Darksiders is an action-adventure video game developed by Vigil Games and published by THQ. 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.

Darksiders pulls together concepts from a ton of different games, but the way it pieces these things together manages to feel exciting.

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

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

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