THQ has coughed up a brand new trailer for Darksiders, which will be one of the very first games to smash our faces in when 2010 rolls around. As always, this video is musclebound and manly and looks like it was based on Brad Nicholson's diary.
Interestingly enough, the first review of Darksiders arrived by way of Play magazine, and the game was awarded a 10/10. Of course, this is the first review, and those things always seem to score coincidentally high, but a 10/10 for Darksiders is still pretty surprising, even as far as exclusive reviews go. It must be doing something right.
We'll have our own review up relatively soon. Keep 'em peeled for that.

I remember way back when this was announced and Joe Madueria was doing the concept artwork for it. He did a rather well known run of X-Men for a few years.
I think this game looks freaking awesome. I hope it does well. The way the characters are drawn looks like they were all taken strait out of a comic, which was probably the point. Go Darksiders!
PLAY told me Brutal Legend was the most amazing open world game ever made. I need to see a reliable review...like maybe Jim Sterling.
See, not everyone hates you, Jim.
LOL Play magazine. It's the biggest piece of shit in the gaming press, sure they have decent art direction but that's it. They gave LAIR a 9/10 for christs sake, please acknowledge that Play magazines word means nothing. They probably gave RIDE a 10/10 too.
