Released at the tail end of last generation, Darkwatch was an occult-western whereby you take on the role of vampire-hunter and newly-branded vampire Jericho Cross in his quest to rid the world of the ultimate evil. High Moon Studios’ Darkwatch was one such game that was shrouded in darkness and left to scavengers in bargain bins across the world. Not an admirable position for any game to be in. It’s not that they were bad, they were just competing with one of the most important FPS franchises of all time. Of course Halo cast such a dark shadow that it was hard for many of the games to get their foot in the door of Xbox owners and as such many went unnoticed if not ignored. Aside from a few decent attempts at doing it right on the Playstation 1 and Nintendo 64, it really wasn’t until last generation that things got going in earnest, kicking off with the original Halo in 2002. Darkwatchĭespite popular opinion, the Xbox and Playstation 2 were home to some absolutely cracking First Person Shooters. Join me while I countdown 30 great years of game memories.

I’m waving goodbye to my 20′s and to celebrate I’m counting down 30 games from the last 30 years.
