Before you start reading, I WILL NOT be including any cheats, hints or walkthroughs for this game in this review. Anyhow, I first started playing this game roughly about a year ago and its literally that good, i just found it impossible to put the controller down. On some occasions, i even spent 12 hours a day on it! You start out and quickly learn that your main character, Jackie (I can not put any full names in the review) is a contract killer for the Franchetti crime family. Just because he may be a killer, it does not mean he does not have a conscience. He loves his Aunt Sarah (not in a dodgy way) and claims that Jenny is the only reason he bothers to get out of bed in the mornings. By now, you will have more than likely realised this is much more than your average FPS. It is set in a realistic and very detailed sort of world, inhabited by demons - Darklings, which you can suck up through vortexes to use against your enemies. Very handy. You think thats good? Jackie himself is infested with The Darkness - another kind of demon, which is so powerful, it will rip your enemies hearts clean out and chomps on it as a snack! Fed up with being taken for granted, maybe even pushed around at times, Jackie decides that enough is enough and sets out to put those who deserve it six feet under. But of course, it gets a whole lot more complicated. (SPOILER ALERT!!!) Towards the end of the game, even friends of Jackie's ask him to dispose of people who are giving them grief, of course you have the option to decline or put their request in your to do pile, but its always fun to knock them off. ""Another one bites the dust"", ha! (SPOILER ENDS) Generally, i think this is a very good game, good graphics, fantastic storyline and very well detailed. The way it has come down in price makes it even more affordable too. If you can get a well looked after 2nd hand copy, even better. I would urge anybody who is into this sort of thing to just go out and get it. I must remind you though, this is an 18+ for a reason. It contains strong bloody violence and language. Enjoy the game!
