Darksiders
Platforming similar to Dante's Inferno and storyline really close in comparison, almost like Dante's in hell and War is above him on Earth dealing with the consequences. lol
Anyway, it's a sick ass game. It's got everything from shooting pistols on horseback to conjuring up magic to swinging from chains into unmapped areas.
The character design is heavy and bulky, and that took some getting use to simply because I prefer characters like Dante(DMC) that are regular sized. These guys are big like Rescue Heroes(Fisher-Price toys).
Level design is pretty amazing with all areas, unreachable included, look full as if you could climb to them unlike many games where level barriers appear flat or discolored.
The story is really cool and I'm coming up on a big plot twist here pretty soon as I'm nearing the end.
The one complaint I do have from the game is actually some of the platforming. At times, I get lost and crammed up near a wall when I'm fighting someone after utilizing the lock-on feature and the controls for rides War takes through the game could be a little more delicately handled rather than controlled like a small character like War himself. The controls are too quick, is what I'm saying, and it took some getting use to.
