In the slaughter that ensued, the demonic forces defeated the heavenly hosts and laid claim to the Earth. Brought before the sacred Charred Council, War is indicted for his crimes and stripped of his powers. Dishonored and facing his own death, War is given the opportunity to return to Earth to search for the truth and punish those responsible.

preft (2010-09-22)

on torrentbytes they say you need an xbox360 controller to play the PC version. can any1 confirm this?

xtracrossxx (2010-09-22)

going to wait for someones rip!:)

 Knaster (2010-09-22)

preft no you dont need 360 controller, keyboard and mouse are just fine

Brahma_Vishnu (2010-09-23)

Sadly another Xbox crap conversion....Only controller can be used it seems :(
Even at start it says "press start", and to top if of you can turn on vibration and see the xbox controls.
Other than that my char just stands there turning 360.
You can't set up keyboard anywhere?

Brahma_Vishnu (2010-09-23)

sigh.....if you have some other form of controller in your PC...UNPLUG IT :)
My old Gravis Gamepad Pro was the culprit.

Brahma_Vishnu (2010-09-23)

Sigh.....Just unplug your old controller....like my Gravis Gamepad Pro.....

Kooh (2010-09-23)

@Brahma_Vishnu
Tried this ? ->

Kooh (2010-09-23)

You probably need "Xbox360 controller emulator for PC". Google this!

Kooh (2010-09-23)

Oops sorry i lagged and i really needed to post a 3rd time to say i double posted. Damn i feel retarded >

Vvornth (2010-09-23)

I have two problems or what it is. :P
When the installer.exe is done installing, at the end I get a message "Installer.exe has stopped working".
I ignored it and continued by putting the crack in the main install folder. When I start the game THQ movie and Vigil Games movie appears. After that it is just black!
I have waited like 5 min (I think that is long enough) and nothing.
Why is it like this?

ogarous (2010-09-23)

install & crack works fine on vista. However, the y axis is stuck w my logitech rumblepad 2. Tried emulating 360 controller but still same problem. No other device plugged in.

Cpthowdy420 (2010-09-24)

installer keeps wanting to install DX and C++, can not cancel install of them

Cpthowdy420 (2010-09-24)

ok got it to work, alls i did was exit out of the skidrow installer, copy n past the stuff from the crack folder to the install folder n replaced the files n merged the media and video files, clicked on the game exe n it worked

Gloogloos (2010-09-24)

i cant get the vids to work, not sure why, ive tried a bunch o shit

Gloogloos (2010-09-24)

i tried reinstalling and at about 98% it says "the wrong volume is in the drive. please insert volume Disk1 into drive E:" so i do and then it tries to install DX and C++ repeatedly until i just have to close it and then when i start the game, no cinematics and the game is only about 10gs large, i would think that it would be around 15 as the DL is 13.6, any help with this

dothackjhe (2010-09-24)

How is this different from the one released on the 5th of January 2010 of the same title?

xtremflow (2010-09-24)

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKK 9k/s what is the seeders prob

Gloogloos (2010-09-24)

i cant get any cinematics in the game it just skips or crashes when in assuming theyre supposed to be playing

jef2907 (2010-09-24)

When I play the game, it shows dark screen over the surrounding. Help!

Vallhael (2010-09-24)

Pls..can anyone tell me what the hell I gotta click when I am in DVD 1 Explorer-.- Pls write this when u post torret with a Setup, an Installer, and an Install file in it. *Slightly* Confusing...

lovemylife (2010-09-24)

I'll just write some solutions to problems I've encountered while installing this torrent:
1. THE INSTALLER ASKS FOR DISC 2:
Just copy and paste all of the content of the DVD-2-Folder (except for the SKIDROW-Folder) to the DVD-1-Folder.
2. THE INSTALLER LOOPS THE C++ AND DIRECT-X-INSTALLERS:
I just exited the installer of Skidrow (by pressing the red X in the top right) and copied the content of the SKIDROW-folder (located in the DVD-2-folder) to my installing location of Darksiders.
In this case: Computer>C:>Program Files>Darksiders.
I replaced the files and merged the media stuff. After that I could start the game normally (the loop disappeared after restart).
I hoped this helps some people.

