Console Monster - The original Darksiders seemingly came from nowhere, surprising many with its fluid action combat coupled with dungeon exploration and puzzle solving, wrapped in a uniquely styled apocalyptic wasteland. Whilst Darksiders 2 follows in its footsteps, adding some brilliant new features from loot to more customisable combat, it falls short on delivering an epic adventure on the same level as War's.

"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.
The release date has been revealed for The Art of Darksiders II Hardcover Edition.
