For those of us keeping tabs on Jackie Estacado's dark path of revenge in the next-gen FPS The Darkness for the PS3 and the Xbox 360, here's a treat even the Darklings would eagerly chow down on: a two-part developer walkthrough video that explains a lot about the game. Producer Lars Johansson and Art Director Jens Mathies talk of mainly how the powers of Darkness figure into the gameplay and how you use them.

The first part shows a cemetery, and it's where Jackie gets his first taste of the Darkness. Through an uncontrollable cutscene, Jackie watches as the darklings sprouting out from his body make short work of his enemies by literally tearing them apart and eating their hearts (can you say overkill?).

The second part focuses more on the Darkness, its various abilities AND limitations. If one looks at the darklings perpetually hanging over your shoulder, you'll notice they have glowing spots on their heads. This could be considered the Darkness' health indicator - the more you use the Darkness to dispose of your foes, the more energy you expend, and the glow dims accordingly. Fret not, however - you can easily restore this energy by standing in the dark, or draining darkness from your defeated foes.

Certainly something to look forward to, this game. Check back here for any and all updates regarding Starbreeze and 2K Games' The Darkness, and in the meantime, enjoy the videos!
