Cooking food so taking a break for a bit. This game is made of rape and win.

The visuals could use some polishing and i wish the maps were a little more expansive. I'm only about a hr in so that might improve over time.

The action is so fluid u don't have to worry about lame button combos.. u just beat the fucking shit out of shit. but its not too easy.. you really have to pay attention to whats around u and how to fight, u can get overwhelmed easy and get your ass beat quick.

Theres no stupid finishing move combos like god of war, u simply hit B when you get them to super low health and he does it. I also feel compelled to collect souls to get crap. its like getting money in zelda to buy shit. this time u buy weapons and power ups

Also i think the coolest thing so far is the bosses. after u beat them.. they show up as regular mobs in the game. which is really cool

It should open up quite a bit Tekki when you get about 3-4 hours in. I honestly havent played much, fiesta bowl, and company and wa strying to sleep...

**Kyo** · 2010-01-05 03:01

Also as said in another review kotaku(lol) is verifying the 360 version is showing excessive tearing. The review overall was complete drivel tho.

**Tekki** · 2010-01-05 05:23

Ya this has opened up into a real fucking remarkably fun game. Just straight up fun

**Saga** · 2010-01-05 05:56

did you pick up Bayonetta and this game or just Darksiders so far? pretty sure my heart is set on Darksiders, just need to convince myself.

**Kyo** · 2010-01-05 05:59

I picked up both, but I havent opened bayonetta.

**Saga** · 2010-01-05 06:53

ah alright. I'll need to wait until next week to grab Bayonetta. have either you or Tekki noticed any of the screen tearing issues that review was talking about or not really?

**Kyo** · 2010-01-05 07:32

I got the PS3 version, I havent noticed any screen tearing at all.

**Odesseiron** · 2010-01-05 07:53

I was going to pick this up today for 360, but I might consider for PS3 now, looking at the whole screen tearing thing. Some games it's quite bad. Not many though. For those of you that have the PS3 version, how bad is it?

**Kyo** · 2010-01-05 07:56

I havent seen any yet.

**tyven** · 2010-01-05 10:51

what is screen tearing? idk how to vidya terminology

**Qalbert** · 2010-01-05 10:54

when you get a horizontal split where part of it lags slightly behind causing the two sides not to line up
