Stop making games that aren’t multiplayer already! It’s 2010, STOP! Make your game multiplayer or not at all.

this game has SOOOOOOOOO many problems. the frame rate is terrible (“tears” all the time). but that isnt the worst part. i was in the middle of a quest tryin to get three ice swords. the first was no problem, but the second. Well thats a different story, i did what i was suppose to and got into the room with the second sword and when i picked it up it was invisable. i could swing it and the character would go through the motions but nothing was there. i didnt think much of it a first (maybe it was a one time qlich), so i exited to the xbox 360 dashboard and started the game again. when it reloaded i was at the same spot, so i went over to check if the sword was there but…..it wasnt., so i went to check if maybe it was in the staute i was suppose to put it in. it wasnt. so now im stuck at a part i cant get past because the item i need isnt were its supose to be (or anywere for that matter). thats not the worst part though it did it to me FOUR (yes thats right 4) more times and the same thing happened. so now i have put about 20 hours into this game and still cant get past this part because the item keeps dissapering after i pick it up… IF THERE WAS ANY RATING BELOW ZERO THIS GAME WOULD GET IT….WORST GAME EVER…if this happens to anyone else plz contact me so i cant submit a recomondation to THQ to shut its doors and stop making horrible games.

I was very disappointed in this game. I bought it, played it twice, took it back and traded it. I expected it to be similar to god of war but not exactly like it. If I wanted to play GoW I would have brought out my PS2 instead of waisting 50 bucks on this. I at least expected the graphics to be better but they werent at all. Maybe later in the game you get a horse? but I didnt understand the whole concept of a horseman not having a horse. I didn’t sit through it long enough to finish cuz I was so disappointed. Traded for Prototype instead and it was the best move Ive ever made cuz its pure awesome. If you havent played GoW this game would be good since GoW isn’t on xbox but if you have dont waist your money.

Combat is not good, it feels slow and cumbersome. The X button basically does all the combos for you, makes it fun if you like to press one button. Frame rate was having problems during the first 35 minutes, played a total of 2 hours before calling it quits. I believe the developer is on a good road, but they didn’t live up to the hype on this one.

Ok lets pretend this beginning is at the end. But its really like an FBI warning at the start of a film.:D
Btw if you don’t like the review don’t read it, its called an opinion. And opinions are like #$#holes everyone has one, much like the people who have to bash you and call you a liar for not liking the game. It was closer to six, about 5hrs and 45minutes, for those people who have to be so precise. Excuse me. Go bash someone else about there review. Its a shame no one can have a negative opinion.
So many games seem to be based on the end of time, or the apocalypse hereafter, i think this market will be quickly dried up much like the FPS genre. You fight as a guy named War(pretty catchy huh) as you are sent back to earth to seek revenge on angels and demons from heaven and hell. While this sounds interesting at first, the game quickly disapates into a regular hack and slash fest that takes its toll on you after about an hour. The game itself is only around 5 hours long, so you really don’t get your moneys worth. The controls are hit and miss, the graphics are decent, and there are some interesting puzzles to solve as well, this however doesnt change the fact that this game was rushed out to compete with other games in the same vein. God Of War 3 has been hyped up, and pushed back for around 2 years now, so many developers seem to try to compete with its gameplay, and somewhat with its story line. So far we have Darksiders, Dantes Inferno, and God Of Wars 3 all being about the same, in terms of battle, bosses, and stories. So who will win the prize this year? Well i think its pretty obvious, but i did like the Dantes Inferno demo every bit as much as the God Of War3 demo, so who knows. Darksiders is at its best Mediocre, some will praise it, some will hate it, i for one enjoyed it for around an hour or so, but went ahead and finished the game since i did pay for it. It was a task to finish, and in the end i really felt nothing, just like i had completed yet another God Of War clone. But hey, thats what people seem to want.
