Re: Darksiders

The more I play this game, it reminds me more and more of this title than any of the God of War comparisons:

I never played that but I heard it was very good.

Re: Darksiders

Ok played for a while last night and it's not very good.
Just kidding....
Played for a couple hours and after the initial start it gets pretty fun. Haven't played enough yet for a full "Review" but so far I'm enjoying it.

I started and I am about 45 mins in. I am not really enjoying it that much. I keep thinking I could be having more fun with Bayonetta. I hope it gets better as I go, cause right now the combat just feels so "mindless"

Like I was telling Biohazard earlier, the main fault of the game is you really gotta get into it about 2 hours before it really picks up. For some reason they felt we basically needed a couple hours of tutorial, lol.

Once you start hitting the dungeons, and exploring, and getting upgrades though, the game gets awesome.

I hope you right Dale. Cause I LOVE the art direction and the idea of a Zelda type exploration game. But the combat so far of X.X.X.X.....Hit B to finish is just so damn mindless and gets repetitive quick. Maybe I am just to into Bayonetta's combat system of different buttons, having to use evade moves to miss attacks, and just the basis of "Skill" to play.

I am for sure going to give it time and see how it goes. Hell it can't be worse than some of the other crap I played. MGS4 for example lol.

Once you unlock/find/buy more weapons, they are assigned to different buttons. For example, I have a scythe and a boomerang right now. So I can be slashing people with a sword (square), hit them with a spinning scythe attack (triangle), while throwing my boomerang at someone attacking from a distance (R2).

It starts getting pretty crazy.

Plus, like I said, that's just half the game. Once you actually get into the story, the other half is purely exploring dungeons and solving puzzles.

Re: Darksiders

I've played about 2 hours but I'm going to wait for the patch to come out that fixes the screen tearing issue on the 360. It's not that bad but it is noticeable and somewhat distracting.

I am 1/2 blind but I haven't noticed it much at all....

Phobia, I would wait till you get to the first dungeon man. I was feeling the same way, then I played the first dungeon and the game completely opened up and was fun to play. If doesn't get better for you by then, I would just sell it.

Nope, I got both the same day and played Bayonetta first. Really enjoy it but since I put in Darksiders I have not played Bayonetta once
