MrOde very good point! I'd pay extra for express overnight shipping.
HaseoVII SAME regarding FF7Rebirth (best believe I preordered Revelation though
)
I am such a huge fan of Nexus Hub - no one else in SA imports the niche titles - I used to need to get my stuff from Amazon Japan/US

I'm not looking to start a bad thread about this, I was really just curious because I misclicked the tab on the left and stumbled upon the poll (I'd never clicked it before).
I am fiercely brand loyal to Nexus Hub and I don't care too much about not getting a game day-1. I know other names like BT and Koodoo ship earlier so you get it on release, but I'd never be "that" excited that I must play day-1, life happens
On the other hand, paying an extra R150 every time you order a commercially available title does add up, and I would not blame the average consumer for trying to save some money.
I know I'd feel less off about it if there was a price match, and free delivery at a certain threshold.

also "Naturally there will be a large-scale project based on Darksiders"

Still don't know why they skipped the first one
Likewise - much as I love the series I'm confused as to why the didn't bother to include the first. Especially given the ending of the 1st game is pretty much the ending of the 2nd so it's hard to separate.
I'm not sure what code they used for the remaster but both the games got decent, if unspectacular, PC ports so I'm surprised they haven't done both. If this launches at a cheap price point I'll grab it.

You and me both dude! It would've been a definite buy for me! Now I'm in 2 minds to get this. I love the darksider games, probably my fav hack and slash games, but to play just 2 again...I don't know, maybe
One play through was enough for me on both games, so not worried.
Enjoyed the first one more though!
Just bogels the mind, why they did not remaster both games?
They did it with GOW3 was well. Why did they not add Ascension?
& I hear they will remaster the Batman games, except the third one
WTH!
So reports coming in from Gaf users that this is another terrible port and runs worse than the previous gen versions.
Slow down and frame rate drops
Lots of screen tearing especially in the open world sections
Missing textures and texture pops
People are busy streaming now and you can clearly see screen tearing all over the place.
Hopefully they have a patch in the works.

Not many big sites reviewing the game but those that have mention the issues but not to the extent GAF users are -

Now, when is Darksiders 3 coming again?
Enjoying it on what must be my third time round but I can agree with the summary . It's definitely not an essential remaster but certainly a big step above a basic port like the Dishonored DE. I'd strongly recommend it to people who've never played the franchise or fans of the series looking to replay it in a much less glitchy and inconsistent state compared to the original release.
It's a pity this review and so many others show the same lack of effort - Their video content is from maybe the frirst 2-3 hours of a 30 hour game and the reviewer even failed to notice the game is a (mostly) locked 30FPS, not a 60FPS title.

Its a remaster or whatever, so 2 min review is good enough. Is what they think.
& yeah, this is a must play for those that have not
@Scottie - pretty consistent with what I've found so far. The good news is almost all the performance issues are limited to the open world section of the opening act and screen tearing tends to happen in passageways transitioning between the open world and dungeon interiors. hopefully something that can be improved with some patching. Once into the 2nd act and after, it seems to maintain a solid v-synced 30FPS.
On the technical side, I think Gunfire Games started with the most broken parts of the game and worked back. The section on Earth in Act 3 was possibly the smoothest running part of the whole game (compared to poor performance and the chance to hardlock the console on last-gen) and likewise, the DLC "The Abyssal Forge" ran perfectly. Only DLC I need to check is "The Demon Lord Belial" which was so broken on PC and last-gen consoles I only ever finished it once and then it wrecked my save file.
Only disappointment so far is that the DLC campaigns or not directly accessible from the campaign (so integrated may not be the right word), rather they unlock at later parts of the story (when you've unlocked the appropriate skill) and are properly scaled for that part of the game.

"Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition was just the start. Since we acquired the franchise we were looking for options for doing a DS3. The remaster was just a way to get some spotlight on the franchise again, reactivate the community and have a better starting position for DS3."
