Synopsis

Mafia hitman Jackie Estacado is surprisingly unfamiliar with a shotgun. He dies after a long incomprehensible conversation, seeing darkness at the end of a very long tunnel.

Stinger

We assure you, the conversation is honestly that difficult to hear. Try it yourself!

Trivia

• Yahtzee covered the demo to The Darkness in the first video that would eventually become Zero Punctuation. He briefly discusses the ridiculous opening cinematic. Yahtzee would later appear in Star Ocean: The Last Hope.
• This was the first time I died.
  • Origin of the "And that was the nth time I died" joke
