I'm guessing this is a down port of the PS4/XBOne version which I've always maintained would perform better on the Wii U hardware than trying to up port from the 360/PS3.
I didn't mean it was the sole part of THQ sinking, but it was definitely a large part of it.No, THQ sunk because of the uDraw tablet filling up warehouses and their licensed game business blowing up.

Even with or without other examples. Nordic games has already expressed interest in continuing the series, they bought the IP and asked to bring over some of the series' devs for a reason. It's really the only obvious conclusion to remastering a game for next gen that seems to have not much more than a cult following. THQ sunk because of how much money they threw at Darksiders II (iirc like 100mil) and it didn't do them any favors. I'm sure Nordic isn't interested in making similar mistakes. So what better way to gauge interest then by remastering old games, looking at how well they're selling and then give the team a budget based off of said information.
That's a given. Wii U, PS4 and Xbone are all GPGPU-reliant systems,while last-gen wasn't. Wii U did have some current-gen design philosophy in it, but was held back by dated hardware and power.
See my above post.DarkSiders II didn't sink THQ. They put a bunch of money into U-Draw and it didn't move any units. There were other games that factored into the failure, but that was the big one. Their license games also fell out due to mobile coming about.

Darksiders 1 is a much more fun game than the actual Zelda games but I'm hesitate on buying a remake of this. Doesn't look like much was added besides some minor graphical upgrades. The 60fps is nice, though. God, Darksiders 2 was garbage...

Btw, I don't get why the game has a provisional PEGI 16 rating now. Darksiders was PEGI 18 (but BBFC 15 ironically).
Man, I love Darksiders but that's just crazy talk lol.
Nah, Darksiders has actual combos and a juggle system. Plus it has more movement options. It also doesn't overstay it's welcome like nearly every 3D Zelda game and doesn't treat you like a child.
I prefer Darksiders as well. Not DS2 though. What a bloated wet fart that game is.
This istongue in cheek, but it's hilarious nonetheless: Destructoid's "How Darksiders is Blatantly Better than Zelda"probably

anyone played the wii u version of legend of kay? how does it run? I remember reading they managed at the last minute to bump the resolution from the 720p originally planned to 900p so as its the same developer that did that port I'm cautiously optimistic of a good job being done here
Still no news about free or not for owner of the standard game?
Also hope they gonna fix auto skip cutscenes problem so i can play this time.
Probably not.
Last time, with Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition, they gave it out to people who had bought the collection on Steam, but not people who'd bought the game [and DLC] individually. This led to a lot of bitching and negative Steam reviews from entitled dicks who couldn't get over how unfair it was that only some people got it for free. So it's probably better that nobody gets it free than some people getting it free and the rest feeling slighted and putting up negative reviews.
I miss THQThe best part about U draw was that the wii version sold something like millions and millions.
Than they decided to try the jump into the hd market for the franchise, two versions and two tablets...and...DEATHINITIVE EDITION for THQ!
Probably not.

I only played a few hours of each Darksiders game borrowing them from a friend of mine, and didn´t really like the gameplay and art style. As far as I remember, they looked and played like "Sixth Generation" (i.e., PS2) games and had already aged poorly by the time I got my hands on them (2013?). That said, I saw and heard lots of praise for the series.
Should I give them another chance?(by borrowing them again; I would never buy this remaster)
Keeping this gif alive.Warmastered huh?
You're doing God's work, here.

This is probably being considered a fundraiser for 3.I have already bought darksiders 1 twice (hardcopy and digital)
and Darksiders 2 twice (ps3 and ps4)
I am up for DS1 on PS4 if the PS3 graphics got a significant boost.
Great games..
Where is 3 ?
You need to go back and play some PS2 games to remind yourself what PS2 games looked like. The Darksiders games do not look like PS2 games.
Just was sent a presser from one of the PR companies I deal with. Darksiders Warmastered Edition releases on October 25, 2016, will cost $19.99 and will support 4k resolution on PC.
• 4k support and additional video options for PC
KAIKO is working on the port / update.
I'm confused. $19.99 for all systems or just the PC.Just was sent a presser from one of the PR companies I deal with. Darksiders Warmastered Edition releases on October 25, 2016, will cost $19.99 and will support 4k resolution on PC.

If all systems that is absolutely fantastic, but it worries me that it will be a terrible port.
The hyperbole knows no bounds on GAF.You need to go back and play some PS2 games to remind yourself what PS2 games looked like. The Darksiders games do not look like PS2 games.
Right, figured I should mention this here but I got into touch with THQ Nordic about Darksiders: Warmatered Edition today and I have been told that the game has been delayed to November 22.
Nothing better than early holiday bomba.
