Classic Game Room - DARKSIDERS for OnLive review

[@kR0B45]

For some reason, im reminded of the first Fable when i see that guy on this game with his big sword holstered on his back. The fact that he basically does and assassin rush helps with that also.

[@ProtoMario]

Every-time i went to review this it was flagged for copyrighted music, can ya believe it?

[@AustinGriffinAGENTERTAINMENT]

Such an underrated game. This game had a great story! Some people think the game is just "meh".........but that's fine, they can just go back to playing their Call of Duties.

[@crdude806]

how the fuck do you compare this to cod? god damn this world is fucked...kids these days will be running it someday..

[@spunkflunk]

wtf how come you get good quality? I tried onlive out, tried out darksiders 2 and the quality looked like it was a wii game, and it got no more than 20fps!

[@marcusmalone]

One of the most underrated (or at least under purchased) games of '10.

[@berkinbuoy]

TO ALL: This was uploaded again because the previous upload was in 240p. And because this is "Classic Game Room HD" it needs to have HD content! :D Please thumbs up so others won't ask!

[@CraigSips]

@afroman920 yep, and its big.

[@JimmyCatlett]

I just ordered this for PC and looking so forward to playing it. Reminds me a bit of "Soul Reaver" which I absolutely loved.

[@LividLeon]

The onlive just stream and send commands to the sever that process the game. So the onlive unit is like a video player.

[@thuzan117]

@ZENXMETAL agreed, that was my first impression too but it's awesome.

[@rafety85]

@gumbyx84 lots of pc games will show the 360 buttons if you a 360 controller pluged in. for example gta iv, F1, and almost ever games for windows live game

[@xxcrysad3000xx]

@fingrid I'm pretty sure Mark makes a Cosmic Carnage reference in 105% of his videos, I don't think it will be forgotten any time soon.

[@Jorgie000]

@MAGAIVER lol very true. I stand corrected

[@AnthonyTheAwesome500]

@McBlemmen yea this was the first demo that i needed a walkthrough for its the longest demo i ever played

[@RonanChrisMurphy]

I love your videos (and I do not even play that much), but did online pay for placement in this video? This is the first one that has felt like an ad.

[@alexisonfiredb]

Only thing youtube needs to change back is the way it shows video updates

[@bambinosto]

@KshU94 not the console but you can install onlive on pc

[@IDMWEIGHTSIDM]

thats OnLive if anybody missed it.

[@Kytseo]

@SpecterM91 The combat with that glaive looks more like Dark Sector to me, also, the game also has the orange & blue portals from...wel...Portal (from what I hear)

[@LunarChez]

@RawHunterX Onlive has the same buttons as the 360 except they aren't colored.

[@chairmobile]

@Holktube Just looked it up, you're right. I concede.

[@HaganeSteel]

This is on sale on OnLive right now, and holy cow is it a good game! I love it!

[@killa77skrilla]

This is a must have for the 2600

[@SiGhast]

@superhuman295 Haha. No worries here.

[@SolidSnake684]

This is one of my favorite games of this gen. I simply love it! I think its very underrated like Mafia 2. A game i loved but nobody else gave a crap.

[@DarkPhalanax]

Thanks THQ bundle for this awesome game!! One of the best for de PC!!

[@adamwhart2011]

Awesome mix of Zelda and God of War with refreshing art design so I really liked it....

[@RawHunterX]

@motosportjunkie Yhey do but not the same colors, in Darksiders for example, they are painted the same way as the 360 ones so that makes me wonder if it is just the 360 game emulated for Onlive with nothing distinctiv.

[@Kayspaify]

bought it on psn today looking forward to play

[@eastcoasteric]

Apparently Mark forgot about the amazing Vextrex version of Darksiders! They made it in 4D!

[@RawHunterX]

@Minority119 So let me get this, you can hook up the PS3/360 controllers to the Onlive? And if so, the buttons layout from each game changes?

[@ngilford1]

@fsmetal Agreed. I love this game!

