9 and a half out of 10!

This game is lookin' tops. What say you? :)

PS: Apologies if posted. I haven't been on quite as much.

Looks like it'll deliver. Dammit im going crazy here, i simply cant decidebetween this or Bayonetta next month.

Playr's pretty reliable, although the reviews aren't in-depth, they give a good outline (which is what i like). Il watch it now.

Their reviews seem kind of... odd... At least I know what the game is about now, so its all good. The game looks alright, not really into these type of games.

I think it loos great!

That is a fantastic score for a new IP. Just ask Uncharted ;).

Yeah their not a great show, its a cheap british gaming show but its really the only consistent broadcasting one so i watch them. They was never detailed about it because they used way too much filler like that top 5 segment, even so it should be good.shadowkiller11

Yup, better than Rogue Warrior. ;)

*runs away*

Does anyone know how these guys have rated games before?

That is still a great score for a new IP.

If Too Human or Lair would have scored an 8 we would have seen sequals already.

Yeah. whats wrong with an average score?

A 9 and a half cause there was no MP. Really? Thats just stupid. Not every game needs MP dammit.

I sold 2 copies of Godfather 2 ($9.99 each on Gamefly) to 2 different Gamestop locations and almost have Darksiders piad off now thanks to this...

This game is going to be ace and will be the surprise of early 2010. Cannot wait to get it next week.

I would get it but something about the main character just doesn't appeal to me.

Awesome! Now the question is how am I gonna fit it into my packed gaming schedule over the next few months :P

Do you know EDGE magazine? Do you know how harsh they usually are in their scores? Well guess what. They gave Bayonetta a 10. SO GET IT!

Not only is 2010 full of big name hits, plenty of sleeper hits coming around to with Bayonetta and Darksiders.

I thought you liked RW?

Quality can always be compared. ;)

Good to see the action adventure/hacknslash genre is coming back strong. Dante's Inferno, Bayonetta, Darksiders and of then of course God of war 3

Darksiders, bless thee.

[QUOTE="shadowkiller11"]You can't really compare the two as their two completely different catorgories, one is a crapfest the other adventure action game.aaronmullan

I'd rate it higher if I could.

And he called RW a "crapfest", so obviously we have the same opinion. :)

I thought you liked it, but I was wrong. And I agree with your assessment. Very poor game overall. Tis sad. I wish Rebellion would would get back in the groove. I fear AVP could be quite the disappointment.

I've been on the fence for awhile on this game, but this review may put me on the "buy" side. I very well might pick this game up on Jan. 5th. Would be a nice complement to Bayonetta I think.

God, I really can't wait for this game. January 5th can't come fast enough. A Zelda game set during the apocalypse, with awesome combat? Yes, please!

Thanks for posting, Bioshock!

It got an 8.5 at gameinformer. 8.5 at least here is now confirmed. Awesome scores so far.

looks a little too colorful, but with so many other dark gritty games in the same vein I can see why they did it. Looks awesome

play magazine gave it a 10. Might do 8.5 average

i liked this game when it was announced back in 07 at e3 and ive been following ever since then. it was called darksiders wrath of war.

Play Magazine has given Darksiders a 10 out of 10.

UK games show called PLAYR gave Darksiders 9.5 out of 10. The point 5 loss is due to the absence of multiplayer.

Game Informer has given Darksiders an 8.5 out of 10.

Game Vortex gave Darksiders a 95 percent.

GamePro gave Darksiders on the PS3 a 92% and the 360 a 91%.

Gamers Temple gave Darksiders a 98%.

all reviews so far taken from the darksiders wiki-page.

Playr is a good show to watch but are really bad with review scores and hand out high scores too often.Fable 2 got a 10 and the Saboteur a 9

Panosola

no, it will be 8.5.

No multiplayer = no longevity = definite rental for me

Incredible Hulk + God of War + Devil May Cry = Darksiders
