Cool, always wanted to check that out. How does it play with a keyboard and mouse?

Get it, its great.

Bumping for great justice. An excellent Zelda-style title that changes things up with the Zelda formula more than the past decade of titles.

If you haven't played this game, you're looking at 15-25 hours of heart-container-searching (equivalent), boss-key-collecting, mini-boss-killing goodness. Well worth $5.

Darksiders is the finest assembly of ideas stolen from other games since the mighty Uncharted series. I heartily recommend it.

Okay, I wanted this on 360, but I can't pass up the PC version for 5 bucks.

Well, the game has full 360 USB controller support. So you're doing pretty fine. And as long as your PC isn't ancient, I don't think the performance will take much of a hit.

I played it with keyboard and mouse and had no issues whatsoever =).

I have a 360 gamepad now, but I think I'd still use the k+m.

Already got it from buying Warhammer 40k space marine.

It's just that I'm an achievement whore on 360 :P

Definitely worth it for anyone who hasn't played it yet.

The 10 hours or so I played of it on 360 was alright. Might be good for 5 bucks.

Awesome, think I'll buy it.

#22 Posted by MikeHawk (368 posts) - 1 year, 8 months ago

Just bought it. does it have ps3 controller support? I don't have a 360 controller. Still worth it even on a keyboard and mouse, I guess.

Every game that supports a 360 controller supports a PS3 controller if you use motioninjoy with the 360 controller emulator.

#24 Posted by MikeHawk (368 posts) - 1 year, 8 months ago

@CL60: well I have motioninjoy installed, so that works. thanks!
