Elric Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Pretty good game actually, 'dungeon' puzzles and exploration remind me a lot of Zelda. Combat seems to be a mixture between Devil May Cry and God of War, even got a Panzer-Dragoon esque section (lasts about 4 minutes) that reminded me of playing on my mate's Saturn. Bout halfway through now, I'd recommend it, only slight annoyance is some frequently occurring v-sync issues. Had no idea one particular character was Mark Hamill's voice 'til I read the Eurogamer review (got an 8/10 there). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elric Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Ok, now Portal can be added to the list of games Darksiders has cribbed ideas from This is no bad thing though, all the 'borrowed' gameplay elements work really well. Nearly finished at about 17 hours in, still good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 looks great like, on my rental list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattypnufc Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Looks canny like. Never even heard of it until I saw it on Xbox insiders earlier today. Deffo worth a rent along with bayonetta methinks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Not really that impressed with it. Was hoping to complete it and trade it in, doubt it will get completed, finding it a bit too hard and hectic. Really isn't a quality game imo, just hack n slash, finishing moves copied from GOW, stupid storyline, lengthy levels, crappy save points, same repetitive shit over and over again. How many swords do i have to collect to put in statues? Dear me, can we not think of something else, i've been doing this for the last 3 hours. Ugh. 5.5/10 - really not my type of game.

Conjo Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hes already done one. Not nearly as good as his Darksiders review, but still a good laugh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clay Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 That was quite positive from him actually, he completely missed the point of the humour though and the QTE's aren't bad at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I'm gonna stop hating on it and just chalk it up to it being me. I missed the humor as well, I just saw a ridiculous game. I blame ME2, tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Give it another go in a few months time when you've got your tounge removed from Shepherd's arsehole, might enjoy it then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mugatu Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Just picked this up recently (fiver second hand from Game) and really enjoying it so far. Yes it rips from Zelda, God of War etc but they put it all together into a really good game. About 6 hours in so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
