Wasted effort? What effort?

There are some games made that beg the question "What was the point?" But Dark Angel takes this situation to a whole new level. Quite frankly, I've seen better games for the Sega Saturn. This game totally wastes the PS2's capabilities, with no movies, cutscenes, or even spoken dialogue. There was neither an effort to tell a story or some background information, nor was there any introduction to the lead character Anna and her personal story. It also suffers from poor delivery of details. One would not know which weapon (Axe or Sword), or armor (leather or plate), is stronger; that information is never displayed. Additionally, the instruction booklet was worthless. It too fails to clairify the difference of strength between weapons and armor. It also makes a dismal attempt to describe the differences between monsters, only giving a vague description of each, without a pictures of examples. In short, this game isn't worth its weight of plastic. A wasted effort, if there was any effort made.

This game is very horrible. I rarely give out one stars but this game so greatly deserves it.
GRAPHICS:4/10. Pretty bad but not so horrible that you can't bear to look at it. Back grounds are actually done quite nicely.
SOUND:4/10: There are some great scary growls and moans but there is no voice acting and the main character doesn't even talk.
REPLAY:10/10. If you had the guts to play this game twice it would be just as boring as the first time ;D
CHARACTERS:1/10: What characters? There's the main character and we know nothing about her.
STORY:1/10. It's hardly fair making a rating of the story because there simply is none.
CONTROL:9/10. Ok OK I'll admit there is a good side to this horrible game it's extremely easy controls.
CINEMAS:1/10. Huh? What cinemas? There's no story so why would there be movies? Why would there be anything good about this game?
OVERALL FUN: 2/10. This game is a crime against god. I recommend this game only if you enjoy games that [are bad].
A good Idea destroyed

Dark Angel seemed like it had such potential to be something better than what it was. But in the end it totally fizzles and dies with a stake through the heart. The game is long and promises hundreds of hours of gameplay. I will give it that. But while that is a high point the game drowns in a sea of lows. The game has no cut-scenes or characturs to talk to. The story line is almost no existent except for what you read off the back of the case or in the manual. The story could have been much more engrossing its almost like they set you up and then leave you hanging. All you do is run around from town to town and other places hacking through hundreds of enemy`s. While Diablo was the same thing at least it had some sort of story to back it up. This is just mindless dungeon hack material. There is some music although being merely OK is not great. The sound affects are sub par and the graphics are not all that great when it comes to pushing the limits of the PS2. Plain and simple the game delivers almost nothing. In the end it promises 400+ hours of gaming I quit playing after less than 15 minutes and that was all I needed.
Horrible

this game is not exactly top notch, hell its lower than bottom notch. i must say that Armorines is just as fun as this game, and thats not good in any humanly possible way...
Graphics-6: the graphics ar pretty bad, Anna does random and stupid stuff in the inventory but the backgrounds are done fairly nice. its a 3/4 overhead view so you cant see much detail on anything, but the sheer number of monsters that can appear on-screen at once is amazing. but with a little down scale on monster # appearance and background textures and a little down-tweaking on character smoothness this could have been done on the PS1, and it would have been better.
Replay-2: if you have the gut to play through this for an hour or more your a brave man who desreves thousands of dollars and a memorial all to himself. if you can pick up the game, play it for 5 mminutes and see that it wreaks ...then your a human being. if you play through the game once, all the way, your godly.
Story-1: what kinda ...game has no story? this one is a good example, you immediately strat off in a fight ina village, the game will pick up after that right, umm NO!!! if you hate story i suggest getting this game.
Control-10: if you can tfigure out the controls you should be shot and dumped in the hoover damn, after that your remains shall be picked clean by seagulls.
Fun-3: sometimes of your bored beyond humanly possible reason you might play this for a quick burst of enjoyment while you hack up endless streams of invincible monsters for about 15 minutes before you need to go puke for every minute of gameplay. also you might wanna hit your head so you dont remember ever playing the gme as it will shatter your humanity.
Ouch

The game, while very cool looking just tosses you into the mix and while your trying to figure out who these people are and why you are running from city to city trying to save them the vampires are all over you.
Where's Buffy When you need here?!?!

I wouldn't touch this game with a ten thousand foot pole. I'm mad because I wasted 3 bucks renting it. I want the three bucks back. I should get paid to play this game it is so bad. This game is terrible. I'm sure glad that I didn't buy it. There is no story, no graphics, no nothing. It isn't a game, it is a virus that has somehow seeped into the playstation 2 market and infested it with the bad smell of a terrible and ruthless boring plague. Don't even look at this game. Avoid it at all costs. Whoever made this should pay you to play this game. I'm serious. I wouldn't play this game if I found it on the street. I would destroy it. It is that bad. NES games are ten times better. So stay away from this game.
Don't even bother.

This is the worst game I have ever seen. There is no plot, no story, horrible graphics. The only good thing that the game has is the name.
Don't buy it, it will be a total waste of money.

If you every played Loaded, you'll recognize this game right away. Good action, but lacking in story. You start the game, and immediately you're fighting, with no history, no explanation, anything.
The saving grace of this game is decent graphics, smooth gameplay and the pure joy of slashing through TONS of enemies.
If you're looking for pure action with no plot, go for it. If you're looking for depth, try something else, such as Soul Reaver...
