The Deal Factor reflects the value of a deal: it's a score ranging from 0 to 10 that is based on the game's average review score, the percentage of the price drop ("savings"), and the game's age.

... from the industry's most credible critics

Tuesday, February 07, 2012

IGN 8.0 The Darkness II (PC)
The Darkness II (360)

Prepare to feel the power.

GameSpy 8.0 The Darkness II (PC)

A gory horror shooter that manages to spatter some brains and heart on the story.

GiantBomb 8.0 The Darkness II (360)

Digital Extremes ably picks up where Starbreeze left off, crafting a satisfyingly brutal adventure that only rarely loses its way.

Game Informer 7.5 The Darkness II (360)

The Darkness II Review: A lovesick killer loses his soul

GameSpot 7.0 The Darkness II (360)
The Darkness II (PS3)
The Darkness II (PC)

The Darkness II is not the revelation its predecessor was, but ripping up occultists with your demon arms is a blast anyway.

1UP 6.9 The Darkness II (PS3)
The Darkness II (PC)
The Darkness II (360)

Developer Digital Extreme's Darkness sequel is equally parts inspired as it is bloody.

Splitkick 6.0 Duke Nukem Forever (PC)

Having previously played on an Xbox 360, I felt the game had muddy textures, terrible load times, and generally felt like trash. It turns out though, this game isn’t anything special, it does feel dated, but it’s not overly offensive and is certainly not one of the worst games ever made.
