The Darkness screens

Select quotes:

Speaking of the PlayStation 3, 2K was very forthcoming during our demo when it came to discussing the benefits of the new system and how it would affect The Darkness. Because of the Blu-ray format, for example, Starbreeze plans to include additional videos that exploit the "television watching" feature which currently consists of the classic "Nosferatu" vampire silent film (in its entirety) and five 30-minute Popeye cartoons. The publisher isn\'t sure what the PS3-exclusive videos will be just yet, but we suggested an episode of Top Cow\'s old Witchblade TV series -- not because we think every game should have a moment of pure and total horridness, but because we think it would be funny. Send your damnation letters now.

Nice.

Additionally, Starbreeze is also looking into taking advantage of the PS3\'s tilt controller and is considering some possible changes with another feature we can\'t talk about yet.

Hmm?

The graphics looks so-so, not the best but not the worst either. IMO the game has a nice style to it. Also Starbreeze never disappoints so I\'ll be picking this game up for sure. Riddick rocked monkey balls.

Found some nice looking pics, they are pretty old though.





I wish they would release game play videos. I have only seen two videos of this game. One was from E3 2005 I think, showing a guy standing on a rooftop surrounded by his minions, pretty underwhelming, but the game seems to have progressed a lot since then. The other was a trailer from Comic Con, CG though so its hard to get a feeling of what playing the game is like.
Blow the lid already Starbreeze! The game is coming out Q1 2007 I think.

looks ok..i\'m kinda tired of seein all these 1st person shooters...still if this one can pull itself from the crowd, fans of this genre will be happily indulged...

Agreed, hopefully it will try something new. The idea of controlling the minions and the tentacles give me hope at least.
