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

WOW! This video game is off the HOOK! I never played such an awsome XBOX game. I only got to play like 45 minutes but I'm shocked on how good the game play and fighting is well put together. It's sad that FOX canceled DARK ANGEL, but the game is like 10 times better then the Buffy game. It's more life like and with all the cool gymnastic and... butt kicking action. From 1 to 10 I give this one a 9.5 it could have been a 10 but it's true about how Jessica Alba's 3D character looks more like someone else. ( Think Alias ) I just hope FOX desides to do more with DARK ANGEL plus a part 2 of this video game would ROCK!

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!!!

Well This Game is an Okay Game i can't Say it is the best but its just okay.

The Thing You Are going to Like about this Game is The Action and the hitting, it is Really Cool, you got Wall Back Flip Attack, Wall kick Attack, Back Flip and Aerial Side Roll, and also you can Stealth Mode, You Can Sneak Behind a thung Then Attack him.

You Play as max in the game, and Locan will Help You in your way. and the other Cool thing about this game is that it got the Original Storyline progresses beyond the televesion series and Features voiceovers by Jessica Alba and Micheal Weatherly.
Also It Got Exclusive Dark Angel Bonus Materials, including Jessica Alba Photo Gallary, Cast interveiws and Much more.

This Game is cool For Dark Angels Fans, it aint better Than Buffy the Vampire Slayer But it's Just an Alright Game So You might Rent it First, if you like it Than Buy it.

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

its the best show

I just recently got an X-box and was searching for good solid games. I purchased this based on the reviews I read at Amazon.com and was pleasantly surprised. This is a great game. It is fun and challenging without being impossible. The controls are easy to learn and the goals for each level are clearly stated before you begin. The graphics are good, although I did find a few problems with the camera angles, especially when near solid objects like walls, etc. Otherwise, I have no complaints. If you are looking for a solid game with challenges (not frustrations) that has a lot of replay value, GET THIS GAME!!

I read all the reviews on this game and I figured it was time for a more recent opinion. In spite of what most viewers said about this game; I brought it anyway!! First: People complain that they fail levels because someone saw them... ***NEWSFLASH*** It's a stealth-game. The object of the game is to complete the mission without being seen; what part of that was too hard to understand?? If you can't control the cat-like stealth abilities of Max; then buy yourself another game to play. I personally think that the enemies A-I level favors the Genome Soldiers (Metal Gear Solid PS1). Second: Those same people don't like the controls for this game either. I'll admit that the controls aren't the most advanced type that XBOX can offer, but with practice and precision you can master her combo attacks. The buttons are arranged x-punch b-kick a-jump/stealth roll y-throw/break necks L-stealth movement R-speed burst and she moves with the left analog plus other functions I don't have time to explain. It's similiar to many older games that required constant button pressing to create combo attacks like Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Double Dragon (Genesis) and River City Ransom (Nintendo). I don't find it impossible to control Max in this game; actually these controls are fairly easy when compared to more advanced control systems like Rainbow Six, Kill Switch, and Halo. As I said before if easy controls aren't what you want then buy another game with harder controls. ------------------------------ Now comes my ^_^ critism that got this game only 4 out of 5. I saw the quick glitches in the game which are not acceptable in any video game. That's my only gripe about this game!! The graphics are average, the music is cool (very upbeat), the story-line is excellent. Max is like a modern day Tombraider for the XBOX. I've never seen the Dark Angel movie and I don't recommend it to anyone, but I do like the video game. Finally: To all those people that complain about this game;my final advice to you is...Wipe the milk off your mouth, and stop whining like a baby!!!