Gloogloos (2010-09-25)

ima try lovemylife's fix

seiko665 (2010-09-25)

SEED! PLS!

Gloogloos (2010-09-25)

ight so the game installed and runs and shit, but there are still no cinematics

laitblade (2010-09-25)

k heres what u do:
1.extract the iso files with winrar
2.mount dvd 1 with deamon tools
3.it should autorun istaller.exe if not go to computer and run it your self
4.change install path and languidge IF U PREFERE
5.click install
6.wen it asks for dvd 2 mount dvd 2 with deamon tools IN THE SAME DRIVE meaning if u mount dvd1 in L u got to mount dvd 2 in L
7. wen it asks to install direct x and c++ DO IT its the lastest game so its the latest version so dont worrie about versions
8.dont know if its normal but after c++ my installer crashed
9.go to dvd 2 and copy all content from the skidrow folder to your darksiders folder (default c:/programfiles/darksiders)
10.run darksidersPC.exe
it should work fine
make shure that wen u copy all the content from the skidrow folder u keep pressing yes all the time

laitblade (2010-09-25)

@ Gloogloos i think u forgot to put the media folder in your darksiders folder if not then i got no idea why u get no cinematics try reinstalling by folowing my instructions from my previous post

darkpat (2010-09-25)

I got a problem with the resolution (pre setted) of the game. The video resolution of the game is set to something my graphic card can`t handle. So i got a black screen and the message "input not supported"
In the nfo is written that if you got this problem you have to delete a folder in c/name/dokuments n settings/app data/ i dont know now, BUT i searched there and there is no folder to delete.
I have had that prob before and normaly you can find a cfg. file or something to change the start resolution of the game but not in this case.
If anyone knows where the file is to change the start video resolution, please answer me, i cant get the game to start without changing that.
I am sure that more people got that prob, so if anyone can help me out that would be great.
Sorry for my bad english, so long
Pat...

laitblade (2010-09-25)

@ darkpat i found the options file wich i think might be the place were u change the resolution for me its in
c/users/(my name)/appdata/local/darksiders
but wen i open it with notepad i get this very short line of coding and u cant actualy change te resolution in it but maybe u wil find something on google ore somewon else knows what to do

punisher2012 (2010-09-25)

come on ppl seed plz!!!

Gloogloos (2010-09-25)

i think im missing .dlls, can some post what dlls they have in their directory so i can see what i need

exit55 (2010-09-25)

SOLUTION FOR BLACKSCREEN!!!111one
It's not a problem with the games preset resolution
Its just a bug in the video
go to:
c:/ darksiders / media / videos
delete/rename the AMD logo video to something other than amd_logo_blahblahblah
I renamed it to "AMD"

darkpat (2010-09-25)

No sorry, its not a bug in the amd Vid. i still get the message "input not supportet" I have had this often before and YOU MUST change the resolution Off game, anywhere change it, BUT WHERE...

Luzzu (2010-09-26)

My save just randomly disappeared. How sad. Good torrent in every other way though, fast considering ratio, will seed.

Gloogloos (2010-09-26)

ive tried almost everything, i cant think of any other solution to getttin the cinematics, i had to download 2 .dlls to get the menu intro, i still have no AMD THQ or VIGIL intro (I cud care less about those) or the cutscenes (DO WANT!)

laitblade (2010-09-26)

@Googloos do u have to proper codecs?

download the full pack and in the top choose lots of stuf without player
@darkpat i have that problem some times to i just shut off my screen and put it back on again other then that i got no solution for u yet
maybe somewon can help these people i dont know much about this all i can do is give some basic solutions that MIGHT help

dante999 (2010-09-26)

good thanks

Gloogloos (2010-09-26)

@laitblade, thanks but that didnt do anything, im using VLC and it recognizes the files, just them game only plays 2 of them and there at the menu, it wont do logos or cutscenes, also if i watch the videos from the darksiders video directory, there is no dialogue, only ambience and music, its odd

svartvalheim (2010-09-26)

after hours got this crappy installer to work, this is without a doubt the worst installer ever.
still thnx for the game.

Kreem2k (2010-09-26)

Hi.
The game looks awesome and i just installed it.
I've got one major problem tho.. When i ran the game all cinematics and stuff worked fine, but when i started playing everything was foggy and gray, except a small radius around the char.
Please help!