[@Tikayy]

I was waiting for this review for a while :D God of War + Zelda = Darksiders

[@thuzan117]

i bought this game as soon as i could and was surpised at how hard it was to find despite all the hype and dev diary's. i honestly loved it immensely, the fights were always challenging especially towards the end, the puzzles fun but not agonizing, i actually only had two complaints about it, 1: i would have preferred more interasctive quick time events because in this you just press B and war fucks up whatever he grabs without any help from you. 2: it ended, it is by no means short but fun.

[@spiderjerusalem100]

I enjoyed this game, it wasn't particularly original but the combat was solid, the puzzles were very good and the art style looks awesome.

[@VinceLesniewski]

Mark, you always review the best games, and I swear you mentioned PC? Yeah, I need to pick this up.

[@sfrazeur]

Mark has got to review the "Back to the Future" film trilogy.

[@Axonteer]

i have a 2.5mbit cable connection and its still not enough because onlive has no server in europe....

[@RuthIessVillain]

@VoorkJTV God of War isn't a Beat 'em up... it's a Hack n Slash.

[@Nijika497]

in the description it says "also available for Xbox 360, PS3 Playstation 3 and PC" PS3 and Playstation 3 are 2 different systems?

[@xxcrysad3000xx]

@DoodeWarrior Actually no, I don't remember that.

[@matjacks100]

@shadowboyt The better part I have yet to significantly see.

[@lctb51]

How does the little onlive box render the games? Does it have a processor and a gpu??? I still cannot understand how it really works!

[@haydenbarnes3242]

i expected some " burning people with monsters and cutting them in half-itude" for this review. and i was satisfied

[@parakathepyro]

i loved the atari 5200 version!

[@godfather12m]

I heard they made a vectrex port of this

[@Henkoz]

Played this game when it first came out, I really enjoyed it. Great gameplay and I really enjoy the "cartoony" graphics!

[@CosmicKangaroo]

@GamerBoyGod You forgot to ask when is it coming out for the Atareks 5201 =D

[@jenmonday]

it's so weird to think that thq AND onlive don't exist anymore, and haven't for like 6+ years now

[@Hydros92]

I played the demo to this back when it was due to be released and wasn't impressed but here it actually looks worth the time it would take to play it

[@jgcooper]

would you consider the sega genesis version to be superior to that of the atari 5200 due to the latter's lack of blast processing implementation?

[@kbakerde]

@p1ngu1no The Serpent Holes? They just warp you from point A to point B. You walk a long a pretty self evident path and voila, you arive at your destination.

[@pyrox52]

its most like legend of zelda and the vector based graphics of the vectrex version are beutiful

[@jameshutchins1639]

rented it off gamefly, and I'm loving every second of it!

[@thesacredbeast2000]

the problem i have with darksiders is that war looks like they had 4 character designs and couldn't decide which one to use, so they just fused them all

[@TheEagleCorpse]

Probally gonna pick this one up

[@Crit-Chance]

@GamerBoyGod I heard it's coming to the 32x. I don't know about Vectrex tho.

[@o.binwheelie9733]

I love this game so much.

[@Hawkeye19821]

I didn't quite get where you can rent this game from, could anyone help me out?

[@MrKvittot]

ok mthanks man

[@xdoomsdaydevicex]

Classic Game Room, defiantly in HD this time!

[@antARCTIX]

this game seems a lot like ghost rider for playstation 2 which was a highly underrated game.

[@Mozilafoxx]

also you can get this game putting in to a blander a god of war 3, castelvania and devil my cry and you get darksiders

[@kuhj278]

@Croxyndul Story is epic, gameplay really fun and challenging. It's awesome

[@musroomuff]

Just got this today and loved everything about it and it only cost £4

[@Kytseo]

@SpecterM91 what's wrong with thinking it as both?

[@SakuraAvalon]

@hampurilainenXXL Nah. God of War refference, cause of the rest of it ending with "green orbs come out and give you health"

[@reddy112]

@Ostnizdasht206 the style is similar

[@Yunico]

@DVM981 Because steam has companies backing it

[@theswedishdude1]

@EphraimRodrigez well there called evil for a reason :3

[@Snotnarok]

@ThePOKOkitty Right I must have been confused with every RPG ever having dungeons, and dungeon crawlers being by definition spending all of the actual game inside a dungeon only to leave to get to shops and what not. In darksiders and zelda you traverse the world to get to another dungeon or temple to gain a new power. But ya know what think what you want I really don't care. :)

[@rvdsm]

@Hyperkiller113 The internet evolves. There is no stopping it.

