Rumour: Darksiders II: Definitive Edition Will Dice with Death on PS4

Darksiders 2 on the ps4 would make me happy.
I know a lot of people aren't agreeing with me but I love all these remasters and remakes. (The more games the merrier, and I'm sure these remasters are only fill ups until the new titles release, and ofcourse there's also some money grabbing involved)

_{Nice try, spammer - get2sammyb}

I enjoyed the first game but never got around to the second. I might check it out down the road once I get a PS4.

hmmm preferred darksiders one, second one was was too cluttery with loads of different weapons an armour and the combat wasn't as good, preferred the first ones combat system and learning skills and the story isnt great

Surprised by this but I guess with THQ going under the new owners of the IP are looking to make as much money out of it as possible. Even so I wouldn't have thought they'd be willing to spend much time or money on optimising what is basically a dead franchise. I'm thinking this is going to be more of a port than a remaster.

@darkswabber i agree i never played the last of us until the remaster on ps4 and metro 2033 which is amazing aswell lookin forward to try this aswell

Is there a new rumor posted every Sunday?

Inc;ude the original and I might bite.

Got about half way through the original on the highest difficulty setting before I got stuck and never found the time to go back! Should probably go back to it at some point...

Didn't like this game at all. I don't understand why they've bothered, easy money I suppose.

Sorry, I own this on Wii U already. So unless they bring a Darksiders Collection that includes the first, I see no reason to spend another $40-60 on an old game.

Either a collection of the first two or a new one would be ok with me. Of course they choose neither of those routes and simply offer up the one game on every system that everyone's played.

This is actually one of the re-releases that I don't think is a terrible idea. Something like an Uncharted trilogy, while it would sell, is completely unnecessary, at least until Uncharted 4 has hit the market. Darksiders on the other hand has been away for a while and I don't think either game sold too spectacularly so as a way to gauge interest this is a good idea. From what I've read about it I'm not sure it's a series I could get into but I'd hope the re-release does well enough so fans can get a Darksiders 3.

@Gamer83
Ah man, it's a fantastic game- you'd probably love it. I can't imagine how anyone wouldn't. If you like Zelda with more focus on combat and RPG leveling up, it's a dream come true.

My issue is that it's the second and doesn't include the first. This game has already hit every platform under the sun (even Wii U)- a remake including both games would make so much more sense- and give people who played them a reason to double dip (everyone likes getting a collection of games on one disc).

If you haven't played this though I do recommend. Highly.

@JaxonH

For the right price I'd check it out. The rumor suggests $40 which would seem right, wouldn't go higher though.

If the starting price is really going to be $40 it will drop around $30 on Amazon in no time.

yawn a remake of a so-so sequel of a good original game.

Nordic is just doing this to milk darksiders. They will never make a darksiders 3, cause they dont have the money. I read in an interview that they have no plans on actually making another darksiders. They bought the ip just to milk it.

As far as me and a few of my friends are concerned this is great news! I do think it would make more sense to remaster both the original and Darksiders 2 so I don't understand why skip the first game. I guess the team behind the remaster had to decide which game to port and given that Darksiders 2 is more up to date in terms of graphics it was easier to bring that one across.

I never finished Darksiders 2 so I'll definitely be picking it up day one. One of my friends on XBOX has only just tried said game after I kept telling him to pick it up, given he's a massive fan of Zelda. He never listened and would have never played it, but thanks to games with gold on XBOX Live he finally got a chance to try it last month and he actually loves it.

I hope it does well on the PS4 as the mind behind the Darksiders series said that he would love to make a Darksiders 3. I can't wait !!!

For anyone that hasn't played it and enjoys games such as Borderlands, GoW, Heavenly Sword. Go for it.

I'm not playing PS3 games, I bought a PS4 to play PS4 games not PS3 games start making Darksiders 3 for the PS4

@Gamer83 why would an Uncharted trilogy release make less sense than this? This is a game that has already been released on every platform known to man, more recently than the last Uncharted, AND sold badly in the process so likely will again.

Whereas it's a widely publicised fact that a significant number of people this gen switched from Xbox to Playstation, and as such won't have played an Uncharted game before, so a re release prior to the launch of 4 would make perfect sense, so that those guys can get up to speed, and ND can make buckets of money in the process!
