Just because we’ve entered a new decade doesn’t mean we’re so eager to start things anew. The success of Modern Warfare, Grand Theft Auto and Halo echo in countless other wannabes and it’s a story gamers have had to groan through time and time again. 2010 will probably play no differently, and with God of War‘s echoing hype standing atop a thundering peak, we’ll probably see ripples of its hype along the way. Darksiders, THQ’s apocalyptic adventure is not very original. It plays like God of War, thinks like Zelda and looks exactly like World of Warcraft. It’s also one of the most fun games I’ve played this year.
