Great news! Hope the new main character is as good as War was...

TOO PAWNED4715d ago

AM I the only one to not like this game? I gave up after few hours. Combat is so dull and boring

KUV19774715d ago

You probably are. The game is great!

RankFTW4715d ago

Loved this game enough to get plat on it, another one is more than welcome. Loved the cliff-hanger type ending the original had.

ME19894715d ago

Combat was one of the best parts of the game, aside from the beautiful art direction/characters and stellar voice acting.

king dong4715d ago

great game. well pleased a sequel is coming.

This was a close contender for GoTY

I guess so man. Darksiders is like a badass version of OOT. I think it could've been a tiny bit more intensive but I rather liked the pacing of the fights its just the enemies that were a little lack luster to me but everything else was spot on in the game. Maybe you were jaded through hype? That seems to happen a lot for gamers. Hell maybe give it another whirl...but I'm not gonna hate on you for disliking it. Its no masterpiece its a surprisingly good game.

@Too Pawned

I gave up on it too, but that was because it came out when Bayonetta and Dante's Inferno released. I played for a while, and I liked it, but then I moved on the Bayonetta and never finished it. I'm going to go back and beat it.

The combat isn't dull, but it's not top 5 of the hack and slash genre either. It's a really good game to me part God of War part Zelda, but never amounts to either of those 2.

8.5/10 IMO

Awesome! I really enjoyed Darksiders. My only fear is that the main character in Darksiders 2 has a gun.. I mean wt* an Horseman of the apocaylpse with a gun... Im saying that because i think theres 1 of the four with one in their story if I remember well. Even War should not have one.

BushLitter4715d ago

War had a gun in the first game as well

And in the Bible there is no mention of any gun at all

FunAndGun4715d ago

I hope Samael comes back! He was such a cool character.

XIIIWARRIOR414715d ago

Wow! I thought I was the only one. He was freakin bad-ass! From his name, build & the way he talked plus his freakin voice was just pure epicness!

Kamikaze1354715d ago

This was confirmed like...a year ago >_>

Daver4715d ago

Yes but I think it more confirms by now that it is indeed coming in 2012

_Q_4715d ago

Awesome my only gripe is that Darksiders 2 isn't using War. This next game has a lot of hype running for it in my head. It was one of my GOTYs for sure. Played it all the way through with out noticing. I hope they don't scum up the game with unneeded MP crap tacked on. I want this to stay as untouched as possible. Don't fix what isnt broken.

BushLitter4715d ago

100% agreed

If they want to add MP then there must be a completely separate campaign featuring all four horsemen :)

I don't know whether I am going to enjoy playing as Death either. Can't relate much to a walking skeleton

But a death-wielding firehorse-riding War God - that i can relate to

Vote for either Darksiders or Darksiders II at the bottom of the article! 🎮😄

Gaming4Life19811652d ago

Darksiders 1 is the better game but I like part 2 as well.

Daver1652d ago

Darksiders was a lot better than darksiders 2. Even darksiders 3 was better than 2

AK911652d ago

Darksiders 1 is a complete game but it’s obvious with Darksiders 2 they ran out of budget after the Ice world and the game just becomes a poorly paced mess.
