Diddling with a Darksiders II Death Mask
An ominous package recently arrived, containing occult and forbidden artifacts from realms beyond our darkest imagination. Either that, or THQ popped a pretend mask in the mail and I filmed myself doing something dumb with it. Either way, this is a video of some stuff that happened pertaining to Darksiders II. What fun! Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)That's a fancy magic ashtray you wear on your face and it shows you the secret dreams of your testicle heart! Never stop making me chuckle Jim. I'm going to be honest, Jim; You look damn fine in those glasses. Seriously, they look good on you. I wish I looked that good in glassed, but I don't, so I wear little plastic eye pasties. I'd kill for that mask. Jim meet me in a dark alley, I promise no harm will be done.... to the mask. :D Really excited for this game. I picked up the original after your glowing review and couldn't agree more. Too bad THQ is going bankrupt and cancelling everything right?
Still not sure how that rumor was believed, but regardless can't wait for Darksiders 2. I want one! I collect masks and this would be perfect for my collection haha. Anyone think this will be included in a special edition? You need to graft this to your face, then go to an elementary school and run around clotheslining kids who are on recess. Optional objective: Bring a boombox blaring this song while you do so: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_mm3eI2qHQ I know this is just the normal press swag to butter up reviewers, but I think I'd actually pay money (not much, like $25-$30) for that, specially if it comes with a stand or something to display it on. 6:30 PM on 06.19.2013 Read Ashley Davis' Valkyrie on ShiftyLook today!Former Destructoid editor and doodler of all things cute, Ashley Davis, has done many wonderful things in her years as a freelance artist.
