The Darkness

1001 Video Games

The Darkness appears in the book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die by General Editor Tony Mott.

German version

In the German version almost all blood, flame textures on burning enemies, hurt enemies after shoot outs, ragdoll effects on corpses, several fighting moves and the possibility to spear enemies with the demon arm were removed. Additionally the player now eats the enemies souls instead of their hearts; to accompany that the animations for this were changed. In the bonus material several comic pages with swastikas (the whole pages; not just the symbols) were removed. A detailed list of changes can be found on schnittberichte.com (German).

Graffiti

All the tags and street-art you see in the game was done by a group of Swedish graffiti artists.
