Darksiders with God of War combat and graphics?yes please

So darksiders with all the good stuff removed.

nope.avi

 

[sangreal]

cool, I wonder if they have any kegerators left

 

[Iadien]

Someone buy RF and remake the original.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Sony will buy the Darksiders license, make it exist within the God of War universe.

Bam. God of War 4: Kratps vs. the Four Horsemen

 

[DimmuBurgerKing]

It won't happen, but I would be overjoyed with either Platinum or Nintendo buying the Darksiders IP. I feel like either of them could do great things with it.

 

[Nemesis_]

Platinum isn't a really good fit for the type of game Darksiders is. Not sure why people are jumping to that.

 

[Jintor]

Homeeeeeewoooooorlllllllld

 

[Jawmuncher]

Someone needs to buy Red Faction and Summoner. Reboot both of those and its nothing but profit.

 

[epmode]

I hope the Homeworld IP also includes digital distribution rights for the old games. I can't believe they haven't been rereleased yet.

 

[Mupod]

Platinum isn't a really good fit for the type of game Darksiders is. Not sure why people are jumping to that.

Clover made Okami.

 

[TaroYamada]

Red Faction, Homeworld and Darksiders are the franchises I desperately want to see saved. I'd love for de blob to be saved as well.

 

[Alrix]

Platinum isn't a really good fit for the type of game Darksiders is. Not sure why people are jumping to that.

because they expressed interest in buying it ("for the right price")

 

[Vazra]

Platinum isn't a really good fit for the type of game Darksiders is. Not sure why people are jumping to that.

Platinum showed interest into buying it so that actually plays factor into it and I think they are capable of doing it better.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Lol at the people thinking one of the big three will buy Darksiders.

Never gonna happen, they are interested in their own IPs, not purchasing others.

Crytek is most likely since they hired a few of the Vigil guys.

 

[Gonzo The Great]

It won't happen, but I would be overjoyed with either Platinum or Nintendo buying the Darksiders IP. I feel like either of them could do great things with it.

Nintendo is reluctant to use most of their current IPs, much less Zelda clones. F-Zero am cry.

 

[mil6es]

Seriously if somebody buys Homeworld I will loose my shit

 

[Omega]

I would like to see Sony Santa Monica do a Darksiders game.

no thanks. although it would be better than DS2 i don't think they could do Darksiders.

 

[Seventy_X_Seven]

Red Faction: Guerrilla was made before the hardware was ready. A new Red Faction similar to Guerrilla on PS4 could be glorious! Please find a good home!

 

[MasterOfPastures]

Relic, convince daddy Sega to pick up HW.

Surprise ending: Blackbird Interactive buys the IP.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Aside from de Blob what other platformers do THQ have? I think Nick officially owns Tak, if Tak was up for grabs, give it to Disney and have Avalanche return to it.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

Platinum isn't a really good fit for the type of game Darksiders is. Not sure why people are jumping to that.

Inaba said he wanted it.

 

[jambo]

I really hope SEGA pick up Homeworld!

 

[Kyoufu]

I hope Sega goes nowhere near those IPs.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Drawn to Life and Lock's Quest are owned by THQ right? Warner or 5th Cell themselves should nab it, hell I think Warner will jump for them for that reason, already owning Scribblenauts.

 

[IHaveIce]

I buy Darksiders if no one else does

 

[VanWinkle]

Ew no, leave Platinum out of this. It's like Sony buying Polystation or some shit.

What Platinum game is Darksiders a rip-off of?

 

[Technosteve]

Sega plz. buy homeworld

 

[jdl]

homeworld is worth a lot more than what they're probably selling it for, too.

 

[scorpscarx]

I hope the Homeworld IP also includes digital distribution rights for the old games. I can't believe they haven't been rereleased yet.

Exactly, we have SS2, all we need now is Homeworld on GoG.

Definitely following this.

What happens if it doesn't get sold, anyone can make Homeworld 3? Maybe that's the way to go.

 

[DimmuBurgerKing]

Nintendo is reluctant to use most of their current IPs, much less Zelda clones. F-Zero am cry.

True. Starfox am cry, too. :<

 

[RobbieNick]

Platinum: Pick up Darksiders please.

SEGA: You BETTER get Homeworld and give it to Relic.

OMG Yes!! I'd love that!

I wonder how much De blob is going for. Such a great, overlooked series.

 

[big youth]

I've always had a soft spot for Destroy All Humans! even though the games weren't great. they had charm

 

[Aaron]

Doublefine should buy Alter Echo rights. Sequel should have an all ska soundtrack.

 

[Corto]

I Sega buys Homeworld I'll give them my left kidney.

 

[scorpscarx]

For the uninitiated: brilliant HW opening cinematic.

May this teach you to love the the ip.

 

[sangreal]

Drawn to Life and Lock's Quest are owned by THQ right? Warner or 5th Cell themselves should nab it, hell I think Warner will jump for them for that reason, already owning Scribblenauts.

I have no idea what is in this auction, but I do have a list of everything THQ owns (from Rubin's macbook to IP) and I don't see Lock's Quest. It's on a list of licenses though

 

[Tiktaalik]

I hope Sega/Relic wind up with Homeworld.

 

[dynamitejim]

I would love to see Avalanche Studios do a Destroy All Humans game. Kind of an even more campy/wacky Just Cause.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Inaba said he wanted it.

For cheap, so it's a matter of who would outbid Platinum for the IP considering the state it's in.

 

[John Harker]

I'd love more Summonor!

 

[Voice of Reason]

I'll buy Darksiders, give it to Platinum Games and make a Darksiders 3

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

For cheap, so it's a matter of who would outbid Platinum for the IP considering the state it's in.

I doubt anyone wants it but we shall see. I think it might hinge more on whether Inaba was serious or joking.

 

[Keslord]

Man, I hope that Red Faction finds a good home. I have some great memories of playing the first two with my dad.

 

[DocSeuss]

Darksiders and Red Faction are the only games worth a damn.

What is wrong with you?

Homeworld, Supreme Commander, and Impossible Creatures are worth more than Darksiders and Red Faction ever were.

 

[Seventy_X_Seven]

I know they're just selling IPs, but do we know what happens to the engines? I imagine having GeoMod 2.0 would be a huge help in figuring out how to go even further on the destruction. I fear whoever gets the Red Faction franchise will do "cheap" destruction like say in Battlefield where a few pre-determined things can get destroyed in always destroy in pretty much the same way.

 

[Grayman]

It'll be interesting to see how all of these split up. I never had a chance to play the Destroy All Humans games. Were they any good?

twenty billion copies of one of the destroy all humans games were given to gaffers. I think I enjoyed it for a few hours on my PS2.

 

[lamaroo]

Nintendo will buy

Spoiler

nothing.

 

[Boss Man]

Platinum: Pick up Darksiders please.

Hell yes.

Another option would be Sony, because SSM on a Darksiders game seems like a natural fit. The franchise has a lot of potential, I just hope whoever picks it up actually does something with it.

 

[KevinCow]

WB should buy Darksiders.

I don't get why everyone wants Platinum to get it. I can't imagine them doing it without completely changing the style and tone. If they wanted to do a game like Darksiders, they'd be better off just doing their own original thing.

 

[diamount]

Platinum isn't a really good fit for the type of game Darksiders is. Not sure why people are jumping to that.

Yep this Platinum wanking is wearing a bit thin.
