I just beat it yesterday (PS3 version) and I'd personally give Dark Sector a 7/10. It's a decent game that adds alot of elements from many successful games like RE4 and GeOW, but those copied elements feel alot more slapped and inferior. For example, there's a black market that imitates RE4's merchant where you buy and upgrade weapons, but the choices of weapons are narrow and upgrade system is very straight forward and shallow. Also, the graphics are top notch and actually runs smoother than UE3 games but the movements and actions feel very clumped up compared to GeOW and Drake's Fortune, you'll have to press X (ps3) or A (360) everytime you want to react with a wall or cover. Aside from that, the animation gets repetitive when you've gotten around half way through the game. The story is something that will be forgotten and the multiplayer is pretty fun but limited. The best parts of this game is the fact that you learn new cool moves (that makes this game easy) all the time. Near the end of the game the main character becomes a killing machine with many options to kill and stay alive, however, the melee combat is pretty much useless since it can take up to 8-10 hits to kill someone even if you smash them with a glaive in your hand..... pretty ironic since he's so much of a badass late in the game yet swinging his fist with a glaive in his hand into an enemy's head does absolutely nothing.
I'd say rent this game.
