Darkest of Days provides a unique and overall well put together single player campaign. Any fan of action games or time travel mechanics should give this one a serious look.
-
If Darkest of Days were a film it would make the rounds at festivals, where “flawed but interesting” has its place. But there are no festivals in gaming, outside of the ten games that get selected for spotlight every year at PAX.
-
The concept is intriguing and the game worlds can be very immersive, but the execution in Darkest of Days falls short of its potential amid control, AI, and other gameplay issues.
-
Long load times and limited magazines feel more like a cheap way to pad the game's length than to capture an historic feel, especially when these weapons are far more accurate at a far greater range in the game than their real-world counterparts ever were.
-
Darkest of Days takes the concept of time travel in an interesting direction, and then proceeds to fumble at every turn. Poor AI and slowdown lead the list of this game's problems, and with so many better shooters out there, this isn't worth the time and frustration.
-
While the story had potential for creating a cool juncture between history and science fiction, there’s very little flexing of those muscles in the actual product.
-
Darkest of Days is the worst first-person shooter of this generation.

TimBSep 18, 2009This has to be the worst FPS I have ever played, hands down. No wonder the reviews are so bad.
