Review: The Darkness II // Video Game

Greetings, Darklings! I've been meaning to review "The Darkness II" for quite a while now since it's one of my all-time favourite gory psychological horror games. If that wasn't a captivating enough genre, it also contains light elements of roleplay. What a winner! I haven't had a lot of free time lately due to college deadlines being brought into the equation but now that I'm off college for two weeks, I'll be posting as frequently as I can since I'm an insomniac so be on the lookout for that and feel free to leave suggestions in the comments below as to what you would like to see me review/discuss. I tend to ramble a lot during every introductory paragraph... So, without further ado, let's begin.

Greetings, Darklings! I've decided to kick-start my first film analysis with one of my favourite classic crime films of all-time, Goodfellas. There's nothing I love more than an intriguing crime show or movie, for that matter. However, when Martin Scorsese is brought into the equation - nine times out of ten - I'm highly impressed with the way he, as a director, caters for a more complex genre. I’d regard this masterpiece as being one of Scorsese’s finest pieces of work, as controversial as it might be. However, my reasoning as to why I think this will become clear further on in the analysis. 

Introduction

      

Greetings, Darklings! Let me tell you a little about myself. My name is Marianne and I'm an eighteen year old, second year Media and Communications student studying in Glasgow. This means I study Journalism, Video Production, Public Relations, Music Industry Promotions, Web Design, Law and various other subjects that fall within the Creative Industries sector. I'm currently studying in Glasgow, Scotland but I'm from the three towns - known as the 'shire - which is nowhere near as exquisite as the Hobbit's wee place of residence... in the world of the mighty boosh.
