Penned by legendary comic book artist Joe Madureira (X-Men, Battle Chasers, The Ultimates), Darksiders is set in a Post-Apocalyptic demon-ravaged world where evil forces have prematurely brought about the end of the time. Originally sent to oversee the destruction of Earth, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been betrayed by their master, stripped of their powers and cast down to Earth. Players take on the role of WAR—the first of the Four Horsemen—as he embarks on a brutal quest of vengeance and revenge against the forces that betrayed him with the help of his phantom steed RUIN. Darksiders features open-world exploration, a deep combat system and a huge arsenal of modern and mythical weapons. |

Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood's setting of the American Civil War isn't particularly common for videogames. Perhaps the odd RTS game has focused on the period previously, but FPS titles set in the time of Abe Lincoln aren't exactly two-a-penny. There are a few other Spaghetti Western mimicking shooters (e.g. Red Dead Revolver and Gun, which are set a couple of decades after Bound in Blood) but they represent a niche gaming genre at best, which is perhaps a touch surprising when you consider how perfectly the gun-slinging action of a Western should fit the shooter game mould.

As kids, we spent most of our time arguing over who was better. Hulk Hogan or the Ultimate Warrior. That debate culminated at WrestleMania VI where, in front of a packed house, the Warrior pinned the immortal one to capture the WWE championship. Hardcore wrestling fans can now relive that moment, thanks in large part to THQ's Legends of WrestleMania, available for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. This nostalgic look back at the WWE's glory days features wrestlers from years past as well as a marvelous presentation that rekindles our love for sports entertainment. |
