Finally Darksiders is coming to the Genesis.

The most underrated series in the history. In my opinion it has one of the best lore. People should give this give a little more appreciation.

Darksiders 4 must come. Cause we need to play as Strife in 3rd person as all the other darksiders games

Looks like couch co-op is back on the menu boys

All I hear when War talks is Illidan Stormrage lol.

I think all the ppl hating on 3 should try it now with all the patches and the new "old" control scheme and combat flow. I was not thrilled at first but thanks to work Gunfire put into it I grew to love it almost as much as first two. I love this series and want to see it finally get the props it deserves! This game looks right up my alley and w/ couch co-op I couldn't be more thrilled to have my lil brother move back closer to home! Airship Syndicate really killed it with Battlechasers and this looks even better!

I was hoping this game would score high. Looking forward to trying it out for myself

Can't wait for February! Really wish they hadn't split the releases up though.

I wonder if they changed the camera angles to avoid turning this game into a First/Third person shooter. Not that I'm complaining since I love games like Diablo and will probably check this game out as well when it comes to the Switch

[ghostshellz]

My buddy beat it and just gave it ro me i burned out on this series but i like this new direction! Looks awesome! Time to install it lol i wasn't sure it was worth my time... glad i was wrong! Awesome review brother!

I really wish they would of made one the horseman pestilence. Like grotesque and toxic type moves. Maybe powers that call up insects and acid or poision that stuns enemies with sickness. Would of been a cool mix to the four I think

[alighoroubi]

Dark siders series, is underrated! Alot better than so many games with lost directions or new ips. Death stranding, assassins creed series or battlefield are some of them.

[majid]

i hope there is darksiders genesis 2 with death and fury .

[cax]

This game is also coming to Switch in February, not sure why that was omitted IGN.

[ColbyCadwell]

DS2 is the only game ive ever played to have dungeon designs on par with (but even better than imo) Zelda

[mgphatay]

Just now finished the main story and arena 12. This game is a blast.

[MrPangahas]

Nice, Can't wait for when they do the 4 player coop game with all the horsemen

[bradberryman]

I just picked it up on the PS4 and I love it

[jessiejames]

So strange that we have to wait until February to play this on console.

[redwitchlizzy]

Disappointed that we don't get all 4 horsemen, was super hoping for a diablo length darksiders experience with a group of friends.
