About
Inspired by the popular comic book series produced by Top Cow Productions, Inc., The Darkness II is an intense first person shooter that delivers a twisted and gripping narrative of tragedy, modern crime drama, and supernatural horror.
Players will be taken down the brutal and personal path of Jackie Estacado, head of a New York crime family and wielder of an ancient and ruthless force of chaos and destruction known as The Darkness.
It’s been two years since Jackie Estacado used The Darkness to kill the men responsible for his girlfriend’s murder. He’s been unable to shake the memory of Jenny’s death since bottling up his supernatural power and now The Darkness wants out. A sudden, unprovoked attack by a mysterious organization known as the Brotherhood heralds the start of a full-scale war and opens the door for The Darkness to reemerge, setting Jackie on a journey to hell and worse.

Reviews
Same jank at high fps where you have to lock it at 30 to not be stuck, the highest difficulty being really cheap at times and lacking some other polish in terms of visual clarity. Still regardless of that it holds up well, story wise a little predictable and too edgy at points so a product of its time really. Gunplay and everything feels nice, worth a play through if you like other shooters from 2K.

Ótimo jogo! Curto, extremamente divertido e com uma história que dá uma continuidade excelente aos eventos do primeiro game (que, por sinal, também é ótimo). Vale muito a pena pegar em uma promoção, já que o preço fica ridiculamente barato. É um verdadeiro clássico da época do Xbox 360, um tempo em que os jogos eram feitos focados na diversão e em entregar uma narrativa legal de acompanhar. O maior problema do jogo — longe de dar spoilers — é o gancho final. Ele deixa uma ponte gigantesca para um terceiro game que logicamente deveria acontecer. Mas, infelizmente, na indústria de hoje, onde a maioria dos jogos vive de dopamina rápida e barata, cores vibrantes e fórmulas feitas para agradar um público carente de intelecto, um título como The Darkness (que é o total inverso disso) acaba esquecido. Pelo visto, ficaremos na imaginação até que algum dia alguém decida tirar o projeto da gaveta e nos mostre o verdadeiro fim dessa história.
super fun, had a blast back in the day playing it. Would recommend.
Brings back my childhood !

Games were way better back in the days. The game truly feels like a relic from a bygone era even though its not that old, in a good way.
This game is absolute peak..a true classic, love the comic book art style, and the mafia-esque/supernatural feel to it. A very unique game in a sea of first-person shooters, kinda reminds me of how simple yet fun games used to be, definitely worth it this one.
