Fanswag: Fanboys Fight for The Darkness

by Richard Mitchell on Jun 22nd 2007 6:00PM

The Darkness, as you may have heard, is fast drawing in upon us. In celebration of this glorious gloom, 2K Games decided to give us 5 copies of the game. The only problem is, they didn't bother to tell us which version. As such, we have decided to collaborate with the heathens over at PS3 Fanboy. We came up with a cordial little contest, and we need your help to settle it. How will you do that? With a good old-fashioned flamewar, of course! All you have to do is:

Finish this sentence: "The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because ... "
Submit your idea to our comments section.

Two winners will be chosen from Xbox 360 Fanboy. Here's the kicker: if Xbox 360 Fanboy receives more entries than PS3 Fanboy, we'll also give away a third copy to another lucky winner. As an added bonus, all winners will receive a prize package from 2K Games including both the game and a special The Darkness comic. We'll accept entries until June 26, 2007, so get cracking. Please note that this giveaway is limited to U.S. residents only, ages 18 and older (it's an M rated game after all). One entry per person.

tentacles don't come out of my bright white box, to rip out my heart and cut my head off with a saw. (Now... if I had one of those black elites...)

cohesive online experience
developed on the 360 platform

... because 360 owners don't have the time to sit through a full episode of Popeye anyways.

I forgot to add, "DAMN YOU OLIIIIIVE!!!11!eleven!!1!"

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because of rumble, grafix, xbox live voice chat, Xbox 360 Fanboy, Microsoft, Achievements, and the Xbox 360's 1337ness.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because its got achievements and PS3 doesn't! :P

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because I own a 360.

the xbox 360 version of the darkness is better than the PS3 version because the box is green
and i think we can all agree that a green box is wayyyyy better then a lame PS3 clear box OWNED

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because the actual darkness in the game is actually black, and not a brown sepia tone.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because its on the 360!

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because of achievements!

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because the game can reach a larger install base, the controls for the game are better, the white 360 over great contrast with The Darkness, and the game is so scary, you'll be glad you have that bright green ring of light to comfort you.

*Achievements
*You'll have rumble
*It doesn't need a gimmick called Suxaxis
*Leader boards
*You get to play online on the better network, Xbox Live
*Its on the cheaper system, the 360
*Its on the better system,the 360.
*I get to say why its better on the site where I get all my 360 news,speculation, and rumors,XboxFanboy.com
Do I need to say more?

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because the darklings protect you from the dreading red ring.

The 360 version of the darkness is better than the ps3 version because?............................................................................................... Its on the 360 whats better than that.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because only this box could X out as many mafioso's as the powers of the darkness.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because STONE COLD SAID SO!

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because ... Chuck norris says so

fuck yes, the darkness looks like so much fun

the 360 version of the darkness is better than the ps3 version because i fuckin said so

I already own a 360 and I know the games I have played are the best. I do not own a ps3 and for me that would be a $665.00 guess!

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because ... it's cheaper, although the combination grilling action of the PSthree is still somewhat sweet. ;)

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because you can use the 360 ring as a night light after you play.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because HOME sucks

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version bacause I can win the 360 version.

"The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because ... "

It has heart-seeking Darklings; a yet to be revealed feature! And you can strip someone of their spinal chord! All the PS3 ever got was a lousy "New Goblin" Skin in a sub-par Spider-man game.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because the 3 red LIGHTS.

...because The Darkness is a unique experience for 360 owners. "The darkness" caused by the jump of third-party exclusives and lack of a proper online service has been with Playstation owners since day one!!!

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because ...

unlike Sony's console, the 360 simulates it's consumption of the souls of the damned.

WE HAVE OVER DOUBLE THE COMMENTS THAN PS3 FANBOY!

The 360 version of the Darkness is better because it let's you experience the Darkness for $200 less!

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because of one simple fact, our copy won't rot.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because xbox 360 has a great comunity

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 because of several reasons:
-I can listen to whatever music I want to unleash the darkness(eating hearts while listening to Slayer or Dimmu Borgir, golden).
-Rumble, beats six axis motion control any day, any time.
-Mike Patton, I know he's in both versions, but I'm willing to bet that Mr. Patton prefers the 360.
-So many games released on both consoles end up looking better and/or have better load times on the 360(CoD3, THP8, Oblivion)
-Acheivements, gotta love em
-I own a 360, I do not own(and never plan to unless a massive price drop) a PS3.

Those are my reasons, give me the game.

because the 360 is just better. Period.

The 360 version of The Darkness is better than the PS3 version because I don't feel ripped off when I pop the disc in (or any disc for that matter)