Amadeth (2010-09-26)

Gloogloos, try this -->>

tazbaby (2010-09-26)

ok all you do if you have a black screen is go to where you installd it go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Darksiders\media\videos del all videos with logo in its name are rename them and then start the game then it will work

Luzzu (2010-09-26)

K guys, I lost my save for the third time now, don't bother with this one, saves randomly get deleted.

Isbit (2010-09-26)

(to Luzzu) dont activate steam when you go in the game and your save is there. when steam is activated you loose the saves.

mdarco (2010-09-26)

Hey guys, im having a problem with the camera view. When i start the game, the camera is locked looking to the sky, i can only see a part of the character and there's no way i can move it. Anyone knows how to fix it?
Tks

Dawnsabre (2010-09-27)

@Gloogloos: I have the same problem. I tried updating my Media Player like Amadeth's link suggested, but it didn't work.
This problem is real man, thougt somewhat rare it seems.
The guy in the link seemed to have a legit copy too, witch worries me...
Any solution is very welcome. (I'm not much of a tech head.)

Crazedanimal (2010-09-27)

Has anyone else been having problems getting past the first Double shadow geyser? Ive fallen into the lava about 50 times. Its starting to get annoying.

Sayaa (2010-09-27)

When i start the game with the darksiderspc.exe everytime i get this error:
DarksidersPC has encountered a problem and needs to close. we are sorry for the inconvenience
Please help!
Thx

Crazedanimal (2010-09-27)

Stuck at Choking Grounds Access Cave. I drop like a stone while trying to glide over the double Shadow geyser.

franicat (2010-09-27)

Even though my system is more than capable (Cored 2 Duo 2.3 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 8800 GTS, Win 7) the game runs kinda choppy with messed up audio. Plus, my GPU starts to heat up like crazy. Anyone else having these problems?

reghin78 (2010-09-27)

Hey, could you help me out?
The game keeps crashing at "Scalding Gallow" after a quick chat with some blue headed fellow guarding "something more terrible than I have yet seen" (something like that anyway).
After scene_12.

reghin78 (2010-09-27)

Update for my problem: it crashes right after the cutscene with the Phantom General, when the fight is supposed to begin.
Come on, anybody?

nahuelcut (2010-09-27)

flykbng (2010-09-27)

can anybody explain how he got this game installed because i did my best but no way, help

Damplastbil (2010-09-27)

The thing is, when you have Steam running and start darksiders, your save just goes away while Steam is running, turn it off and voilá! it's back.

spawn40 (2010-09-28)

...when i try to start the setup...it says ''F:\Setup.exe is not a valid win32 application" ... can anyone help me?

mgcg88 (2010-09-28)

@spawn40
try installing that windows visual c++ shit,google it you should find it easily
i hope it helps

mgcg88 (2010-09-28)

TPB's game troubleshooting -
1- Game won't open?
r: install that microsoft visual c++ shit and shall run fine.
2-Intros won't play?
r: install windows media player 11.
3-Errors while installing the game?
r: try updating your iso
follow the instructions inside the installer fix folder and you should be able to install it fine.

word304 (2010-09-28)

I'm having controller problems with
using a Logitech Dual Action controller + using Xbox360 emulator.
(Sorry for length of post since fair amount is specific to my setup. Others seem to be having similar problems, so I thought it might help)
I managed to get my buttons mapped & working properly (done either through remapping the buttons with Logitech Game Profiler or by editing the values in x360ce.ini/.exe - not both simultaneously of course).
What I can't get working properly (no matter what I try) is the right Thumbstick Y-axis (which controls the camera view in game).
I'm constantly stuck with a top-down view of the characters head and can't change it. It will circle around the character when pressing Left/Right (thus assuming the thumbstick X-axis works properly), but thumpstick Up/Down does nothing and I have no idea what to change it to.
It seems Darksiders stores it's own controller info automatically in a file called "controls.dcon" which is found in the hidden user directory (Windows Vista 32 bit):
-
I have no idea what (if any) program can properly open this file for editing - I've tried Notepad, MS WORD, an NFO viewer program, web-browsers, even PAINT - all unusable.
ANY HELP from here getting it to work would be appreciated.
Maybe it's as simple as changing/editing the Right Thumbstick axis value to something else? either by changing value using x360ce.exe or by manually editing x360ce.ini file
For my Logitech Dual Action controller, ALL other games work properly with the Right Thumbstick configurations:
xboxce.exe:
Stick Axis X - Axis 3
Stick Axis Y - IAxis 6
xboxce.ini:
Right Analog X=3
Right Analog Y=-6
Thanks in advance for any/all help!
(Especially sorry if this ends up as a double-post - tpb comments does it to me sometimes).

