A pretty good game but somethings are just feeling like it's missing something

This game is pretty good. I had never heard of darkness until now. But anyways the game and story are pretty nicely done just missing somet stuff.

The graphics are nice with not bad ais to deal with. The game places you as a contract killer hitting his 21 birthday and of course all birthdays has a surprise, well for you its something that you wish you can have in real life lol well for some of us.

The game allows you to have powers but the only way you can use them is mostly in the dark aka any lights hitting on ya will prevent the use of the powers which is pretty cool. The powers range from lifting objects and throwing at your enemies to ripping their hearts out...pretty sick I guess.

There is alot of areas to cover making it a some what open game style the down fall is that most of the areas have to be unlocked aka playing more of the story.

Some of the down falls in the game is there is really no day and night system in this game meaning its always dark making it pretty much as no worry game. Sometimes you wish you had the day and night system to make the game abit harder then able to run pass the lights and to the enemies faces to deal with them...o well. The game also lacks the open concept. Most of the buildings are closed or locked with a few open for you to do quests in. Weapons also are a pain to find, if you run out of ammo then you have to rely on your powers which don't work in the light, if you get stuck in a position with no ammo and power then you have to melee it which is pretty annoying. But overall the rest is pretty good

The game has a few gore parts which you will know when you buy it or rent this game. There are alot of finishing moves which can be preform when your face to face with your enemy, most of them are cool but they get old pretty fast. So if your the gore type or love to blow people away then this game might be for you. its a must buy for those into the first person shooting and power hungry players for the rest rent it.

O before I forget there is online but a few problems such as lag which can be over come after playing the match for a bit or playing wtih people around your area. The online those allows you to transform into a creature which is fast and deadly but of course nothing is more deadly then a guy holding a shotgun in your face.

I would tell you the powers and abilites but I would like to hold those back on this review since really it would give away alot of the game. So if you want to know more rent or buy.
