Darksiders 2 was announced for PS3/x306 back in July, and it's quite possible that THQ will be revealing more at E3 2011. So, who's hyped? I know that I certainly am!
For anyone who doesn't know what Darksiders was, It's an Adventure/Dungeon crawler styled game that has a Legend of Zelda feel to it, yet with God of War controls. This is no reason to be turned off by such an excellent title, mind you. Like God of War, it featured a system in which you would gather points to level up your moves, making them much more devastatingly powerful and offering new tactics. Dungeoning was considerably the same as in the Legend of Zelda, you're required to acquire keys, discover new items/abilities to advance your way through a dungeon and even gain access to newer ones. Although generic in a sense, I still got the best Legend of Zelda game that I had seen in a while.
{SPOILER: READ IF YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE FIRST GAME]
So, opinions, thoughts, suggestion, hopes? Just share them.

As for the story, the previous game ended with War agreeing to rage war against the Council for their betrayal. Upon knowing this, the final cut-scene showed his three other brothers/sisters Pestilence, Famine, and Death entering the atmosphere. Their role will most likely be in assisting War against the Council, or even to possibly be opposed against him. I'd actually like to see a little family trouble in my case. Having them as a boss battle would be interesting.