[@demonchacer]

have this on pc. only reason i got it was dantes inferno isnt on pc :( its not a bad game but it really reminds me of gow alot

[@MrKvittot]

should i get this or dantes inferno

[@theboarman]

@Scaramanganexuspluss to much awesomeness!

[@GoldenPSP]

darksiders on sale on onlive

[@kbakerde]

Really good review. Not only do I have this game, I have it for Onlive. Fios 25Mps connection and everything runs well at 720p. Game is a lot of fun, a lot of customizing, weapons and locations. I agree targeting sucks, swordplay is good but it can get jittery at times. I did not have the sword issue he did though. All in all, a more graphic Zelda style game and I am enjoying it.

[@davids8aff]

@jcatlett1976 i loved the soul reaver and legacy of kain series! i would love to see them come to xbox/ps3

[@cheleryuken]

one of the best games ive played for ps3!! really good game characters, story, puzzles etc.... it also feels like a mature version of the legend of zelda. too bad such a good game is almost unknown compare to its competition but u can feel all the efford programmers did on this game!!

[@steelhacker3]

It also looks like the devil may cry sword fighting stiyle

[@eastcoasteric]

@NintendoAmy When they say it's like Zelda they are talking about how the game uses a open but linear world to explore along with a large amount of interesting Zelda style puzzles all through out the game. This is like a mix of God Of War / Dantes Inferno / Zelda Ocarina Of Time and Devil May Cry. Those games mixed into one with a pretty good story IF you follow it closely, is what Darksiders is. So if you would enjoy a good mix of those games, you'd enjoy this. I picked it up for $15, a deal!

[@psnTurok35]

@portalplayer sure looked like it, mate.

[@Holktube]

@chairmobile Heavy Rain is actually less original than you think. Its a lot like their first game, Indigo Prophecy.

[@TheSynrgy1987]

got darksiders with the humble THQ bundle(PC via steam) not played it yet as my internet speed is beyond awful and the downloads 10GB, looks better then i expected, i've not played many of these type of games so looking forward to it.

[@DarkSingin]

this game was my shit back when i played it. cant wait for a sequel

[@SeXaR68]

@jigsawbellic The game ALSO remind me of Conan. "You scratch like a child! - Conan"

[@viddicake]

Game of the Year for me.. God of War, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Portal ... awesome

[@Snotnarok]

@ThePOKOkitty I see what you did thar. Needs more blastprocessing.

[@MrBacchus18]

I'm really surprised Darksiders didn't sell better, it is actually pretty good.

[@keioII]

@Hyperkiller113 What the others said!

[@tatsu13]

@UrbanZ0mbie OH GOD, THE ONE THING I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL COUNTLESS PEOPLE FOR A LONG TIME NOW!!!!! THANK YOU!!!

[@Drilbit]

doesnt liam o brian do the voice of garra in naruto?

[@superjam18]

ive had this game since january of last year and I still didnt beat it only because i didnt feel like finding all of the final sword pieces yet at the end of the game before beating the final boss.

[@Marmaduke-i6e]

I have 30 mbit internet and I live in Europe. I guess that OnLive servers are in USA so my response time is high :(

[@RawHunterX]

So this game is really played on the Onlive? Because I see the 360 buttons on screen...

[@FMMDM]

to me,this was an awesome experience.everybody compares it to gow,but,i think its actually pretty decent.its a nice change.and i hear there will be a darksiders 2

[@MetalBacon64]

Wow this looks great

[@spspear81]

this was a sleeper hit mark. It's understandable you did not know of and I appreicate you reviewing it. The game is fantastic.

[@Satadrian]

can you burn monsters and cut tehm in half?

[@Sqeeners]

The main character is like jack of blades from fable 1.:X
