GameSpy: Darksiders: Wrath of War Preview

GameSpy writes: "The last time we saw Vigil Games' Darksiders: Wrath of War it was merely a brief introduction during the E3 blitz. Since then the team has been hard at work on this upcoming action title but the press has been left in the dark. That all changed last night as THQ unveiled another sliver of Darksiders during its annual Gamers Day event. What we've seen might be a little less "God of War with guns" than the previous glimpse, but the game still looks like a bloody cocktail of hack 'n slash action and gunplay.

Just like the snippet from E3, THQ presented Darksiders in a brief five-minute hands-off demo that showed off what the game's about. The session started with a trailer featuring snippets of War, the protagonist of Darksiders, juxtaposed with quotes from Revelation 6:4. "And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword." Indeed, War does ride a vicious steed, and his blade is great in size and scope. War is locked in conflict with both angelic and demonic forces, who've sold him and his fellow horsemen up the proverbial river."

Spiffy:
-Looks like a gory supernatural action title that we await hands-on time with

Iffy:
-The two demo sections look a bit "post-apocalyptically generic;" some frame-rate issues

I mean is anything ever an upgrade for the PC Master Race?

Booggeyman2826d ago

When it comes to graphics rarely, but a bit of new content would have made this much more appealing for all gamers, including those on PC.

Maxor2825d ago

Lets get real. The PC got this upgrade on day one. All they had to do was crank the graphics to max and run it at 60 FPS.

VJGenova2825d ago

No free upgrade I take it ...

They didn't when they remastered 2...

JamesBroski2825d ago

The "Deathinitive" edition of Darksiders 2 was disgusting anyway. Never seen a game with so much stuttering. I don't think they did anything but to resell it to most of their fans.

As usual for any remaster game from last gen.