word304 (2010-09-28)

Oh!
Installation worked perfectly for me and game appears to execute & run smoothly. (other than controller problem)
Using: Windows Vista 32bit Home Edition.
Good upload! Thanks a lot Stun!
You da man! Major props!

word304 (2010-09-28)

SOLVED MY PROBLEM WITH Y-Axis on Right Thumbstick!!!

I already had a 360 emulator config'd properly.
Turns out ALL that was needed was to update the C++ Redistributable package (found through link in download section).
Worked for me!
I'm just spreading the word - someone else helped me find the solution.
Thanks to: PSPNOOB06

sairoxi (2010-09-28)

I have no fucking idea what to do here.. So the problem is the installer is bugging and when i try to launch the game it just goes black and "not responding" i know it's because of installer and now i got the fix for it.. except i have no fucking clue how to use it.. everything is in clear english and still i can't replace files in iso and when i try to mount the fix it says "You don't have required files or permission to do that" So i would be very happy if someone could write me down step by step how to do it.. getting really frustrated here since i've been trying to work this out for 2 goddamn days.

laitblade (2010-09-28)

@sairoxy ure retarded for not reading the other comments lol if u get black screen before u get to main menu u got to rename the AMD movie to like: bla

sairoxi (2010-09-28)

reghin78 (2010-09-28)

Game crashes after cutscene with the guy with the axe called phantom general... How do I fix this?

sairoxi (2010-09-28)

all right so i've done everything.. fixed installer, renamed/removed logo videos, updated game, downloaded new codecs, updated windows, tried in 640xblabla and still when i open the game it just freezes to black screen and says "Darksiders window is not responding" any aces left in the sleeve?

mmsandi (2010-09-29)

is this 'finishing installation suppose to take this long?!

Artimese (2010-09-29)

reghin78, i have the SAME problem!! I have no idea how to fix it, right after the cutscene with the dude with the axe (named phantom general) crashes right after that, saying the memory cannot be written, does ANYONE know how to fix this?
core 2 duo 2.80ghz 1GB ram 8800gt overclocked.

Artimese (2010-09-29)

Honestly does anyone know why the game crashes after the cut scene with the phantom general?

word304 (2010-09-29)

No installer probs for me - STEAMclient already installed and active in background when installer was used.
Heres POSSIBLE fix for installer problems - Anything installed/executed needs to be "Run as administrator"
1, Download + install Valve's official STEAM client - it's free. Can get it at store()steampowered()com
2, Create a free STEAM account - req valid email.
3, Run the client, log into ur accont, and leave it running in background
4, Follow install instructions as listed in description.
5, Terminate client (but do NOT uninstall) and run DarksidersPC exe file from the game dir. Game should run now.
Please post if this works for you or not since I can't try it myself.

word304 (2010-09-29)

@sairoxi
Assuming u have VISTA, your problem might be a needed windows service that's disabled or not active.
You might want to try this: DL + install a prog called 'Vista Services Optimizer' (google it) - click auto tuneup, select restore default Windws config (save current settings before if u want to)
Reboot your comp then try it again and see if it fixed your problems.
If default service settings slow windows down, loading saved settings (with a reboot) or using a previous System Restore point will void changing settings to default.

febriano (2010-09-29)

works amazing with windows 7 64bit sys , the game looks truly beautiful its worth waiting for this huge download the problem is i find the mouse so sensetive had a few troubles with the installer closing the direct x some sort of endless loop else the torrent is 1000% GENUINE

noob_boss (2010-09-30)

general_snuggles (2010-10-01)

Game looks awesome - I downloaded the torrent, but when I go to changing the controlls, all it shows me is the x-box control, and when I play the camera just points at the ground and spins.
Perhaps this is to show you what hell is really like....

piromandule (2010-10-01)

Please help! I hit the desktop icon and then this happens:
D:\PC GAMES\Darksiders\Darksiders.exe
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.Reinstalling the application may fix this problem
Installed c++(2005,2008,2010 tried). Dont know what to do. Is it maybe the P4 2.4, 7600GS that i have?

