Zero Punctuation: Darksiders

[YoUnG205]

I had not haerd anything about portals...
that sounds good.
However I think you have turned me off this game for now anyway.

 

[wooty]

Haha, I laughed so hard for the last minute or so, Yahtzee, great job again my boy

 

[Tharticus]

Darksiders is perhaps a nod to other video games and others got it to the punch. I wonder if the next extra punctuation involves about random character artwork?

 

[qbanknight]

venting out alot of frustrations over this game eh? understandable since it rips off so many games. heh heh, wait till you play bayonetta which i still don't understand why reviewers praised it so much for "originality" while calling darksiders derivative

 

[Sarge7777]

this was awesome made me laugh

Awesome loved the the rant about if he was War!

that was my favorite part

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

Well, I suppose I should be glad I am not buying that game...
Still, a good review, as always...
*Le Sigh*

 

[knight56]

Classic. This is going to be a fun month,

 

[SomeBoredGuy]

Tee hee. Definitely more re-watchable than some of the more recent reviews.

 

[crotalidian]

well... thats GoW clone 1, cant wait to see how the other 2 get reviewed limerick and accents are out so what new style will he concoct next.

shame the actual GoW is the last one out cause itll probably be a review a long the lines of "watch the last 3 weeks reviews then flip the opinions round"

 

[pubesz]

I would like to see a PC port of this. There aren't many Zelda-like games for computers.

 

[David Bray]

I'm getting a bit sick of the GoW rip offs. I thought you would have done Bayonetta first though. Darksiders looked like complete shite to me but it's been getting sterling reviews.
Blue and Orange portals though? HA! Cleptomania indeed.

"I'm a monster truck that looks like a man!"

 

[Toasty Virus]

I AM A MONSTER TRUCK THAT WALKS LIKE A MAN!

Awesome review Yahtzee!

 

[tiredinnuendo]

Meh, I'm really enjoying Darksiders as it's basically Zelda with combat that's far more fun. Of course, I'm also playing it on hard, so I have to pay attention a bit to what I'm doing. It's probably a much more bland combat system when you play on easy. Still fun to watch though.

Also, though I understand that it would've killed the joke to say this, Bayonetta is a Devil May Cry clone, not God of War, and there's a big difference there.

Arthas! oh no wait... War? who the hell?

 

[Saul B]

Awesome!

I stopped playing bass for 5 minutes to watch this one,
this is truly one of his best.

We get it! You love bass! Do you even have any fingertips left?

Anyways, better review than usual, was thinking the standard was starting to slip.

 

[Armored Prayer]

I agree that War's design does look rather ridiculous.

Hopefully this doesn't become a new trend in game character design.

 

[ALKATRAZACAZ]

"For the love of God....of War" , briliant, the tears will not stop.

 

[Jeffronian]

I wonder how long games like this can ride the God of War gravy train before it derails and hopefully destroys the copycat game designers in the process.

Since the game is destined to fail at least TRY something new for once.

 

[Suskie]

Oh come on, you're really going to group Majora's Mask with all the other Zelda games? I'll grant you that most Zelda games follow an identical formula, but MM is unlike anything I've ever played. Seriously.

Anyway, great review, as always.

 

[Aiden Rebirth]

This game was boring, and bayonetta was bigger, better, and more boob-uh I mean bad ass. I hope he doesn't consider bayonetta a gow clone, it's not it's an evolution of devil may cry, which predates gow. Sorry nerdgasm over.
