Great combination of different types of gameplay slapped into an awesome character and decent story line.
As for actual gameplay - I have read reviews that the game steals ideas from other games. Overall...I have to agree with this. It has temples (legend of Zelda), Kill sequences (God of War), Entrapped rooms for defeating enemies (Devil May Cry) and a portal gun....(Portal, duh). Although other reviews have used this as a negative, I like to use it as a positive. It uses all these concepts with style. It struggles to actually grasp its own identity, but with a sequel I think they could get it right.
Graphics - 9
The graphics are fresh and unprecedented in my opinion. Although it has touches of other games, it makes its own identity creatively. The sounds are just like any other game though.
Value - 9
This game uses previous concepts to form a great game. It is definitely worth a playthrough, if not two or three. The character, War, is a Badass character and I'm sure Darksiders players will enjoy the game just to watch War in action. Can't wait for the sequel :)
Tilt - 8.5
8.5 on Tuneseeker's scale out of 10.
