Darksiders: Pre-E3 behind-the-scenes video and new screens

I had not heard anything about this game before but it looks amazing and amzingly fun to play.

Damn that video was amazing. I rarely get this excited about a game pre-release (I avoid hype like the plague) but this game has me wetting my pants in anticipation. I literally cannot play it soon enough.

Man how has this game not been on my radar. I especially loved the scene when you jump on the flaming horse. It looks like its got some awesome cinematics. I cant wait.

I'm intrigued. If they can pull off the open world/concentrated action like they say they can, I'm sold. Call me crazy, but I feel like that would make the game's structure more like Zelda or (and this is a bit of a stretch) Shadow of the Colossus than that linear bullshit I'm so sick of. Assuming this isn't just baseless hype, or their definition of "open" differs from that of Webster's, this might just be the first game to bring me back to third person action games since God of War. I also like the more creative art style on display, but character design wise, I wish they would've gone with something a little less "big badass guy is big and badass". It is a rather creative take on big-badass guy, but the overcompensation in male characters displayed in a majority of videogames is starting to irk me. Why do all male characters either end up dickless and feminine or GRAH ME WANT CRUSH? Whatever, at least we have Valve.

looks like shadow of the colossus meets gears of war.

DO WANT

Its going to suck.


There I said it. I've spoken your deepest fear.

Now continue with your mindless rants about how great it might be; Rants that will, with time, turn into those of how great it could have been.

My concern is that they may have spread themselves too thin. This "open yet cinematic world" concept sounds like they may be trying to do too much at once rather than focusing on fewer elements and making them exceptional.

That being said, I'm eager to hear how the game turns out.

Joe Mad being involved is what's selling me on this game. this is what took him away from comics. i want to see what he's been up to the last 5-10 years. (oh, and it does look pretty good inandofitself)

I have to agree, this game does look high on the sweetness potential. And I also loved the horse mount, pretty cool!

Looks like a God of War knockoff, but at least a good knockoff. This may be able to hold me over until God of War 3 comes out.
