1080p @ 30fps is fine but damn, can I at least get a 720p @ 60fps option on Wii U? Either way I have the first game on PC and the second on Wii U. No need to double dip over here. Now, if a certain company can get me Mass Effect one and two on Wii U, I'm sold!

huh, i bought the first darksiders and darksiders 2 deathinitive edition on steam a few months ago, now they remaster the first one :l
I'd buy it if i get a discount or something, the first one has bugs and the performance is spotty at times so i'd want this if it's more optimized and if it fixes some bugs. The darksiders games are nice and I'd recommend you to get this if you haven't played the first one yet. Still waiting eagerly for a 3rd game, hopefully if this sells well they might do it :D

Lol before I went to Fire TV I used to play Darksiders via OnLive on my OUYA. I believe the Gamefly streaming app also offers the game. Now that I have a Gaming PC and Fire TV. The Fire TV handles my Android gaming needs and the Gaming PC handles everything else not available on Wii U.

I really hope that they'll give out this for free to current Darksiders owners on Steam, just like Bethseda will do with Skyrim Remastered.

No way I'm going to buy this again.

I agree. They are asking too much for Darksiders II remaster in my opinion. These should be an "upgrade" (at a minimal price) for those of us that already own the original release.

I just hope the pc version doesn't suck as bad as it did the last time. The original port was so poorly programmed it was unforgivable. It would run fine in most areas, then for no reason you'd hit an area that was so cpu bound it pretty much required an i5/i7 to hit 60 fps (which isn't a huge deal now, but back then, it was insane).

I remember that the first Darksiders was compared to Zelda (and that many people liked it), but watching videos of that game (and Darksiders 2) makes me go meh. The world looks vast but empty and the combat is more like a modern hack'n slay.

I haven't played it in ages, but from what I remember, it sorta felt God of War-ish in the beginning, then after a couple of hours it started to become a lot like Ocarina, just in a much more hellish setting (thought with a heavier emphasis on killing).

I don't really get why this is being released for the Wii U because barely anyone's going to buy it anyway.
