nvd2ceb4 Little Too Complicated For Me. One word came to mind when I downloaded the trial version of Darkside...Complicated!!! First of all, I have to say this isn't like the Ricochet series. I'm not a patient person so having to keep control of my ship while hitting 'A' 'S' 'W' and 'D', and clicking the left mouse and the right mouse while trying to blow up asteroids is a little too much for me. I'm in my 30's and although I like games that have that little zip, this game just have too much zing for me. I only played about fifteen seconds only to realize that this won't get me enthused enough to play out the demo. If I was a bit younger and had the time a patience and coordination I would play out this game. Sorry Reflexive but I'm going to have to give my thumbs down on this one. Teenagers will like it though. Balthier What a blast! I must admit that I never played Arklight, but I did play Scavenger (and loved it), both space themed games from the same creators of Darkside. If you're into space shooters, or even arcade/action games, you definitely need to try this one. You control a ship, using the mouse or even the keyboard if you want to. I must say that using the keyboard is entirely optional. You can play the whole game using only the mouse, although I found myself better suited using the keyboard along with the mouse. The game play itself is really simple and intuitive, you control the ship and shoot things, getting power-ups and earning score along the way. There's 3 game modes to play: Mission, Arcade and Survival. Mission mode consists of different objectives on each level, as the name implies; Arcade mode is the usual, but still addicting "shoot everything on you way to finish the level"; and at last there's the Survival mode, in which you must survive as long as you can with only 1 life. The graphics in the game are outstanding. It's impressive to see this level of detail, with LOTS of explosions, running this smoothly. I'm not very fond of shooters myself, but somehow this one got me addicted. Who knew that exploding rocks on space could be so fun! With 3 different game modes, and 3 difficulty levels, I can see myself playing this game for a long time. You certainly need to check this one out. Two thumbs up! |
