The Darkness

The Good
- Competent story, fantastic characters writing. Elevated by the voice-acting. - Unorthodox gameplay for a first-person shooter, lots of NPC interactions, exploration. Gunfight is mostly good. - Semi-open world with side-quests and pretty creative collectibles. - One of the best musical scores in the history of video games (so far).

The Bad
- Lots of story or design decisions that are just weird or underdeveloped. - Same goes for most of the Otherworld levels. - The engine is held together with a duct tape and a prayer. Occasional bugs and events not working as they should. - Why does this needs a multiplayer? Which is dead anyway.

The Bottom Line
One of a kind, despite every single bug.
