I’m having some heavy second thoughts about letting this game go. I suppose I can always pick it up again (for cheap) if I feel the urge to run through it again though. Best to just grab the 1000 points while the getting is good.

My take on Dark Sector is “An excellent ‘dark’ sci-fi action game”.

Take game play mechanics from Gears of War, throw them into Resident Evil environments and slap a little dash of Bioshock storytelling on top and you’ve got the idea of what Dark Sector is all about. The game would’ve benefited from a little polish around the ends, but as an action game it more than delivers. Dual wielding a firearm and the glaive gives Dark Sector a fresh feel as opposed to countless other action games.

Hopefully there will be an eventual sequel, as I’d love to someday step back into the role as super bad-ass secret agent type guy. For $40 and under the game is worth every penny.
