Still sucks lol. The achievements are broken for some people in the game on Steam so a lot of people will not get credit for the beating the game achievement to unlock the weapon.

Can you make a large mention of Wii U in the OP? Not like retailers are making that kind of effort, so most wouldn't even know it's Wii U-bound. :/
Otherwise great OP and awesome title!
Nintendo is not allowing Vigil to say anything about WiiU version. We will update OT when Nintendo announced when will Wii U arrive, or maybe make brand new OT.

Darksdiers universe always had War, Death, Strife and Fury. This is fantasy universe, not an adaptation of "real one".

Pestilence isn't even a "real" horsemen if you want to get specific.
I just remembered you were the one who made it. No hard feelings it was just overkill. I felt like I got carpel tunnel by scrolling to the bottom of page 1

They sell the dongle with a controller in a bundle.
Yea, you have to pay for a 360 pad you may not need, but then you don't have to re-sync whenever you want to switch systems.
and wired 360 controller is way better than the wireless one(because there is no battery pack under it) anyway.

looking back i could have cut some sections out, but the hype man it gets to you. anyone creating an OT is usually a big fan. but its over now, mgs4/bf3/mk/acr type ot's are gaf history.
also, i found the best UK price for the game: £22.85 at simplygames
http://www.simplygames.com/info/19401
i think all the versions are limited edition anyway so thats a mighty fine price
I'm pretty sure it does. The first one did.

Yeah it does. Same as the first game. Plug and play.

I'd imagine that Fury will be fun to play as. A whip user with magic attacks? Hell yeah.
Strife may play like Dante, methinks.

Sooooo epic! So this is the final trailer we will get.
"In the final Darksiders II pre-release gameplay trailer, Death himself explains why he has embarked upon his quest, and who should steer clear of his path."
I did not catch all that he has said.
"A reaper of souls, and ender of worlds, a slayer of ??? "
A slayer of kin

So ready for this game!
"His fate concerns me... yours does not."
Death has the most fitting voice acting for a character that I can recall. The sound of the guy's voice and his delivery is pitch perfect.

Holy **** at the part where he was riding a horse on top of a giant monster. The art direction is just so good in this game.

Agreed. The VA for death is brilliant.
So awesome, finally something that gives us more than a couple of words of Michael Wincott's performance. He sounds fucking perfect, love it.

I'm guessing that those who pre-ordered from THQ's store will get their steam codes on launch day?

Damn that looked great, lots of color.
Yep, his voice immediately hits you like a ton of bricks. The raspy tone and his delivery fits the character like a glove. Just nailing something like this alone can add so much to a game's atmosphere. Man, dat voice. It's one that will stick with you for sure.
That would be incorrect.
All media got the same video from THQ. According to the file, it was captured from the PC version.
Here's a HD 720p stream on YouTube:

Exactly what I was thinking, looks amazing from all sides.
There is no way that this is from the PC version:
If it was recorded on PC, then they wanted to recreate console conditions.
Go on a 28min 30sec mark and see for yourself how PC version looks.

Glorious.
I have no idea what the settings were for either the game or the capture setup, I can only tell you that the file was labeled as being from the PC version of the game.
Wow, great final trailer! Wincott was an excellent choice for Death. Whoever was in charge of casting him deserves some serious kudos.
*I'm not sure why anyone is worried about the IQ of the trailer. Even if it is from the PC version, it's obvious the settings aren't configured for anti-aliasing.
Yeah, they were all nicely designed.
This time we will have a ton of mini-bosses also. Even in side-quest dungeons.

Can anyone imagine Alan Rickman as Strife? :lol: "I will kill him slowly... WITH A SPOON!"
You can get all the achievements, but some might take multiple tries to unlock, i.e you have to save a lot, so you can just reload if an achievement didn't unlock.
A little annoying, but it works.
