You wanted to go to Hell with Dante...? Wait,the Hell has come to you.
As for the game process itself, the game is very well-balanced fighting, action, and not very complicated puzzles. Fighting system that progresses with time, as you have the possibility of saving souls and exchange them for new battle skills. Life and bonus system is not been invented as something new, as there already are many games withe well made systems,so Darksiders has borrowed it - chests with an energy orbs (this time souls), which, depending on color ,serve different purposes.
At the main visual defects I can mention jumping frame rate, which is most visible when the camera turns sharply in any direction. Otherwise the games graphics and visuals are joy for eyes. The World is a large, vivid and detailed the same as heroes and other creatures. Controls are well balanced,as you don't have to think about them during playing. The only weak point could be camera turning during fights,but it should not be a problem for regular gamers. Speaking of sounds and voices I can say only good words. Sounds perfectly fits into the game world,voice act is professional and not overacted.
As for the game concept itself, then you can feet a strong breezes from some other game in this genre, so you could say that just lacks originality, but in general I think that the game is great and you will have lot of interesting moments and emotions playing it.
