Drawn into the (Dark) Void

I don’t know when it happened, but all of a sudden all I want to play is Capcom’s Dark Void, something about is speaks to me. Its strange, in a month of BIG RELEASES (Bayonetta, Darksiders, Mass Effect 2, No More Heroes Desperate Struggle, and Tatsunoko Vs Capcom to name a few), my gaze keeps getting drawn back to Dark Void.

So far the initial reviews are not that promising. According to METACRITIC, the game is receiving an average of 6.0 out of 10 across the board. Here are some links to a few of the bigger reviews on the net from the sites I mostly trust for opinions:

• Giant Bomb: 3/5
• Gametrailers Video Review: 6.8

Regardless of the complaints I’ve seen regarding this game, I still want it. I’m going to take the plunge and buy it before the week is out. I’ll post my initial impressions when I get the chance.
