==Reception== [[IGN]] gave it a 5.0 out of 10 stating, "Dark Void" is one of those games you'll play, beat, and forget ever existed." <ref>{{cite web|url=http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/106/1061967p1.html |title=IGN's Dark Void Review |publisher=Xbox360.ign.com |date= |accessdate=2010-03-09}}</ref> ''[[Game Informer]]'' gave "Dark Void" its highest public score with a 7 out of 10.<ref>{{cite web|last=Turi |first=Tim |url=http://gameinformer.com/games/dark_void/b/xbox360/archive/2010/01/20/review.aspx |title=Game Informer's Dark Void Review |publisher=Gameinformer.com |date=2010-01-20 |accessdate=2010-03-09}}</ref> [[GameTrailers]] gave "Dark Void" a 6.8 out of 10.<ref>{{cite web|author=Posted: Jan 19, 2010 |url=http://www.gametrailers.com/video/review-dark-void/60947 |title=Game Trailer's Dark Void Review |publisher=Gametrailers.com |date=2010-01-19 |accessdate=2010-03-09}}</ref> GameZone's Louis Bedigian gave both the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions a 6/10, stating "The generic Gears of War-style shooting is forgivable. But the countless technical problems all but destroy a game that had the potential to be something truly special. Dark Void can be summed up in just six words: so much potential, so much disappointment."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://xbox360.gamezone.com/gzreviews/r34011.htm |title=Dark Void Review - Xbox 360 |publisher=Xbox360.gamezone.com |date= |accessdate=2010-03-09}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://ps3.gamezone.com/gzreviews/r34011.htm |title=Dark Void Review - PlayStation 3 |publisher=Ps3.gamezone.com |date= |accessdate=2010-03-09}}</ref> [[Hardcore Gamer Magazine|Hardcore Gamer]] awarded the game a 3 out of 5, praising the innovative jet pack but stating that the game "winds up being less than the sum of its parts," and that Dark Void is "not something you need to have in your collection."<ref name="Hardcore Gamer Magazine Review">{{cite web|author=Peeples,Jeremy|url=http://www.hardcoregamer.com/index.php?option=com_magazine&id_rubrique=1&type=article&id_article=491 |title=Hardcore Gamer Magazine: Dark Void Review|publisher=Hardcore Gamer |date=2010-02-05 |accessdate=2010-02-05}}</ref> Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw of [[Zero Punctuation]] noted that ''Dark Void'' was the game that had disappointed him most in his review career - not because it was bad, but rather because it was ambitious, and in stretches, very engrossing and fun, but in the end felt both too short and too unfinished, as if the developers had run out of money or time or will.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/1433-Dark-Void|title=Zero Punctuation: Dark Void|date=4 February 2010|work=[[Zero Punctuation]]|accessdate=13 February 2010}}</ref>
