While I have been just a lurker for many a year. Like to read, not post. But since you are asking for females' opinions, I, for one, love The Darkness! Got it as an import last summer and I play it constantly. Best thing since sliced bread, in my opinion. First time I heard it, I had to laugh out loud, now I just sing along with my best falsetto!
