The Darkness II

So this game is bought during the steam summer sale too!
This is probably one of the most brutal games I have ever played, you are the host of the darkness. I think it's based from a comic called Darkness. You are playing as Jackie a mob boss or something like that. You have been holding the darkness inside you, or atleast you tried to. At the start you get attacked by some organisation, cult or something. That's when you releases the darkness you get badly hurt and it's your only way of survival since the darkness cant let the host die.
Is about hunting the organisation down, it's called "the brotherhood" and controlling the darkness. You get random flashbacks from your girlfriend sometimes, you saw when they murdered her. And you get some flashbacks when you are at a mentalhospital. The goal is to save your girlfriend from the darkness.
I think this game is awesome, you can kill people in so many different ways. Execute with your demon arms, eat their hearts for health.... the different executions got different boosts like on gives you health and one increases the ammo loot and so on.

The graphics are a bit like borderlands but better, but since I didnt like borderlands I had a tough start with this game, since the are both published by 2k games, but they dont have the same developers which is very good because I did not enjoy borderlands at all!

Pro:
The combat
Different executions
You get to give your character the talents you want
the story is amazing, even though I havent read the comic

Con:
The graphics looks like borderlands, but it's pretty neat! So it's more of a pro than a con but it ends up here anyway.
A bit short but it's a cool game anyhow!

Rating: 10/10 really good story!
