The game is going to be very good, if it's better than the original game, then this game is a must-buy.

Start-Select is great now, I could only complain about the length, I think you have much more information you could pass on in an extra 15 minutes. Keep them coming!

Arghh, it's hard to wait to play Butcher Bay HD when I could just get it for Xbox, but I want to play it with the improved looks and refinements. I'm loving The Darkness right now, so I can't wait for this.

Well, they also said that the aiming was pretty unresponsive and it also looks like the atmosphere and graphics/animations were toned down a lot. I agree with them, from the limited multiplayer footage shown, it doesn't look too impressive. Good thing the singleplayer is said to be around 20hrs along.

Riddick: Dark Athena will be great. I'm not to bummed out that the multiplayer mode isn't getting a good word 'cause its the story of the single campaign mode I worry about, and so far its spotless.

Wow. Dark Athena is really impressive. I don't understand why they didn't like the multiplayer just because it was like unreal tournament. Unreal was a great game, and they wanted the multiplayer to be more like call of duty, which also has a great multiplayer, but calm down, it's good to see that some games like to change up the style of modern multiplayer games.
