Meet Your Maker in Darksiders II

I have officially been hyped!

Question: is this one going to be another Zelda clone or are they going for something different? I found the first game alright although not great, but it would be interesting to see them develop more on those ideas.

Also, Darksiders is still a freaking horrible name. Couldn't it have been...I dunno, "The Horsemen Chronicles" or something more descriptive of what it is? Like Vinny has said, this just sounds like Darksliders like they're some sort of blackened hamburger slider or something...

Can't wait,Darksiders 2 will kick major ass!

I have mixed feelings about this; I'm excited to play the game, but the character design really leaves me cold. War looked goofy and like something out of a middle-school student's notebook, but I dug it in sort of a Warhammer 40k kind of way. This design has the same weaknesses without the strengths that redeemed War's look for me. Also, I agree that for me, Death will always TALK LIKE THIS.

I want to see the game 
but i'm really sick of these developers talks trailers

Man, that first Darksiders was great. I hope this lives up to it.

Want.... WAAAAAAAANT!!!

Loved Darksiders!

Growing up I was a Huge Zelda fan . As an adult Darksiders was like the Zelda game that gave me what I loved but with that added Dark overtone that Adult me really wanted.

Sadly nintendo have spoilt the Zelda series for me with the Wii, crappy PS2 era graphics and I have come to HAAATE the motion controls on that abomination of a console... I may still be a bit sore over the waggle to roll in Donkey Kong Country Returns btw the game that broke my tolerance for the Wii. Fuck you nintendo for treading on my childhood memories!

I cant wait to play Darksiders 2 however.

Thank you Darksiders for being the series Nintendo Failed to make.

Ps. Yes I know that there may be an over reaction at nintendo in there but I'm pretty annoyed about it none the less.

Just as i didn't care for wars voice actor, i also don't care for deaths, still stoked for this game tho.

Also 1 big scythe or 2 small scythe aint much of an innovation in the genre.

Todd McFarlane approves.

The little nitpicky things you guys complain about, seriously....

I won't even have an objective opinion on this game, because I had such a good time with the first one. I'll probably love this regardless of how good it actually is.

Of course they used Death. Who else would they use? Plague? Famine?

I wouldn't be surprised if they never used Plague or Famine, and if they did, they would find some excuse to make them like War & Death.

The color scheme they chose for the logo makes me think Death is a 3rd Street Saint.

As for the remaining two horsemen, I wouldn't be shocked if (if this game is a success), they rounded it out with Darksiders 3, featuring all 4 horsemen. It's going to be pretty hard for single characters to keep carrying full games by themselves.

They already did, by changing them to Fury and Strife. Though I'm not offended by that in the least.

I get that it's marketing, and I get that they're attempting to be dramatic, but mostly they come off as people a little too enthusiastic about describing their DnD character...

I enjoyed Darksiders and I have hopes for this game, but to be fair I prefer my Death liking cats, talking in all caps, and prepared to murder a curry.

Yes. All the way yes!

I would still rather play as Famine.

Holy crap forget any more sequels passed this one. Give me all the scythes you got and my money is yours.

My most anticipated game of 2012.

Easily.

I second that.

Finally! A game starring Skeletor!
