It uses WMV movies, seems to have one for each "scene" as it calls them plus a few usual logos and the intro movie, 63 files all in all.

EDIT: Largest file is "streams.opc" at 800 MB which could be sound data and then there's a number of cutscene files following which I guess is all the assets for the in-game cinematics.

If you like the Zelda games, you'll gonna like Darksiders. It's a pretty solid Zelda rip-off.

Yes, it's just like zelda. Except it has no dialogue, no NPC to talk to, no towns, no huge world to explore, no fun goofy side quest, oh yeah, and this game is linear.

Oh wait. This game is NOTHING like zelda.

Sorry I reworded it. Very Happy

But, this game isn't like zelda, I would compare this more to God Of War. Which, I'm not saying this game, or God of war are bad games...ok

I'm just not a big fan of Linear gameplay, and 1 button combos.

Hell zelda has at least two attack buttons Neutral

You're right, there absolutely no gameplay in DS that's just like the same as in Zelda... Excuse me, Princess!

This thing is huge, I'll wait for a rip. Also, it's not Zelda, it's not God of War, the whole game rips everyone (check the Yahtzee review) it's all of them! It even has a fucking Portal gun.

You say it's a zelda rip off, yet it's not. The game mechanics it self a God of War clone, sure the level up system, invetory, and "abilities" is a zelda rip off.

But that's it, the core gameplay is not zelda at all. Like I said, no towns, no world to explore, nothing that you would associate with zelda in one bit.

Oh sure, the use of abilities (you've first have to earn at some parts of the game to progress further) to get to new areas (which makes every zelda game somwhat linear too. No bombs, no progress / no hook, no progress. You get what I mean eh?), hidden chest hunting, the Dungeon gamplay which are clustered with riddles to get by is nothing like Zelda. That's God of War. In your logic, Zelda ripped off God of War then Rolling Eyes
But go on. At least your failure is sweeten up the time I've to wait untill DS is finished DLing. Cool Face

(Btw, the Zelda games ripped off many features from other games. In case you didn't know Rolling Eyes )

It's a strategic move; the smallest WD disk (160GB) possible and a damn good burner. Also, Maxtor is made by satan.

The option files are binary. I was on the hunt for some mouse tweaks. No can do.

On XP:

Options and controls:
c:\Profiles\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Darksiders\

Savegames:
c:\Profiles\<username>\My Documents\My Games\Darksiders\

// Edit

"Documents And Settings" instead of "Profiles" for derp XP installs Razz

Id be glad to know how to even use anything other than a xbox controller.
Mouse does nothing. No keys does anything.
I can move around with my standard gamepad.. but the view is locked straight up.

It probably defaults to gamepad if one is detected, disabling it or disconnecting it might be required.
(Unsure what is supported aside from the X360 native one.)

Well technically this port is as straight as it comes, there's zero tweakage and improvements. I know it sounds stupid and simplistic, but it seems like they put teh Xbox version through a fucked up converter and got a PC version.
Atleast it runs decent enough and plays good enough with an Xbox gamepad. Hopefully the game itself is interesting. Someone should play this thing already and write up a mini-review. I don't want to waste my precious Nehrim time on this unless I really have to.
