Dark Sector: Another victim of its own hype. With development starting as early as 2000, all the delays and revamps created a steady loss of interest in both the public and the enthusiast press alike. As an office favorite of ours, we feel most critics shrugged it off with a “fun, but nothing special” as a result of failing to live up to almost a decade of promises (copy/paste: Too Human).
According to a manager at our local GameStop, Dark Sector saw a $20 price cut after a scant two weeks, shot back up to $60 the next week, plummeted still lower a week later, where today you can find it just about anywhere for $9.99 brand spankin’ new. We say it’s not only worth that asking price, it makes the perfect birthday gift when you want to give off the illusion that you spent far more money than you actually did.
