Die aktuelle
Games Aktuell hat einen Test drin, allerdings noch ohne Gesamtwertung (angeblich weil die Testversion noch nicht zu 100% der Verkaufsversion entsprach). Die Teilwertungen bewegen sich aber alle im Bereich um 90%.
1UP.com:
-> 9.0

Außerdem folgende Zusammenfassungen aus dem NeoGAF und IGN-Forum:
Gameplayer.com.au:
- Graphics: Absolutely eye-popping stuff

- Control: Context sensitivity is a little twitchy, but it plays well all-round
- Gameplay: The Darkness powers are loads of fun to come to grips with

PLAY (UK-Magazin):
- Gorgeous graphics, great story, gritty atmosphere.
- Story is "pretty good" - contains some of the "best twists ever in a videogame".
- Some of the lip syncing is out of sync slightly but it is not to noticable.
- Instead of load screens Jackie is shown posing or "telling a story about his past" - these take place on the subway train as you travel between levels.
- Lots of unlockables including an "entire back catologue of Top Cow comics". Adds great replayability.
- Lots of side quests - e.g - collecting change from the subway tracks. Helping a vagrant busk with the harmonica.
- Gameplay "should take you around 14 hrs depending on how much you want to see".
