DESCRIPTION

Darksiders is a gruesome, violent, fast-paced combat adventure inspired by the New Testament's Book of Revelation. Players take the role of War, the first of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. War must battle both demons and angels, as he fights alone to reverse a premature Day of Reckoning that he himself is accused of accidentally bringing to be. In the style of games such as Devil May Cry and God of War, Darksiders' combat is supernaturally infused, taking place across great expanses of land as well as high in the air, with fast-flowing combos, impossibly huge medieval weapons, and destructive blasts of magical energy from mystical firearms. After being tricked into breaking the eternal laws, and causing the end of the world to come far too early, the horseman War finds himself at odds with both the forces of heaven and hell. The game follows his story as he fights across the destroyed civilizations and wildernesses of Earth, hunted by vengeful angels and gleeful demons alike, as he searches for the one who fooled him into fulfilling his purpose too soon, and unsettling the order of existence. The game's graphic-novel inspired art style was directed by Marvel Comics illustrator Joe "Mad" Madureira. Characters are performed by veteran voice actors, including Liam O'Brien as War and Mark Hamil as The Watcher, who often appears in cut-scenes to reveal lore and move the story forward. ~ T.J.

“I can't really claim credit for the Dark Rider trophy. Mr. Masking Tape earned that one for me while I surfed the internet. It took an hour and a half to two hours of War riding in a freaking circle...”

“I'll get to the gameplay in a sec. First, we need a touch of mood setting. I woke up at 4:30pm today. That would be the equivalent of 4:30am to you daywalkers. After a failed attempt to lull myself...”

“Yeah. I thought I had a bad day 'til I saw this (be warned, it's slightly graphic). I'm cool now.
