Before Dark Void, developer Airtight Games was working on a very different style of shooter. It had originally planned a vehicular-combat title before one big idea came along and changed everything...
"Once we'd come up with the idea of making a vertical shooter, all our work had to be thrown out and we started from scratch," says lead designer Jose Perez.
The concept of 'verticality' comes from Airtight's belief that most 3D games aren't actually 3D. You move away and towards the camera, but rarely on more than one axis. By giving Will - the central character - a rocket pack, the developer wants you to battle enemies above and below, as well as in front and behind.
April's 2021 Games with Gold lineup includes the Xbox One titles, Vikings: Wolves of Midgard and Truck Racing Championship. Xbox 360 titles are Dark Void and Hard Corps: Uprising.
Dark Void is a pretty decent game, I have it on disc for PS3 but hey... I'll grab it digitally to play on my Series S. Hard Corps Uprising is a freaking sweet (and hard) game. I've had that for a while and still cannot beat it.
@darthv72 Jesus Christ LOL, how on earth could you be downvoted for your opinion of the two games that are decent? This community sometimes i swear...
It must be those that have beaten Hard Corps Uprising. That is their way of telling me I need to get good.
This is why sites like Reddit are trash. They auto-punish users who gets downvoted - thus if you have an opinion other than the poitical correct majoirty, you're getting all sorts of blocks.
I'm all in for Dark Void and Hard Corps, but look... people have opinions. Maybe a majority of peeps don't agree with his opinion so they hit the disagree button, I don't know it makes sense to me.
@Supernintentendo
Best thing to do is not worry about those little arrows below your comment, and just say want you feel. You'll be much better off when you don't care about yours or soomebody else's downvotes.
On topic, I also have Dark Void for PS3, and it was pretty decent. Good enough for at least a playthrough.
Since when do people care about votes on here? Everyone on here knows darthv72 is an xbox guy, he'd get more disagrees for saying white is white and black is black.
Some people act like someone spat in their faces or they're credit score would be impacted. Some people don't agree.... .life huh
IGN said, "Dark Void is one of those games you'll play, beat, and forget ever existed."
Exactly my experience.
Dark Void possibly killed my phat launch PS3, with countless crashes and slowdown. So I have mixed feelings about that one lol. Mediocre game at best, and runs terrible on PS3. Hopefully the 360 version is better...
Loved Hard Corps! But yeah get better 😆. By the time you unlock all the abilities you it just gets easier. Makes me wish they would continue with Hard Corps.
Legit cringe when MS promotes Achievements and GamerScore. Sad state of affairs for them to be that desperate.
Making out those games are still worth $129.99 is bad enough 😑🤣 yeah maybe 10 years ago. Worth about 12.99 these days 🤷🏻♂️🤣 ✌🏻
Lol the Austria leak was fake then. This looks better than last months which was rubbish
*Truck Racing Championship*
"monitor tire wear..."
Yeah, that's what I want out of a video game. /s
What have they got in store for next month, Vehicle Inspection Sticker: The Game?
It's a racing game.
It's no different than monitoring your health bar in an FPS or the time you spend watching a cutscene rather than playing.

Here are the Capcom games joining the PS Now Subscription service.
Yeah, this one totally came under my radar. This has great potential to be an amazing multiplayer. I just hope the shooting feels less like Army of Two and more like COD4. For a game like this to succeed it needs weapons that feel deadly, not like pea shooters.
