Penned by legendary comic book artist Joe Madureira (X-Men, Battle Chasers, The Ultimates), Darksiders: Wrath of War is set in a Post-Apocalyptic demon-ravaged world where evil forces have prematurely brought about the end of the time. Originally sent to oversee the destruction of Earth, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been betrayed by their master, stripped of their powers and cast down to Earth. Players take on the role of WAR -- the first of the Four Horsemen -- as he embarks on a brutal quest of vengeance and revenge against the forces that betrayed him with the help of his phantom steed RUIN. Darksiders: Wrath of War features open-world exploration, a deep combat system and a huge arsenal of modern and mythical weapons.

Good game but not mucn new

This game is fun to play but it brings nothing new to the adventure / platforming genre. It's reminicient of God of War, but there are a lot less combos to choose from. This is not a bad thing because there is less to remember but it's possible to get thru the game with a few solid combos.The problems are with the camera, which at times is quite bad, not allowing to see much. The controls are good for combat but there are times when you need to use multiple buttons which makes it difficult; also the dodge feature is not very helpful. Sometimes you end up dodging right back to the enemy.Overall not a bad game, but not great. With comparisons to God of War and Bayonetta, Darksiders just does not quite measure up. A good rental, or if you like hack n slash games it just may be your thing.

The score is based on the quality of the story(if it's a story based game); or the quality of the simulation for sports and music titles. For example, GTA 4, was the story compelling? was it a main feature of the game? Another example would be Tiger Woods, how was the golfing experience? Was it satisfying? Graphic The overall experience of playing the game. This would include how fun was it to play, was it easy to work with? Was the game developed well in all aspects? The overall experience of playing the game. This would include how fun was it to play, was it easy to work with? Was the game developed well in all aspects? Control How well do the controls work? Are the buttons mapped in a way that makes the gamess easy and comfortable to play? Menu map This includes the music, the voice action, and the cut scenes (if there are any). Sound Does this work in a logical way? Does it take you out of the game play experience because you have to leave the main game screen? How are the loading times? If it's a sports game or music game how easy are the menus to navigate? Is it intuitive to get around menus?
Overall Is the game worth another play thru? Does the game give you a reason to play again or is one time enough? Replay Is the multi-player strong? Are there multiple options? Is there co-op? If the game has only single player then rate the overall experience. Overall was it a great game(4-5) good(3) mediocre(2) or poor(0-1). The online scoring is based on multiplayer, co-op, and any downloadable content. If a game does not have any multiplayer or co-op, but it does have downloadable content, you can count that as part of the online score. GGR feels that if a game does not provide any online capability then it can not receive a perfect score.
