The darkness is a first person shooter based in the 21st century. You play as Jackie Estacado, a mafia hitman who becomes possessed by the darkness on his 21st birthday. It all starts when you and your mafia buddies are in a cop chase, one of them gets shot and you boot him out of the door and climb into his seat and there the story begins.

I loved this game and thought it was a great 1st person shooter, the graphics are good and it provides several days of gameplay.
