Darksiders

Back when it was known as Darksiders: Wrath of War, and appeared to be a badass Shadow of the Colossus with a chaingun, I was really looking forward to it. Fast forward a few years, the thing actually comes out, and apparently it's a Diablo-inspired Zelda. Which sounds less exciting, since Zelda clones tend to be pretty shitty; but actually, as far as I saw in the demo, Darksiders is quite good.

It does a lot of things - button-mashy combat, dungeon puzzles, Zelda items - but it does all of them well. And it looks consistently gorgeous, too. I was a little worried that the game would be too "edgy" for me, but the theme and story (again, as far as I saw in the demo) take a back-seat to the compelling gameplay.

Definitely going to pick this up at some point.

Progress: Finished the demo
