As long as people continue to buy this garbage, the developers will continue to produce this trash. Anyone that has had the displeasure of playing this game will no what I'm talking about. Kill 10 men in under 60 seconds or die! Wow! What fun! Or later on in the game... If the enemy sees you, you die! Wow! This just keeps getting better! After about 5 levels, the game is nearly impossible to play even on the easy level. You can't even save your progress until the end of each level. If the developers cared even a little bit about this game, they would've at least allowed your character to move while you're shooting your X5 gun. Spare yourself the pain, and don't buy this game. This is by far the biggest embarrassment to hit the XBOX.

I bought Dark Angel a long time ago, and I loved it! Although, it is extremely difficult and I can't pass most of the levels. When I worked myself through the game, it got harder and sucked even more! Unless Dark Angel is your IDOL, do not spend any cash on this hunk of junk!

its the best show

I rented this game over Ghost Recon 2, that was a grave mistake, because this game suckes, trust me do not get anywhere whithin a thousand miles from this game. To make a long story short, if you see it, smash it, it's bad, REALY, REALY BAD. Stay away trust me, do not go through the pain of this game.

AWESOME!!!

This game rocks!!! As a fan of the show,I am so glad that I can continue on the wonderful experience of the show in this awesome game.They did a great job at capturing the essence of the show's post-pulse Seattle world. Dark Angel fans will not be disappointed.

For those not familiar with the show, you are Max, a genetically enhanced super-soldier who escaped from the government lab that created her when she was a child, and has been on the run ever since. You are guided through the game by "Eyes Only", a renegade cyber-journalist out to stop corruption.The game has two main features--stealth and fighting.

Stealth--really cool once you get the hang of it. In most levels, you have to try to stay undetected by security. You sneak down walls, and peak around the corner. If someone is there, you make a noise to draw them to you, and just when they reach the edge of the corner you're hiding behind, you jump out and break their neck with a satifying CRUNCH, remaining undetected.

Fighting--the fighting moves are spectacular!! You can do some awesome backflip kicks and jump kicks off walls and stuff. You build up your "rage" meter as you fight, and when it's full you can engage the Rage Mode to kick some serious booty.

Definately a 5 star game!!!

Better than buffy!

i have played both the ps2 and xbox version, as there was very little differnce between them. This game reminds me a lot of buffy the vampire slayer only better. The motion isnt as stiff as it was in buffy. The xbox version had a little more fluid motion as the fighting was felt almost like dead or alive. Like I said the difference is very little. Dark angel has many alphets like buffy, except more prettier. The fighting is very good. The part i really hated about buffy was that u can only do 3 hit combos when u press the same buttton again, but in dark angel u can link a lot more moves when u button mash. Enemies range from thugs to what it looks like burglars (I havent seen the show at all so i dont know what significance those ppl have to Dark Angel) the atmospheres are kool. The only thing they should work on is dark angels face, it sorta looks like jessica alba, but not really. The thing that i love the most of course is the motion. its great. i think it is 60 frames per second two times as much as buffy. and max does some acrobats and gymnastic "stuff" like flips and aerial "stuff".

i really liked playing this game, but i only played it for lik 30 minutes so i really dont know the true essence of this game

Please, end the misery!

How do I start? Where do I begin?? Dark Angel the series kicked "mucho butto" when it was aired, and I, along with thousands of others mourned its premature demise in favour of Mr Whedons inferior Firefly (now also axed. HA!).It was a slam-dunk of a premise that lent itself to any and every format: Film, TV, Anime, and of course, video games. Now when i heard a game was being made I was on cloud 10.5 never mind 9. So imagine my disapointment when I slapped this miserable excuse of a video adaptation into my prestine Xbox.

The nearest simularity to this game is Fighting Force N64, only the camera's so far back even THAT shoddy game looks like a classic in comparison. Don't get me wrong, it's not easy making a decent video game and these guys probably thought they had a good stab at it, but then Pete Waterman thought he had a good stab at producing OTV's debut single. Nuff said there!

When will the game industry learn from all the other entertainment industries? Only entrust TOP game franchises to TOP game making talent!

4/10 (for minamal effort)

1/10 (for potentially killing a top franchise)

ROLL ON ALIAS!

Save system is very poor

The game is fairly well done and the moves are cool. But the saving system is poor. Several levels are extremely easy to complete to get to a save (one level between saves is killing 3 guards and that is it). And then the next level will be 20+ mins of playing, killing 25+ guards.

Not enough time or thought went into where to put the saves in order to keep the frustration levels in line. No one likes having to redo large portions of a game because the saves are not well thought out.

Dark Angel developers should take some time and learn from Splinter Cell developers on how to do saves.

BEST GAME EVER!!!

i love the dark angel game!!it has amazing action, tons of moves and the characters actually look and have the voices of the ones on the tv show (max and logan). i admit at the beginning it was a little hard to find out what to do but every game has at least one problem right? and if u get past this one the game rocks. this is the kind of game that u can play over and over again because the fighting is so amazing, and you are always unlocking new moves. i was as devistated as any hard core DA fan when the show got cancelled, and was over joyed when i heard there was a video game. if you think this game sucks its probably becaus you have hardy taken the 5 minutes at the beginning to figure out how to play. this is what this game is about a cat-burglar and you have to have a brain in your head to be one, its not all easy you sneak by guards, take a out transgenics, save your "siblings", and help logan on his crusades,but even through all of this a girls gotta look good right?
two words --- BUY IT!
