About the story: Jackie, as the host of darkness, will be forced to release them again - which gives unsuspected strengths and abysses revealed. The story drives a one hand by Jackie's inner workings - an attempt to get over the death of his girlfriend Jenny. On the other hand, an attack perpetrated on him and his people, and it is important to track down the perpetrators and to fathom their intentions and objectives - all depends, of course, throughout the darkness together.
This makes "The Darkness II" a very original shooter. Because where you can act at best, with dual-wield else, so you have to prove here that one is capable of multitasking - not my strengths, but doable; Here you can either use a two-handed weapon (grist or assault rifle) or (allows to aim it) or two small arms simultaneously. Moreover, can the darkness - unless the light is off - in the form of two demons arms (the left is to grab and throw objects, the right to direct hitting) use. Overall, it has four buttons so fully what to do.
All this in a very dark and brutal relentlessly staged, coherent story (at least I liked it that Jackie not consistently the hard-boiled type is flat, but also emotional and vulnerable shows). The cartoon-optics takes the game, in my opinion, not a piece of atmosphere.
These can be personalized with gained experience points to acquire or improve various talents and abilities. The scope of the campaign would be appropriate; In addition, there are still the vendettas that both in single player and can be played online, and again offers a small campaign with its own character plus individual skills.
Conclusion: bleak, varied, relentlessly, managed ...
PS: That here by the way is the first and only shooter in which I was able to get the platinum trophy. For through play three times had the game, but since it is the first shooter, in which I had to have the patience that is probably still another plus.
