You play Hayden Tenno, an operative for an unnamed American intelligence agency. He is sent to the fictional Soviet nation of Lasria to gather information on a mysterious [[The Virus|epidemic]]. Of course Hayden has a [[Dark and Troubled Past]], and is [[True Art Is Angsty|angsting]] about his current assignment, afraid of being infected or reliving his past misdeeds. Obviously, [[The Virus]] is on hand to give him superpowers (as viruses that infect the protagonist are prone to doing).
 
False pathos aside, ''Dark Sector'' is actually a decent game. While it doesn't do anything perfectly it does do everything quite well. Gameplay revolves around Hayden using normal weapons and his infected powers to confront enemies: other infected and the Lasrian army trying to contain the infection. Hayden's most important (and gameplay impressive) power is the use of the Glaive, a sort of three pronged ninja star he can use to do pretty much anything Xena can do with her Chakram, and [[And That's Terrible|it's awesome]]. Gameplay also includes taking over Lasrian military hardware and turning it against them and some minor physical puzzles that can be solved using Hayden's powers. All in all an enjoyable if somewhat light and linear action game.
