and still, nobody will buy darksiders *facepalm*

BanBrother4074d ago

Someone will pick it up eventually I hope. Such a waste of a perfectly good franchise. They really nailed the combat in the 2nd game. One can hope that someone like Platinum Games picks it up.

STK0264074d ago

The game industry is a business like any other, publishers and developers are out there trying to make as much money as possible.

From what has been reported, Darksiders 2 lost THQ money, mostly due to only getting decent sales for a high budget game.

Publishers during THQ's sale weren't looking for a quality franchise to pick up, but one that would sell well. Since the Darksiders name doesn't sell, a publisher might as well develop its own franchise rather than buy Darksiders.

The game just might get much better by the time it's released next gen

-Alpha4074d ago

Well needed change. Can't wait to see the future. I want to be a fan again

ape0074074d ago

hopefully they build a new great engine

NYC_Gamer4074d ago

Why did T2 keep Yukes as the developers?

2pacalypsenow4074d ago

Because they been making wwe games since like 1999 and they make good games and know how to make wwe games , I think

MrBeatdown4074d ago

I'm kind of disappointed about that. I was hoping for a new developer and engine and everything. I read that Visual Concepts is helping out with it, so hopefully that at least brings some changes to the games.

I was always partial to the arcade wrestling games like Saturday night slam masters, wwf superstars, wrestlefest, wrestlemania, wrestle war and then a NES classic... pro wrestling. By the time the N64 era of wrestling games happened, I wasnt into wrestling much anymore (tv & games).

jjb1981818d ago

It was all about the Starman Somersault or the Tiger Claw!

Fist4achin818d ago

Starman was awesome. I also remember a tan dude with bright yellow hair. Good times!

gurp819d ago

Smackdown 1+2 on PSX
A lot of hours went into those two games

jbrock11819d ago (Edited 819d ago )

Virtual Pro Wrestling 1 & 2 > Most games on that list.

Also, WCW/NWO Revenge should be #2 minimum.

Are Wrestling Games Getting Worse?

Some of you may know that the latest instalment in the WWE gaming franchise 2K20 was released late last year to generally poor reviews. Some of this was based on graphical issues, but mostly it was due to the many glitches and bugs found – many of which are hilarious to witness.

Fire Pro needs more love. The last PS4 title gets regular playtime from me.

I hear that there are financial troubles at the studio, but I'm hopeful for a Switch port one of these days.

The Wood1552d ago

Anyone remember Giant Gram Wrestling on the Dreamcast .....

Rambokind1552d ago

Ah hell yes! That was loads of fun.

Acecalibur1552d ago

Fire Pro just gets better. Buy it.

micdagoat191552d ago

I have Fire Pro for PS4 and PC but it seems more of like a Sim creator rather than people actually playing out matches. I still dont like anything as much as the N64 games

b163o11551d ago (Edited 1551d ago )

Golden Era of wrestling games in the Golden Era of wrestling. I've been contemplating going back and getting a N64 and getting those classic's
