It happens every year. Games get announced for fall/holiday season launches. Then those same games later get pushed out of the crowed fall/holiday season into early the following year. The Darkness II is the latest victim of this, and surely it won’t be the last we see before the year lets out.
Previously planned for a fall 2011 launch on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, The Darkness II has been rescheduled to a February 7, 2012 North American launch (Feb. 10 internationally). So you’ll have to wait a few more months to experience the joys of Quad-Wielding FPS mayhem.
If you’re attending San Diego Comic-Con later this week, though, you’ll at least be able to get a taste of The Darkness II, with 2K Games all set to provide eight playable demo kiosk stations and co-host a panel entitled “Spreading The Darkness: From Comic Book to Video Games and Entertainment,” which will take place on Thursday, July 21, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. PDT.
Matt Litten is a 28 year old from-the-womb gamer turned video game reviewer/blogger and current editor/owner/operator of VGBlogger.com. Matt got his first taste of gaming as a youngster on the NES and Atari, and the rest is history from there.
In 2004, three years removed from high school and still looking for a career direction in life, Matt landed his first gig in the video game review business writing for the now-defunct website BonusStage.com. After the sad and untimely close of BonusStage, the former staff went on to found VGBlogger.com, and after a short stint as US Site Manager for AceGamez Matt turned his attention to VGBlogger, and to this day is dedicated to making it one of the top video game blogs in all the blogosphere.
Matt is a fair-minded reviewer and lover of games of all platforms and types, big or small, hyped or niche, big-budget or indie. But that doesn't mean he will let poor games slide without a good thrashing when necessary.
