The Darkness II quad-wields some new trailers
2K has dropped a slew of new gameplay trailers for you would-be The Darkness II fans. The first (found above) dives into the mysterious Brotherhood, the group out to strip Jackie Estacado's ability to control The Darkness. Apparently these are some bad dudes, but that doesn't make Jackie a saint. The other three videos offer a closer look at some of these coveted abilities: Swarm, Black Hole, Gun Channeling, Quad-Wielding, and Jackie's adorable Darkling. Prior to this, my interest in The Darkness was minimal. I've got to say though, these powers look way too cool.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)I'm loving the guy telling Jackie's story in the 1st trailer. He reminds me a bit of Steve Buscemi in Desperado, going round a bunch of different bars telling the story of El. 1:00 PM on 02.14.2013 Roses and tears: 10 depressing videogame romancesValentine’s Day inspires a variety of emotions.
