QUOTE
As the game begins, the war between heaven and hell is wrapping up, and the demons appear to have won. Led by The Destroyer-the central bad guy of the game-they've turned the Earth into a wasteland. As you move through the world, you'll find it populated with all kinds of dregs from the underworld, from huge burly demons to monstrous sand worms and everything else that haunts your dreams in between. Occasionally, you'll encounter a demon and an angel still skirmishing, and considering how massive both are, that's a pretty exciting show to watch. You'll be itching to get involved in the fight because, well, you're War. I mean, come on.


QUOTE
The action is a seamless blend of melee-attack combos, intense shooting action and, of course, a little horseplay. Don't forget, you are one of the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, so where would you be without your trusty steed, Ruin? He's not just for transport either; you can use your weapons and special attacks while mounted on his fiery back, and he has some special moves and attacks of his own, as any supernatural horse of the apocalypse should.


QUOTE
The overall structure of the game is the open world, in the sandbox-style that has become so ubiquitous as of late, but does seem well suited to the subject matter here. There is a large city that has been ravaged by the war between the angels and demons, with destruction everywhere you look and humans turned into zombie-like husks. You're free to roam the city, but you'll find certain parts inaccessible until later in the game.


My comment : OMG a "post apocalyptic demon infested world" game is like a dream come true . Hope this surpass every similar games at the past , especially the crappy disappointing Hellgate : London . Tight combo and sandbox gameplay , Im in man ..... drool.gif drool.gif

Gosh, the screen tearing is absurd in this game until the point that it tires my eyes... Control is not so responsive also... Still, it's a pretty fun game, and most importantly, simple, it's quite easy to get a hang of the combo system. Don't mistaken 'simple' with 'easy' tho, it's quite punishing if you keep mashing buttons and don't practice to dodge and time combo correctly.

The IGN video review turned me off because I hated the puzzle dungeons in Zelda.
Is it as frustrating as those ones?

Um, i never played a single Zelda games before, no idea how hard are those. But if you have played soul reaver series before, which is a very similar genre, darksider is way way easier in term of both puzzle and combat.

I suggest you better upgrade the gun for eaiser kill.

First when the sandworm just move around, go along side and use the sword to hit the head chain helm. Once the head chain helm is broken, you will know what to do.

Finish the game and it's good. Just didnt get the storyline and kinda confusing but gameplay is good.

I just got it just now and so far the game is amazing. It's almost just like God of War, except with a few twists and turns, and also steals a bit from Zelda's dungeons. To me, that's a good thing, because it almost feels like a new experience.

30fps kills it though, I would favor 60fps over VSync.

You guys are lucky, at least you can play the game properly. My box fails to run the game for more than 5min, it just freezes for no f***ing reason, with patch wihtout patch.
Other games run fine, and i tested the game on other consoles, runs fine.
So, f***ing unlucky me.

hmm i find that this game is good in its own way, not to compare with games like GOW.

the only downsite for this game its the camera angle, sometimes it got stuck in some wall/texture.

The game isn't really that great imho.. i bought it 2nd hand a while back and it's not very memorable. (edit: thought id just do it for the easy 1000/1000 but it's still incomplete in my collection)

if you want to know the solution to where you're stuck at the best place to go is gamefaqs.com

i do play this game few days. The game to be said ok for me. But hard to control the camera angel like im slashing a ghost or shooting many fly on riding the angelic beast mission. The game is fast action would be ok? I notice that this game a bit like warhammer 40k design. Char design so big.

dun like it.. character and all is not good imho, some guys like this type of game, its a matter of preference maybe, if i'm looking for God of War alternative, i would be looking at Dante Inferno, which is 99.9% god of war
