PS3 - The Darkness - Trusted Reviews: Top 20 Games of the Year: Part One Trusted Reviews: Games of the Year - Part One.

As our Andy noted back in November, it has been a fantastic year for games, In fact, it's arguably been the best year ever. However, all that bounty has left us in a dilemma. We originally planned a top ten list for the end of the year, but looking at the long list of titles we've been forced to expand that to twenty - and even then we've had to sacrifice a few of our darlings and lose a couple of still great franchise updates that we felt didn't quite do enough to justify inclusion: Sorry Unreal Tournament III and Sega Rally, apologies Guitar Hero III, Football Manager 2008 and Pro Evo.

While we were playing The Darkness last week, someone popped their head into the video studio and asked, "Why are you playing Max Payne?" "This isn't Max Payne," we shot back, "Can Max Payne do this?" We proceeded to rip the beating heart out of some poor schlub and feed it to our writhing demon tentacles.

PS3 - The Darkness - Verboten: The Darkness Changed For Germany Looks like gamers in Germany are going to have to wait a little longer to play The Darkness on their Xbox 360s, and their version will differ quite a bit from what others are playing now in the state and UK. Probably the most major change needed before the game is released is the removal of Nazi symbolism, which of course hearkens back to a period of history that Germany isn't too proud of.

Other changes to the German 360 version include removal of four of the Darkling kill methods, and the ripping out heart animation being replaced with sucking out souls via a green mist. Weak.

Starbreeze's first-person action game The Darkness is out on Xbox 360 now and you can feast your eyes on the game's multiplayer component right here. The trailer features just under a minute of in-game footage and, as you can see, gunplay and horror is as much part of the multiplayer part as it is the single-player campaign with plenty of hardcore FPS action and shape-shifting into nasty beasties. Take a look below - and remember: it's for the eyes of those 17 years of age or over, thanks to ...
