Whilst Darksiders may of casually adopted some of the best bits of gaming, they chose the best games to take them from
From what we’ve been hearing, Darksiders is supposed to be, despite it ‘borrowing’ many of the concepts from, for example, the Legend of Zelda franchise, a good, dependable gaming experience. However, because it’s not had the same exposure as you’d expect for a game that is getting pretty high ratings across the board. Well don’t fret if you ain’t too sure about whether to part with your cash for Darksiders, as you’ll soon be able to try before you buy.
Now, game demo’s are often underrated in the modern day gaming experience, seen more as promotional exercises (remember, you were only able to get a Killzone 2 demo if you pre-ordered the game), despite it being really easy to download them, as opposed to waiting for you gaming mag to come through with a custom disc that usually resembled some type of hacking tool. THQ still seem to be showing the demo some love, and possibly fueled by the drive for more sales, so will be giving you a whole 90 minutes (for the ‘average’ gamer, whoever that is) of Darksiders for you to play.
The longest demo (that wasn’t a mulitplayer one, they cheat) I’ve played was probably Bioshock 1, which allowed you to play the entire first chapter, and persuaded me I really needed to play this game. I wonder if Darksiders will do the same? Darksiders is out now, but the 90 minute demo is coming soon to XBLM and PSN.
