Just yesterday I went over to my friends house. He just bought guitar hero and we played for a while. It is a lot of fun, and I was sure I wanted it until I realized the darkness just came out. I realize GH is $30 more, but they both appeal to me. Anyone want to share their opinion here?

Two totally different games, not comparable in any way, both worth owning. Please make your own decision.

I'm not asking you to compare and contrast the games on points like graphics and gameplay. Just tell me which one you enjoyed more. I am hoping to find people who have actually played the Darkness mostly.

It depends on your personal opinion. The Darkness looks cool, and I want it but I can never knock Guitar Hero. I love the Guitar Hero games, and Guitar Hero 2 on the 360 is my favourite. I have spent many, many hours playing Guitar Hero 2 so I would recommend that but I haven't played The Darkness so that could be just as addicting and fun. You really have to do the reading and decide what you want because the games are totally different but both look great. I would actually say get both but thats a lot of money, I don't even have enough money to get The Darkness on its own at the moment. :wink:

As a single player choice, I would say The Darkness all the way, it's the most fun I've had with an FPS in a long time & the story is fantastic, (better than most movies). As far as something to whip out when other people are around, it would have to be GH2 because it's easy to learn & fun when you can pass it around with others.

You're probably best of waiting for GH3 or Rock Band as the guitar is pretty rubbish unless you have tough fingers(fret lines between buttons rub as does the gap connecting the 2 guitar halves). There are only a few songs available for download aswell as they were expensive so there was a backlash and now there are no new songs coming out for download.

Hmm, talk about different games.

I haven't played the Darkness yet, so I can't really comment on it, but I do have Guitar Hero II, and I really enjoy it. Guitar Hero II is a great party game with friends, especially if one of them also has a guitar.

I've heard and read that The Darkness an enjoyable (primarily single-player) FPS shooter. It is supposed to have a great story, though short, and somewhat lackluster multiplayer -- from what I've heard.

The decision is really up to you.
