Tala: I want you to have... all of me. Take all of me!
[Jericho bites Tala]
Tala: [moans in ecstasy] Yes. Yes! YES!

Perfect Coming Together!

Darkwatch is a perfect union between the Action, Horror, and Western genres. Aside from taking the best elements from all 3 (vampires, massive combat, and a good old-fashioned Mexican standoff) the unique plot and characters make this worth the money. Jehrico Cross, the ex-outlaw turned monster hunter after he is made a vampire. Cassidy Sharp, his helper (if he's "good"), Tala, an ambitious and cruel Darkwatch officer. Lazarus Malkoth, the vampire ancient who sired Jehrico, and the character who gives the game its subtitle, "Curse of the West." Replayability is good, as there are two ways Jehrico can lean. He can attempt to redeem himself and save his soul, or embrace the gift Lazarus forced on him. 10/10.
