Some scenes show you what to do next, so take care.

Don't think it lets you skip one you havn't seen before.

There is a demo of The Darkness up apparently (1.27Gb), which is good as I fancied a go at this. I'm not sure how much is in the demo yet though.

Some of the menu content on Live is so shoddily done. The Darkness demo has "<insert display string text>" under the banner.

Seems ridiculous getting everyone to jump through loops of red tape and then letting this shit through the net. It's only a small thing, but important.

This planet's going to the dogs etc.

Clearly the display string text should be "BLOOD AND GORE,DRUG REFERENCE,INTENSE VIOLENCE,STRONG LANGUAGE,SUGGESTIVE THEMES". You know, something enticing.

Sounds like someone forgot to replace all the placeholders in the XML file...
