If the previous reviews of Dark Messiah: Elements didn't convince you regarding the game's problems, Brett Todd from GameSpot makes things perfectly clear with a score of 3.5 out of 10. Here is GameSpot's take on the multiplayer, and the bottomline:

"Multiplayer modes are being billed as the biggest additions to the 360 version of Elements, but they're just as disappointing as the rest of the game. Virtually nobody is playing the game online, as can be witnessed by the pitiful leaderboard scores. Of the multiplayer modes of play, only crusade has any promise, considering that the other deathmatch and blitz options are just as dull and dated as you might imagine. (...) It’s unfortunate that despite the poor reception that the PC version received, the Xbox 360 version of the game didn’t turn out any better, and is actually worse in several ways."

Coincidently, this is the same guy who gave Tribes of the East a 5.5 a few months ago. But with the nearly unanimous reviews of Elements, we can't really disagree with him this time.
