The game takes its inspiration from the apocalypse and battle of Armageddon described in the Book of Revelation, with the player taking the role of "War", one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Darksiders is primarily a combat action game, with weapons such as giant swords and miniguns available. War also regains his powers throughout the game, and has his own mount, a horse called Ruin. Action takes place both underground where puzzles play a large role, and above ground in which free roaming is allowed.

It may draw a little too much inspiration from its peers, but Darksiders is still a bloody good time.

8.0
An uproariously fun and enjoyable post-Apocalyptic adventure that is a little too familiar at times.

7.8
As it turns out, puzzle dungeons are apocalypse-proof.

8.0
If Kratos and Zelda had a baby in hell...

8.5
Fantastic missions, outrageous weapons, and awesome vehicles make the open-world mayhem of Saints Row: The Third an absolute blast.

8.0
Saints Row: The Third redraws the line for sheer absurdity and violence in video games several times over, then proceeds to rub it out entirely with a giant purple dong.

8.5
An open world adult theme park where we can treat ourselves to delightful acts of bloodshed and perversion.

7.7
We haven't seen a game so full of things like rampaging sex workers, bizarre celebrity cameos, and over-the-top setpieces like this before.
