Darksiders: Wrath Of War

war looks like one of the most cookie cutter characters ever. 😂

Apparently, Pestilence and Famine, the other two traditional Horsemen of the Apocalypse, have been replaced by Fury and Strife. Lame.

The game play looks very solid. Zelda-esque exploration with GOW and DMC fighting combos.

That's what I thought too.

But I can't wait to play it! Watched the trailers... awesome. With a capital 'A'. 😄

One of my boys got it already and he says its a masterpiece. While I take his comment with a grain of salt, im really looking forward to this game even more now.

the game's crazy fun. it didn't bore me at all. it's the first time in a while that i've played a game for longer than i did this one. the way war destroys ememies so mercilessly is crazy and has just this wow factor all the time. like the way he does it makes you say "god damn. he killed the sh*t outta that enemy". lol.

can't wait play it again.

edit:

i really meant to say:

"it's the first time in a while since i've played a game for more than an hour straight."

and my score on it so far's an 8/10. it can get repetitive at times with the moves but not enough to spoil the game.

I'll be buying this game this weekend.

I wish I could buy it tomorrow, but I need to wait for my pay check.

I'm sick and tired of games having gameplay similar to DMC. Seriously, just saying DMC makes the game feel gay.

Anyways, the idea for the horsemen of apocalypse to be betrayed by Satan does sound awesome but can it be as exciting as we expect it to be? In the past, I used to trust soon-to-be-released games with interesting plots and when that game came out, I was shattered. Which is why I mostly now rely on just renting and checking online reviews.

never trust payed critics reviews they can easly be bribed

I didn't know anything about this game until I saw this thread... read the review on IGN just now... sounds better than Bayonetta

Never played Bayonetta.

Played through the first 4 hours yesterday, the game has a lot going for it.

It's a lot like Zelda minus the irritating back tracking in dungeons to get keys. The combat is also pretty intense, I'm liking the unlockable combo moves especially with Chaos Eater.

I'm happy with the purchase so far, a lot of variety and I've only played 4 hrs.

And the way I killed the first boss was sick, I hit her with two 28 hit combos with Chaos Eater.

So pretty much we'll have to solve pain in the ass puzzles, explore a lot of dungeons, fight enemies that will make you feel bored, have a cast of characters we'll find really annoying and come to hate them, have a protagonist who will have everyone provoking him because they think he's queer, cheesy plot devices, and having gamers turn into uncontrollable fanboys who spew mostly lies in Games Versus threads?

your hatred is palpable 😐

Not everything has to be about shooting and killing things

Here's my issue with pain in the ass puzzles. They get me stuck for possibly two days and that's just irritating.

You must be joking...

Yeah exploring is good but not in dungeons. Unless of course it's in an Uncharted game of course. Dungeon exploring in Legend of Zelda was always a nuisance when you have to find the keys, go back to the location you were already at that's far away, and find even more pain in the ass puzzles that weren't even remotely entertaining.

sounds like for you almost everything needs to be shoot or killed in your games that you pick....

Was'nt that much of a nuisance depends on which dungeon some of them were piss easy.
