I really hope Darksiders ends up with someone who appreciate the franchise, alot of people are asking for Platinum to take it, but I am not so sure, Bayonetta's story was so meeeeh, Darksiders has an edge when it comes to story, also Bayonetta feels japanese, Darksiders american, both are good in their own merits, but when you make a japanese developer do an american game it won't end good IMO, DmC didn't set well with players, Operation Racoon City was fun but still not worth 60$ at all, so it is complicated.
As for Lot.5: it has something awesome, Crawler Vigil games believed they were doing something amazing and undone before with Crawler, I really want to see what they were up to, they are very talented, so that's something to look forward to, also there is Frontlines Fuel of War which can help any developer wanting to get into FPS and afraid to make a new IP, Full Spectrum Warrior can also help a developer seeking tactical game, there is lack of those nowadays, de Blob is cool as well right ?!
well I hope we see future to most of the big titles, especially Darksiders & Crawler.
