Those of you that have listened to Wonderpod Video game podcast year end special last year will remember that I mentioned Darksiders as one of my top games for the entire year. And rightfully so in my opinion. The original combined dungeons and puzzle solving levels in the likes of Zelda along with the combat , button smashing and real time  events of  modern brawlers. It was a sleeper hit that many reviewers  gave very high review scores for that I totally agree with. I personally loved  both the art style and characters in the game. It never got the attention that I believed it deserved, but that may change as the official sequel has now been both announced and a trailer for it is now all over the web. The game takes place at the same time that the original game occurred, only form the perspective of one of the other 4 Horsemen, namely death. In a way this is disappointing because the final moments of the original Darksiders game hinted at  a 4 player co-op sequel, but that might come along some time in the future.  With THQ doing nothing but the publishing for this title and the last games quality being high, I cant help but want to learn more. For now all we have to go by is the announcement trailer, and one excited PatMan waiting for it to come out!
