Title: Weekend deal: Darksiders for $10
Post by: Ginaz on March 17, 2011, 06:19:00 PM
Darksiders is on sale this weekend on Steam for $10.  It seems to have gotten some pretty good reviews.  I would get it but it probably would only add to my pile of games I bought from Steam that I haven't played yet. :ye_gods:

I enjoyed this game, but it's pretty awkward at times without an XBox controller (and the last dungeon gets a bit bullshitty).  But I love Zelda style games and there aren't that many of them on the PC.  For $10.00, I'd say it's a pretty good buy if you're a fan of the genre and don't have a console.

One of the few games I stared playing and didn't finish. If you're going to get it I'd recommend playing at an easier or the easiest difficulty setting, unless you're a fan of pain I don't think most people will find the hardest difficult enjoyable.

It got a fairly blah, but entertaining, review on zero punctuation.

I can't buy a game that's a straight port because the control issues are rampant.

I had a lot of fun with this game, but I can't see playing it without a controller.

Definitely no control issues if you have a 360 controller on hand  :awesome_for_real:

I really need to pick myself up a 360 controller one of these days. This is one of the titles I'm always tempted to snatch up everytime it goes on sale (and it goes on sale alot) but yeah, no controller, no go.

I played it a bit, really didn't enjoy it that much. Bayonetta came out around the same time, and I liked it way more. I know people say that darksiders was supposed to be more zelda-esque, but all it was to me was a whole lot of running around.
