GT shows off new Darksiders gameplay, Mark Hamill doing VO

darksiders4

This looks fucking mint. A GT video preview of Darksiders – after the break – has shown off a heap of gameplay features from the imminent devily actioner, revealing a sandbox environment, glidey wings, dungeons, GoW-style bosses and tons more.

There’s also a clip there of Mark Hamill doing one of the voices. This merely adds to the awesome.

The Vigil game’s out on January 8 for PS3 and 360. Seriously, watch it. We’re getting code soon, so we’ll stick up the first 20 minutes or so as soon as we can.

In my eyes this game looks better than bayonetta, i really hope it turns out decent but i think it would be hard job to mess this up enough for me not to want it!

Yep, much more interested in this than Bayonetta. Fingers crossed it’ll be seriously good stuff.

will it play out like:

kill boss get ability to scale walls to access new areas
kill boss get jump glide ability to access new areas
kill boss get grapple hook to access new areas

if this is a next gen soul reaver, i’ll be in heaven

So the mint goes with the lamb, right? :-D

It’s almost impossible to stop saying mint when it’s been ingrained into you from birth.
Thankfully however a sprig of actual mint is rather tasty.

This game was completely off the radar until i watched that vid and noticed the zelda similarities, its now on pre-order.

Sorry don’t want to sound like a graphic whore but is this supposed to be a next gen game?
What are you fighting in this game?Demons?Cause they look more like Aliens…
I can see how things will turn out with this.1 month at best hyped and then noone will remember it…
Best to save money cause there are many and much better titles along the way

My point is don’t get too excited and throw your money just like that…there are many titles coming early 2010…and this seems mediocre…
Also it may have some Zelda elements but don’t get fooled by that…Zelda has it’s own unique feeling that you’ll never find in another game

To me this looks rather interesting. ‘Mediocre’ isn’t a word I’d use to describe it at all, tbh. But one man’s meat is another man’s… vegetable. Or something.
