I like how his name is a combination of "bot" and "toot".

I bought "The Darkness" for $8.99 from a person on eBay. I know one thing about the game. I guess it has a couple good "character" moments. I'm otherwise going in completely blind. I may read the manual before bed. I hope it works in 1080p mode. Now that I have an HDTV, I am a 1080p snob. (NOTE: I do not own a Blu-Ray TV.)

So here's hoping.

I enjoyed this game- enough that I played through it enough times to get all of the collectibles and I mean to play through it again at some point on the hard difficulty level.

There's a bit of a learning curve on it, though. Originally, a certain part a little ways in handed my ass to me repeatedly. Eventually, one gets the hang of it, though, so keep at it.

Well, there can only be one Freddie Mercury. We're not ready for an imposter yet.

You know me and learning curves. I don't learn a god damn thing. I'd like a learning c- I don't know enough about graphs to go where I wanted to go with this sentence.

I will say that it takes a special group of developers to work for years on a project called "THE DARKNESS." That's the sort of mindless devotion to THE PRODUCT for THE VIDEO GAME SYSTEM that I don't know if I could ever pull off.

But I guess it all worked out well for THE PLAYERS.

Heh, graphs. My biggest gripe with the game is that too many of its achievements (since, yeah, I do take a look at those) are for its multiplayer slayer modes. It's annoying when every game makes some sort of weak grab at being the next big multiplayer versus game.
