The PlayStation 4 may have our undivided attention right now, but we shouldn’t forget or entirely write off the Ouya.  Likely not destined to match the instant appeal that Sony has gathered for their new console, the Ouya is nonetheless gathering steam based on these latest announcements.

[Review] Dark Void

Overall Feeling: 

Dark Void ended up being what we all thought it wouldn’t be: a forgettable action game. Even though the premise is interesting and it comes from a solid heritage the game boils down to being nothing more than standard action that never once feels compelling or that entertaining. Compared to the games that have come out in the past few months and what’s ahead I have a feeling some people may completely forget about Dark Void since the game doesn’t really do anything to make it stick out.

The Pros: 

The voice acting from veterans such as Nolan North, Paul Eiding is nice. To my surprise the game has one of the best soundtracks I’ve ever heard. The last boss battle is cool. Zipping around on a jetpack does have its moments.

The Cons: 

Cliché story that as a whole feels a bit spotty at times, especially the ending that tries too hard to set up a sequel. Most of the missions are rather boring as they follow a standard pattern that is almost never broken up. Art direction is bland and the so-so visuals don’t help. Weapon variety is a bit small and as a whole the weapons look and feel a bit weak. You can beat the game in around 6-9 hours and it offers no replay value outside of Trophy/Achievement whoring.

6

When a new IP launches this generation there may not be a lot of hype for it but there’s always a certain amount of buzz and hope. In this day and age having an original game come out that not only looks interesting but is something that can be considered unique is almost an endangered species of sorts.

It looks like Capcom may not have entirely lost faith in their new IP Dark Void as a demo will be made available this week.  The demo will be available on Xbox Live on January 6 and will hit the PlayStation Network on January 7.

Exact details on the demo weren’t specified aside from that it will offer players an opportunity to test out the games jetpack along with the unique vertical cover mechanics.
