Darksiders 2

Darksiders 2 is featured on the July issue of Game Informer, along with new protagonist Death -- brother of the first game's anti-hero, War. Their uniformly grim appearance, you'll recall, is due to the fact they're a pair of horsemen of the apocalypse.

Game Informer also claims that the sequel will "deliver a richer experience," including new (and more) NPCs, a "detailed loot system" and some fresh new dungeons to explore. More specifically, Death will be traveling through "the world of Abyss," doing exactly the opposite of what you'd expect a guy named "Death" to be doing: trying to restore humankind.

That art is so awful.
I liked what little I played of the first. I should restart it and finish it.

I just posted about this over in the E3 thread. I'm really psyched for this game. I know the first one ripped off a ton of other game's ideas but I thought it was put together very well. This can't come out soon enough, though I'm sure the wait will be worth it.

I can't usually get behind games so defiant in their plagiarism. Digimon could be the greatest thing ever, but how can anyone respect such unoriginality? Maybe Darksiders isn't quite as flagrant, but I couldn't locate a single original idea in the first half hour of gameplay.

Then again I like all kinds of samey JRPGs, and even Jak 2! So I guess I pick and choose when to be offended.
