Joystiq writes: "There's not much we can say about our latest hands-on session with Dark Void that we haven't said five times before. The jetpackery? Still breathtaking. The vertical cover system? Still brilliant. The visual presentation -- well, you get the picture.

While many are multiplatform titles (though the best still appear to be Sony-exclusive), it is a large increase from last year's showing."

Joystiq recently played Dark Void again at CES in Capcom's suite at Planet Hollywood.

Graphics look even better, jetpacking around is still ridiculously enjoyable, etc.
