  Am I the only one who doesn't see ANY Zelda in Darksiders?

  Do you see it? I sure don't. Every time Darksiders is brought up, it's always compared to Zelda. From what I see, it's more of "God of War".

  There may be dungeons in the game where you have to solve puzzles to prgress and it may be the same genre, but that doesn't make it a Zelda-esque game.

  Does anyone else NOT see the Zelda in this game?

  My holiday wish list

  So here are some games I hope I get this holiday:

  1. Borderlands

  

  I said numerous times that I hopefully plan to pick this up this holiday, I even chose to plan it over Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo (which came out around the same time as Borderlands). I mean this looks really fun. Four cIasses fighting bandits, aliens, and all sorts of enemies. I especially LOVE the art styIe I see in the screens.

  2. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Reflex

  

  This might be my first Call of Duty game, as I have never played a Call of Duty game before. If so, get ready for another series newbie blog post. Here's what I mean:

  If I ever play game in a long running game series for the first time. I did this twice with the Ninja Gaiden series (playing Ninja Gaiden '89 on Wii Virtual Console) and with the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider series (playing Tomb Raider: Legend on the Gamecube).

  Anyway, back to Modern Warfare. In short, never played Call of Duty, might be the first one, and I like how this is a game NOT from WWII.

  3. New Super Mario Bros. Wii

  

  It's a Mario sidescroller, on a console. And we haven't had a Mario sidescroller on consoles since like, what, the SNES days?

  If none of those work, here's hoping I get this:

  

  I'm also planning a Nintendo Points Card for either a duo games on Wii Virtual Console. My Primary one is:

  Sin and Punishment (I need to get ready for Sin and Punishment 2)

  

  with either Indiana Jones on the SNES or the YS Books games on the TG-16. I'll decide Christmas day.

  I'm just behind on platformers this gen, aren't I?

  Ever since I joined the 3D Platformers Union (which I just joined last night), I have been looking back and knowing that I did not play enough 3D platformers this gen.

  3D Platformers I played this gen:

  

  *Somehow, I forgot that Secret Rings was a platformer in the past.

  But seriously, am I THAT behind on platformers? I haven't even played anything from Mario, and according to my user name I should be.
