   This gem is hands down one of the most underrated games in a while. The reviews are pretty good across the board but I am the only person I know that bought this game. To me this game is the ultimate gamer’s game. From its comic book look and feel to it Zelda inspired game play, I don’t think I know a gamer that could play this and not feel the sense of love that was put into this game. The game begins on a high note with the start of the apocalypse. War, one of the four horse men of the apocalypse drops from the sky to the world of human destruction and a war between angels and demons. Then a quick level that acts as the tutorial you lose all of your abilities ala metroid and are blamed for starting the apocalypse before it is time. You are given a chance to prove your innocence and bring the true evil doers to justice. If that doesn’t get your nerd blood pumping I don’t know what will. The game is great, graphics are good, story’s good, and great game play. The only thing holding this game back is its biggest claim to fame is the been there done that of the game. Aside from the story, I played this game before. I think that if you are looking for a great HD adult style Zelda/metroid/soul reaver, this is it. I also think that if you are looking for a great single player experience that is full of epic moments, you should probably pick this one up.… Expand

   A very attractive game with a pretty interesting plot, voice work is above the usual standard going hand in hand with the script. I was disappointed by what I felt was a cobbling of on trend games mechanics done in a less than polished fashion a prime examples of this is the portal style elements which I felt were poorly delivered and a horse riding element which didn't feel like an integral part of the game. Combat is enjoyable and can be varied once you learn your way around the controls and visually the game looks stunning. If Darksiders concentrated on the parts where it really did well in (story and combat especially) I would of rated it higher but the addition of elements that detracted me away from those areas really let this game down.… Expand

   there is absolutely nothing original about this game. Every single detail has been taken from some other game. It's got all the trademark items of Legend of Zelda and even has a portal gun. This game has no shame and should be considered an abomination.… Expand
