Inside Mac Games has posted a new review of 2K Games' The Darkness II. The story driven first person shooter puts players in the role of Jackie Estacado, a crime boss with supernatural powers who must do battle with even darker forces than himself.

Graphically, The Darkness 2 embodies its comic book origins with cel-shaded graphics and a vibrant art style. It looks great and the many contrasts on display help enemies stand out and environments shine. There are a few stereotypical locations such as a deserted fair, graveyard and smurfette house, but this doesn't hurt as everything is well designed. Your Darkness arms are a shady blue with pulsing purple lines and they hiss and wave about menacingly. Guns look and feel good and everyone is well animated. Even character faces have believable reactions and expressions.

This game's a lot more fun than I expected. Skipping all the storyline doesn't get me lost at all, its fairly linear in development, as with most games like this, but the action's great.
