Darksiders Is Worth A Hype



Here's a walkthrough you shouldn't miss. It's Darksiders, a game of which I long enough thought I'd be the next God of War/ Devil May Cry rip off. But you'll learn that this game has a different aim. In a few of the latest interviews the devs said this game is more aimed at feeling like a Zelda game. And indeed, the walkthrough shows quiet passages with exploring and puzzle elements. It somehow reminds me of the old Soul Reaver games. The art style is comic like and looks familiar to anyone who's played Warcraft. While it has a good amount of hacking and slaying demons and angels the story isn't uninteresting either:
You play as War, one of the four horseman of the apocalypse, who helped destroy the world. As it turned out the apocalypse was meant to happen just yet and War is drawn in a conspiracy between heaven and hell. Now War have to kill everything and anybody in his way to restore the balance.
The game is out this winter. Until then I'll watch it close!
