Darksiders II for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

I was a huge fan of the original Darksiders and highly anticipated this game. I decided to rent over buying though, as other than a 2nd play through on th hardest setting, the game had very little replay value, and so does this one. But that aside, the game is great. It's a lot of fun, the difficulty scales as you continue on so if you run through avoiding enemies you'll be punished, the upgrade system and loot system makes the game deeper than before. The dungeons are cleverly designed, and boss battles are amazing. Besides a few rare technical problems like framerate slow downs (rare) and freezing (only happened once), the game is great. The story can be hard to follow if you did not play the first, but that game is great also. I highly recommend the entire series to fans of action games. It's a mix of God of War and Zelda, those words enough should seal the deal for you.
