If it's half as good as the TV show, It will be a [super] game.<
I can not believe that a good show like Dark Angel could be cut. I should have realized it was going to be cut last seasion because of other shows and movies playing in the time spot of Dark Angel. And it was starting to get really interesting. I don't think the networks even gave the show a honest chance. There have been any number of shows that took a couple of seasons to build a fan base. I hope that everyone who liked or at least would like to see Dark Angel back please let everyone know.

The graphics are good, even though they make Jessica Alba look more like Jennifer Garner from Alias. But the fight scenes between the guys get your adrenaline pumping! Buy the game and you won't regret it! There are a ton of levels and after you beat the final level theres a suprise ;-). Thank you for supporting Dark Angel.
Don't miss it!!!!!

First of all, I haven't played the game so this review may be subject to change. But....
If you loved Tomb Raider you are going to die over this game. Think of it as a Lara Croft/Spiderman combo mutant with a few surprises to make it a complete original hit!
The graphics, the stealth/combat system, the sound,...all are stunning (which will rock the full power of the PS2/XBox consoles). My best reference is to check out the demo movie located at a number of sites. You'll see.
My wife and I are dumbfounded over the cancellation of the show. I wish they would continue it. But hey..that's show biz, eh?
More than a rental, that is for sure. Rock on folks!
p.s. With Tomb Raider not coming out until February...Dark Angel is a die hard appetizer for Croft-holics!
Excellent Game!

This is such a great game! There are objectives and many different opponents. You don't just punch and kick, you can fly off walls and throw enemies into barrels. There are many other moves, too! This game is one of the best games ever made! This is the last memory of Dark Angel. I will never forget James Cameron's Dark Angel series!
FOX made a big mistake cancelling this show...

The main reason the tv-series it didn't live up to FOX's desired expectations is because of the time slot it had. I wish I could meet the person(s) who decided to drop the show and smack them in the face for being so stupid. Dark Angel will forever live in my mind as one of the best origonal shows that ever graced prime time television.
This game is awesome. I highly recommend it to anyone, especially fans of the show.

To cut right to the chase, how much you like this game will depend on how much you liked the show. If you're expecting it to be a continuation of the plot, you'll be disappointed too. The plot in this game makes no sense in context of the show - It's supposed to take place after the fall of Manticore, but there's no period in the show where it could have happened. Anyway, all that aside, the game itself really could have been great, but it seems to have suffered from a rushed schedule. There's a lot of fun to be had here, the fighting engine is suprisingly deep, and there's a lot of options with stealth. The missions themselves aren't very imaginative though, and neither are the level designs. It's your basic point-a-to-point-b design. As you get later in the game, stealth is required of you and being seen at all is game over. On the down side, it suffers from a funky camera system, and somewhat muddy graphics. The control can be funky at times as well, and the bosses are a snore.
There's a good number of extras though, a photo gallery of (mostly) Jessica Alba, interviews with various cast members, and a 'coming soon' promo video for the DVD Release of Season One in North America.
I miss Dark Angel

Just to start off-I loved the series and that is what made me buy this game. It has a tendency to be a bit on the easy side...then again, I haven't finished it yet. (I just bought it two days ago). The fighting is awesome and it is just a fun game to get involved with. Sure it's point a to point b and could have gotten more intricate, but it still has an amazing entertainment value. I think if you are a fan of tomb raider and games like tomb raider you will like this one too...I do!!
Series Power!

I have to admit that after actually playing the game I was surprised. I hated it even more than I thought I could.
Did anyone notice that the war ended about the same time Dark Angel did? Dark Angel was a force that caused human suffering. Every day I wake up and thank the good lord that Jamsey Cameroony isn't in television anymore. Good riddance Dark Angel and good riddance James Cameron [sic?].
Please don't unlease anymore licensed [stuff] like Dark Angel the Game on our favourite consoles. ..
More of a rental...

It took me about three days to beat this game, so I classify it as short. The story isn't that great and has hardly anything to do with the show. The camera angle is annoying sometimes, but R3 can be used for that. The game does not allow very much freedom, and there's not a lot of strategy. The graphics are good. This and the action and moves are probably the best things about this game. If you feel you need to play it, rent it because if you buy it it will just lay around gathering dust.
Best Game Ever

This game is awesome! It has great graphics and is different every time. When you are fighting and do a really cool move it goes into slow motion and is very cool to watch, for example, when you do a wall kick (run up wall, turn and kick enemy in face)it slows down and you even see the guy fly back and hit a dumpster (which makes a pretty cool sound!) There are so many different moves that i can't figure out what i pushed to make max do it! Everything looks so real which is great since most fighting games are just one big blurr. I bought this game last night and have been playing ever since! Overall this game is an A+, 101%, awesome game!
