I really liked the game, but jebus it was really short.. I'd feel slightly cheated if i had payed full price for this game.
Makes me wonder if i should go buy the original for my PS3, should be rather cheap now.

Finished it and LOVED it but it was damn short, which I actually doesnt care much nowadays.
Ending spoilerus:
 Spoiler: | I think I am the only one who likes Asylum ending better:P
Real ending is kinda bullshitty. Why did she changed into the Angelus. Why the fuck would Angleus be trapped in Darkness dimmension... and how did it get into jenny.
Anyway. Awaiting Darkness3 where Jackie escapes that weird hell and fight Angelus. |
overall, ending was good but first game had much better and felt more complete

(Finally) finished it, what a nice surprise. The demo didn't impress me that much, mostly because the action-packed levels had no cohesion, but the full game..I really liked it. It's consolish, linear and quite short, but fun, and the mix of shooting + powers worked perfectly well.
The story was also pretty satisfying (I got the "true" ending) and everything from animations /visuals to music and voice acting was great. I's say it's a solid 8/10.
PS: I still want to play the first one

Just finished it and I have to admit it was better than I expected.
The demo felt average at best, but the full game is actually pretty fun. The vendetta side missions seem kind of interesting, too. Might be worth playing through those just to find the other relics.

Better yet, is there a site that deals with this sort of thing? Explains stories and so on for games you haven't played? |
There's a pretty cool (but swift) explanation of the story when you start a new game, i don't really think there's much more to know than what the game mentions at that point

I also played for maybe 20 minutes, but I can no longer. The shooting feels decent but the FOV is horrid and I read they're going to patch it, I'll wait till then |
It's probably best to wait for an official version, but there IS an unofficial fix out; WidescreenFixer.
http://www.widescreenfixer.org/
It's got a plugin for Darkness II and it works rather well, though the trade-off due to the forced FOV is that you gain a bit of fish-eye effect.

Great game again |
Agreed completely . It's short but extremely intense, maybe the devs could have added some more levels but who knows, they could have ruined the perfect pace.  |

Doesn't that work?
(Apparently vertical FoV so a lower value than normal is correct, 60 to 70 or such I believe it was, of course higher for multi-monitor users.)
http://www.widescreenfixer.org/
Or did you mean via a patch.
(No patch released so far.)
EDIT: Or maybe vertical was for Amalur, still any higher than 65 and I can see the end of the weapon model which is probably not meant to happen.
(Polygon saving so there's just a hole in the stock or you see Johny's dislocated arm, ha ha.)

Do you have proper violence in the game guys? I have seen on many vids that the tentacles have brutal finishers like ripping guy's spine out, ripping them apart or shattering the skull. I have nothing like more like aussie german version. SKIDROW RLS.
sar·casm | \ ˈsär-ˌka-zəm \
1: a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to cut or give pain
2a: a mode of satirical wit depending for its effect on bitter, caustic, and often ironic language that is usually directed against an individual
b: the use or language of sarcasm

Why even play a game if you skip story cutscenes and conversation ? How can you judge about the story reclaiming that it is boring?
Y U NO SEE CUTSCENES ????
