I can't believe there isn't a topic for this game i guess this could be a sleeper hit cause it definitely has potential.
Forgive me for stealing this info of wikipedia but i figure its worth it cause i get the feeling nobody has probably noticed this game.

Developer(s) Vigil Games
Publisher(s) THQ
Platform(s) PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
Release date 2009
Genre(s) Action-adventure Role Playing Game
Mode(s) Single-player, multiplayer

In Darksiders: Wrath of War, the player will play as War, one of the four legendary Hoursemen of the apocalypse.


Darksiders has been compared to God of War and The Legend of Zelda due to its fusion of combat and puzzle-solving. The majority of the game will occur in an unamed city on Earth which has become a battleground between angels and demons. The city has been rumored to be open-ended, meaning the player may choose to go where he/she wishes. However, certain parts of the city are initially locked.

War initially starts out with his Chaoseater sword for means of combat but will later have a total of four permanent weapons to choose from, which can be upgraded using certain items, as well as environmental weapons such as lamp posts, barrels, dumpsters, vehicles, etc. As the player advances through the game, War will gain Wrath Powers, which can unleash large amounts of damage. War will gain different gear items by completing areas in the game designated as dungeons. These items will allow the player to access and unlock different parts of the world much like the Metroid franchise. These items must also be used to defeat various bosses in the game. The player can also unlock Ruin, War's horse, and use it in combat as well as exploration.

Its not really an RPG i guess its more hack and slash with maybe a little RPG influences it also has some open world stuff i saw it in a developer diary..

To me it looks at least a lot better then Too Human wich im guessing is even more action based then this one.
Just look at the main character now thats badass and there arent any games i know of that are based on the mythology of the four horsemen.
