip yet but im 100% they will trash it just like every other game and compare it to Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, lets see if im right....

  • @TheKamikazeen Nope.

  • @TheKamikazeen

    This came out in '07 or '06. CoD:MW2 was nonexistent. Derp.

  • @TheKamikazeen LMAO! this game has been out forever dude, before COD MW2, thats pretty funny...

  • The black hole sucks dirty cocks, er, i mean COPS. yeah, that's right COPS.

  • @djkilldozer

    I see what you did thar.

  • I remember i got this game it was so good I loved it.

  • is this game scary ? do u have to kill monsters or zombies?

  • jackie is enemy of alan wake :D

  • @playaluka i know i said that in an aln wake walkthrough lol but jackie more bad ass then THE TAKEN

  • @playaluka he'll pown sissy alan any day

  • oh come on... it will come out for pc at some time right?

  • is this game worth $15?

  • @TheRazorWolf its worth 60$

  • @copi111 i mean is it worth the $15 and $60?? lol seriously.

  • @TheRazorWolf Yes, it's reduced to 15$

  • @TheRazorWolf I bought this game on release date, and to this day I can still pick it up and throughly enjoy myself with it, and that cost me $60, so yes it's definetly worth $15. It's just a really unique FPS that features a good story and very enjoyable gameplay.

  • @TheRazorWolf

    Absolutely! It's a game that I took a chance on and rented when it first came out despite the mediocre reviews. Beat it, and recently I purchased it for another play-through. The multiplayer isn't so hot, but the single player campaign is very well done. Controls are good, powers are cool, and the story is excellent.  For sure pick it up.

  • This game is too dark the otherworld level is gonna kills me everytime i play it

    so desperate so hellish so much that i could feel the dead the atmosphere is

    too creepy and i feel so bad i'm not gonna play it again after a week.

    Graphics is great and gameplay should have been called the the darkness side

    of First person shooter game it so satisfying and often too much i felt like i really

    killed someone in cold blooded and even eats their hearts!

    Technically it 8.5 but psylogically it 5.

  • I couldn't really get into this game the first time I played it but I might buy it again.

  • This game gets so weird but cool

  • One of ze best games ever

  • yahtzee was rite...he does look like a mix of kevin spacey, benicio del toro, and morticia addams (from the addams family)

  • To Quote the darkness...:"Your gift... Your heritage... Your Bourbon..."

  • gotta love mike patton!

  • the first time i saw the dude get half his head bit off in the graveyard, my jaw dropped, i shit my pants, and came in excitement, all at once...

  • i dont think so

  • dose this game have trophies?

  • @khubization the 360 has achievements, but sadly the ps3 has no trophies

  • this game is one of the most under rated and looked over games this gen

  • Actually, good hearts work too

  • The right tentacle is selfish.
