Comments:
only played chunks of the first one maybe i should as POItjie to lend me his, but from what rage showed this game has some serious promise, im definately going to get the DEMO
I'm so going to get this demo. Smuroh you can borrow my copy of Darkness when i finish it first. not sure when that will be. Darkness 2 looks awesome, can't wait to try the co-op.
Darkness 2 is going to be incredible - four-player co-op missions, a full, super stylish singleplayer mode and a really intriguing, dark story... sounds like fun to me!
Jeepers!!! What's with all the fanastic demos coming out this. Already downloaded Asura's Wrath and FFXIII-2 and cost me more then 2gb. It's still the middle of the month and my main isp account is almost ZERO and now more demos. I think it's time to switch to my other account because i want HECK i need those demos.
