A Slave To The Glave

This game is absolutely engrossing and amazing. This uses what Gears of War did for gaming and takes it even further. From level design, to controls, to AI, to difficulty level, to graphics, to story... it simply reaches a level of "near perfection" All weapons are well rounded, upgradeable and fun to use, however the glave is the coolest weapon in your arsenal and you will find yourself using it more and more often as you progress and upgrade your abilities. You will feel like an absolute kick a** with glave in hand.
I must say that most of my enjoyment of games is during the first half of playing... then I just play to finish... however this game is somewhat different. As the game progresses, so will your enjoyment. The storyline will move you to play on, as will the intensity. In my opinion, the only drawback to this game is that it ended.
My kind of game but 4 stars...

I really liked it. Lots of shooting, the glaive is really cool to use, and the storyline is pretty good. Graphics are great.
Here is what kept if from being 5 star:
- Only one difficulty level
- The story is hard to get into because you never really figure out what things are about
- Not nearly enough ammo
- Strange save points
I would definitely recommend, especially now that the price has dropped.
Poor production quality with lack-luster dialogue and characters

need to start off by saying. RENT BEFORE YOU BUY. I was so excited for this game to come out and received a $10 off coupon from Amazon for being such a game crack-head. What could possibly go wrong... And the answer to that is oh so much.
The game starts off good with some nice water effects. Then enters Hayden which by my standards looks like a complete tool. How in the world did creative OK this character model? As we all know Hayden then becomes infected which might make the game awesome, but sadly it doesn't. The glaive is incredibly weak and has such a short range of attack. Hayden would have been better off with a mutated arm that shot orange Nerf balls.
A few more things set this game back. Crappy models and textures being a big deal. Extremely dark areas prevent you from going any further until you blindly stumble onto a pitch black web wall. And my biggest gripe. The WORST AI I have ever witnessed. Don't get me wrong, Resident Evil's waves of zombies are great but Dark Sector's zombies just become stupidly annoying.
Again rent before you buy, or just plain avoid.
Not Bad to play

I am surprised this game gets the decent reviews it does. The good first: Great graphics. The game looks stunning for what it is. It controls fairly good as well. However that is where it ends. The gameplay is utterly frustrating it takes forever to beat waves of enemies and even after you get the aftertouch for the glaive it is still an inefficient weapon. The story is essentially incoherent. There are random zombies. No explanation is given as to why zombies suddenly appear. it's as though the developers said "let's throw some zombies into the game just to spice it up, and let's make them really annoying" I gave Dark Sector a good 3 hours and just said screw it. Skip this if you don't like frustrating games.
OFF THE CHAIN GRAPHICS
