In DARKEST OF DAYS, you'll get to experience some of the most varied game play ever released in one title. Things will never get stale as you travel to distant times and fight alongside people from that period. Fighting in Antietam (the bloodiest day of the American civil War) feels much different than fighting on the side of the Russians at Tannenberg (where the Russians withstood 140,000 causalities in WWI). Fight in FIVE different Time Periods. Whether it's in Pompeii, Antietam, WWI, WWII, or Little Big Horn you will fight with real weapons from the time period. You will battle against enemies that fight in different ways, all reflective of how fighting was done at the time. Participate in EPIC Battle scenes. You will fight against the Confederates (and the Union at times), facing a staggering number of troops, all fighting in unison. Ready, aim…steady men FIRE! You will jump from the trenches in WWI to lead an attack against the Huns. You will fire artillery to hit distant targets. You will defend to the last man!
Now, by no means is this gasme of the year material, but it is a good time killer, if not for a few flaws. Graphics are last gen, audio is decent, story is a very interesting premise. If you can look past the graphical shortcomings,it starts off on a good note, and the story is explained fairly well as you progress. The game slows a bit in the middle, to the point of tedium, but the last few missions redeem the game, and ties it nicely. Worth a try if noting else to play and looking to kill time
This is a budget title and surely shows it. Definitely don't come to this game looking for something revolutionary. It is silly, but the concepts actually make for a b-movie experience, so you'll have fun if you treat it as such. Also, stupid easy to S-rank, so that's something too :D
There's too many good shooters out there to even recommend renting this one. This game has a great concept but falls flat in the execution. Poor graphics and boring AI, this game didnt last longer than 30 minutes in my Xbox 360 before it was back in the mailbox
