Dark Void

Overall rating: 2.5 out of 5

from 2451 members

Dark Void is a new sci-fi action-adventure game that combines an adrenaline-fuelled blend of aerial and on-foot combat set in a parallel universe called "The Void." Players will take on the role of Will; a pilot dropped into incredible circumstances. While on a routine air cargo flight his plane crashes in the Bermuda triangle leading him to be trapped in the Void. This unlikely hero soon finds himself swept into a desperate struggle for survival at the head of a group called The Survivors. Caught in the Void, these resistance fighters are battling to hold off a mysterious alien race that plans to threaten Earth. Dark Void's unique combination of in-air and on-ground combat creates a thrilling new gameplay dynamic to the third-person shooter experience. Taking 3D action to a whole new level, Dark Void's vertical combat system allows players to dangle from thousand foot drops as they take cover and drop enemies from above and below, bringing a whole new sense of vulnerability and thrill to the player. Defying gravity in vertical combat is only half the battle as, over time, Will is upgraded to a powerful rocket pack which allows for fierce in-air combat as gamers are able to fly through the Void at unparallel speeds shooting down anything that gets in their path. Blasting away at massive bosses has never been this much fun as Dark Void offers a unique grip system made up of a variety of grip-based minigames including skyjacking UFOs mid-flight.

On the Fence Rent.

By DarklordLorgar (10 reviews) from Crewe , 12 Aug 2011

THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS Show review anywayHide

After watching Zero Punctuations review on this game i thought id rent it rather than buy it. Which in retrospect was a good decision. The Game is very average and to quote from zero punctuation 'felt like the developers ran out of money', its criminally short about 6 hours game play, and at times can be rather repetitive. The Story is well rubbish i think they were going for a Rocketer (The Film) meets another world approach but more often than not I was like oh yer this game has a story....

However there are good parts the graphics are great and there a certain parts SPOILER here where you go into this flying outpost kill all in then fly out while it blows up.

Also easy gamer score i raked up 700 points with one playthrough.

Rent it if your on the fence about the game dont buy it.

By FrasBlade (53 reviews) from Hemel Hempstead , 12 May 2011

i was surprsingly pleased playing this game, was good fun and i enjoyed the whole experience. I suppose its just a matter of horses for courses as some people hated it. But its no way as bad as people say, quick to get the hang off and some great action sequences. worth a rent
