Voila! I was actually trying to be sarcastic in response to all the posts I've seen complaining that the screen is too dark. Mind you, I actually like the darkness as a part of the game's atmosphere. However, on some machines where it may actually be TOO dark to see, believe it or not, some people just don't seem to know that they can tweak their driver settings. After turning my brightness and gamma up, the game actually looked like it does oin those cool trailers. I still have to use the flashlight on occasion, but it's nowhere near as dark as say, those screenshots you take that show absolutely nothing.
