Sounds good to me, I like sound of the mixture of Zelda and GoW gameplay.

For me IGN AU doesn't count, I don't like their reviews, besides I don't know if they are with or against their game qualification system :S

I just read the review, it seems like a game to pass the time, I may get it though.

For me it's a shame that they're copying Zelda and God of War in almost every way.... and even Portal! But whatever, they game sounds like it will be really awesome! The guy said they used the elements very well, so I'm good. Can't wait to finally play it. :D

Almost every modern game borrows elements of it's gameplay from previous titles, Darksiders' borrowing is just a little more obvious. This'll be a special treat for those of us Xbox 360 owners that haven't owned an N64 or Gamecube or a PS2.

See, now I thought this game was originally suppose to be a RPG/Adventure type game, and now it appears like they've went with the straight up "adventure" only route. How disappointing.

Weird, because I never thought this game would have any RPG elements at all, I read it's an adventure game from when it was 1st announced.

I was on the fence with this game, but after watching some videos and reviews I'll be buying it day one. I'll have some gift credit from Walmart anyway. It will make a nice duo with Bayonetta.

It looks like fun. As far as them obviously copying other games, who gives a crap if it's fun?

Theres a difference between copying something and being inspired by something.

Considering the article says you get a portal gun that creates doors with orange and blue outlines, I'm gonna go ahead and say that's pretty outright copying when they didn't even change the colors from the doors in Portal :S

About 15-20 hours if you run straight throught he story but if you do everything it will extend to about, maybe 25-30 hours or more.

IGN had a little video playthru of like 20 minutes of the game. I thought it looked decent enough. If it gets good reviews, I'll give it a rent. Doesn't look like a purchase to me.
