"By now you’ll know that THQ was yesterday dissolved while its studios and intellectual properties were sold to various publishers. There were, however, some studios that weren’t bought in the auction.
Vigil Games is one of these studios."
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.

"Vigil Games may not be around anymore but their 2 Darksiders games really raised the bar for 3D action adventure games. Let's take a look at both titles' gameplay and worlds and see which one emerges victorious." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Darksiders 1 is a complete game but it’s obvious with Darksiders 2 they ran out of budget after the Ice world and the game just becomes a poorly paced mess.
I bought both Darksiders 1 and Darksiders 2(Death edition) for pc. They could have done a better job of the pc port of DS2 it was incredibly bad. Hope they land on their feet.
I'm sure Nintendo and platinum would love to have them.
Darksiders always felt like a mature darker, grittier version of zelda to me.
Sad. Loved Darksiders franchise. Hopefully someone picks it up, as long as it remains multi-plat. Wonder why even so called 'hardcore' gamers never picked this up. Guess too many people just want to blow heads off in a FPS year after year.
PG is interested in Darksiders
