    Hey guys, here is a new installment in my still going community quick looks. This one was actually suppose to be posted last week but because of my internet being really bad, by the time it was put on youtube it was late Sunday night. And of course with E3 and all I figured posting it then would have been pointless. 
     
    That aside, this weeks game is The Darkness. I started playing it again recently because of all the buzz around The Darkness 2. Its probably one of my favorite games this generation and one I still enjoy it greatly today. Thanks for watching and remember, I love feedback.

    Wait, when did you guys do the Dark Forces thing? An obscure game that I missed? How? Otherwise, OK.

    Wow you guys aren't completly ignorant..... Maybe if you lot had a bit more references to other games when you explain things so the viewer might remember how something feels in the game because they've tried it in another game... 
    But yeah nice job  :)

    From what I saw, these look pretty good. I'm probably going to get a HD PVR soon and make some videos like this.

    Keep it up!

    Yeah somehow nobody saw that one. Maybe it was the time I put it out.

    We could just find a place to list everyone's quick looks. Maybe a guide or something?

    I actually just finished this game last night.  The first time I tried to play it was three years ago and I really didn't care for it.  Well, I still really didn't care for it but I pushed on to complete it.  I find a lot of the game design to be odd.  I mean you got this darkness power and you have to spend half your time shooting out lights just to use the stupid thing.  Pretty much just end up going guns only at one point as its just easier.  You sure would think that seeing a guy with tentacles and stuff coming out of him would freak out the mobsters but I guess they are hardcore thugs and nothing scares them....... haha.
