I've been ready for this since darksiders

Hmmm got my eye on this one. I bought the first one, but got bored of it after a while. The combat and world design didn't really appeal to me.
by Chris Bartlett Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 08:30 PM

This has been my most anticipated game of 2012 for a while now. I hope it doesn't get delayed anymore than it already has, but I want Vigil to make it as good as it can possibly be.

Looks even better then the first one.

OMG an ad. What is going on this is a first on GIO. (for me atleast)
by Ali Rapp Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 08:43 PM

Just picked up the first one today. I wouldn't call it the "XBOX's Zelda" like the GS game did, but the story's concept has drawn me in. This news post is pretty harmless, but--can someone tell me if Darksiders II is a direct story sequel? I want to know if I should desperately avoid all other news of it, now that I'm actually playing the first one.

God i want this game so bad!!!
by Der Shizno Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 08:51 PM

Man, I can't wait! Why did it have to be pushed back.

Why do videos on this site sometimes not show up for me? There is just nothing there a blank empty space

Hell yeah! This is sweet!
by Matt Harnett Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 09:05 PM

This looks great. I just beat the first one last week and I'm really excited for 2 now. I cant believe that when I fist saw that this was the cover I thought it was just a gothic RPG that wouldnt fit my style. Boy was I wrong. I cant wait to get this game now

Darksiders II is looking pretty awesome, the first one was amazing. I also want Metro: Last Light; too bad it's releasing in early 2013.
by Specter Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 09:53 PM

Ah yeah! I just can't seem to get enough of Darksiders II coverage.
by M3o5nster Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:12 PM

Looks worthy of a pre order.
by Thomas Quinn Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:26 PM

This game is at the top of my "must play" list.

Plus, that was Samael, in that video. Samael, the *** demon from the first game I couldn't get enough of. I demand more Samael!! And Vulgrim. Bring me Vulgrim!!!
by jakthewak Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:30 PM

Looks great. A spoiler warning with the video would of been nice. I wasn't expecting them to reveal the ending to Darksiders 1 in this video. My fault for not completing #1 before watching the video.
by jpm1276 Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 11:52 PM

Extremely excited for this game.
by silverfail Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 11:59 PM

The first one got boring half way through but this one looks promising
