Darksiders II is an action-packed adventure RPG game for Xbox and PS3.
You are playing the role of Death, one of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse. With the aid of his horse, Despair, and a Raven named Dust you have to find your way around the vast worlds solving puzzles and defeating your enemies in a war between Heaven and Hell.
A great action packed game that along with defeating your enemies you have to solve puzzles to get to your next mission which means you have to think rather than just pushing buttons and killing people and there are more weapons and armour upgrades available throughout the game to build up your character. The graphics and sound are excellent with the worlds you explore very vivid and the controls (once I learned them) were quite easy to use and control your character.
I am still playing the game as it is quite a long game but so far am really enjoying it and as they is plenty to do am not getting bored. Some of the puzzles I found quite taxing but as with anything once solved seemed glaringly easy. A good entertaining game and value for money.
Rating: 4/5
