E3: Hamza tells us how he would have made The Darkness II
The Darkness II has a sweet comic book style mixed with lots of blood and bullets. There are tons of awesome ways to rip, tear, and cut apart your enemies while simultaneously firing your two guns at them. That seems good enough for me, but not for Hamza. If it was up to him, he'd use an ancient evil of unimaginable power to sit around the house and be lazy. Come on, man, have some creativity! You can check out Hamza's ideas, as well as a lot of other new information, in his interview with Tom Galt of Digital Extremes, the developer for The Darkness II. The game will be out on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC come October 4, 2011. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Just in time for my b day! Love me some Estacado, but I'm on the fence with this one. If it was still Starbreeze it would be Day 1, not that I'm hating on the DE folks, i just worry when new devs take over. I'm the same with FEAR 3 right now. Good choice of music. "Building Steam with a Grain of Salt" is one of my favorite DJ Shadow tracks!

3:30 PM on 05.16.2013 Watch the worst Fallout game ever madeJordan and I have started a new game in our Couch Campaign, and it's one that I have been excited to play since we first began talking about the project. As a huge fan of the Fallout franchise and a lover of top-down, exploration shoot-em-up games, the pairing of the two could have been glorious. And Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel is, provided you think train wrecks can be glorious.