@general_snuggles
On of my prev comments (top of comment page #6) will solve your problem.
I can see how it could easily be overlooked and that I could have phrased better. So...
Players with the "problem with right Thumbstick Y-axis", which is the same thing as
>game not recognizing pressing up/down on the right thumbstick of controllers
>in-game camera view is not panning up or down
>game only rotates while looking at characters head.
Here's how to FIX it, you need 2 things:
a)most recent xbox360 emulator
b)updated C++ redistributable package.
DL links to both are at:

word304 (2010-10-02)

(cont'd from prev comment)
A few add'l notes:
** Click on "downloads" at top of page for link to emulator.
** Once downloaded, the emulator MUST be run from the game's install directory.
** Some game profiler programs must be shut down before running the game for certain controllers to work. I had to turn off Logitech Game Profiler to get my Logitech Dual Action controller to work.

word304 (2010-10-02)

@caelas19
Did you copy the content from the crack folder to your game directory?
(I don't think you did since doing so makes it where it doesn't ask for a validation code).

word304 (2010-10-02)

@piromandule
Assuming you used the Skidrow installer + properly the copied content from crack folder to game directory, it should be easy to fix your problem -> your shortcut is referencing the wrong exe file.
>Delete your current desktop shortcut
>Explore to game directory and find file DarksidersPC.exe (note the spelling difference from Darksiders.exe). This is the proper file to run the game.
>To avoid opening game directory every time, right click DarksidersPC.exe + select "Send To" then select "Desktop" which will create a new shortcut for you. (P.S. You can rename the shortcut to whatever u want.)
If that doesn't work, instead of D:/PC GAMES/....
Try moving everything to the game's default install directory which is C:\Program Files\Darksiders\ then try to run the game.
Good luck!

RD90 (2010-10-02)

i'm having a problem here... i mounted the image and installed it... i went to the folder but there's no exe file to run the game from... i tried the installer in th folder itself but it gives me an error saying that i do not have sufficient privileges to install and to log on as an administrator... can someone help? (i am already the administrator on the PC so don't bother with that)

word304 (2010-10-02)

@RD90
Explore mounted image > open Skidrow folder > copy content to game folder.

word304 (2010-10-02)

@RD90
Wait a sec, your comment is confusing as hell.
"mounted the image and installed it" - so you used the skidrow installer then?
"i went to the folder but there's no exe file to run the game from..." - specify which folder you're talking about.
"i tried the installer in th folder itself" - once again specify! DVD folder in mounted iso? Game default install directory? Some other folder? What?
Did you, like the instructions said to, copy content from Skidrow folder (on iso #2) to the game directory?

Dr-nidO (2010-10-02)

my game crashes at the griever boss..
tried to reinstall... doesnt work
tried the fix from skidrow.... doesnt work
tried the installer fix.... doesnt work
the new installer doesnt even install the game it resets before even 1% installation....
Please tell me some body is working on a fix that actually fixes the griever crash...
any suggestions apart from the above tried ones are welcome

jmandryk (2010-10-03)

I've tried to play through twice... both twice just after fighting the Irish Hammer Dude, before the griever boss. i've lost the ability to use the crossblade.. it''s properly selected and worked fine fighting the angels, now it just makes a clicking noise when you try to switch from the horn... you can go a bit farther but eventually you need it to blow some pillar bombs up and your game is over..

ezio325 (2010-10-03)

Umm is this game realy good how it looks because its kind of like wolfenstein 2 or something like that with mystick weapons and all

general_snuggles (2010-10-03)

hey word - I tried the link to that site and downloaded both the redistributed c++ and the x-box control emulator, but still no dice. Am I stupid? HELP!!! :)
(If you help me out I'll bake you some cookies)

dr.purple (2010-10-03)

Proper Crack Needed
The game crashed at the Griever
I used the new Installer - would stop after completing 1 % .
Used the new crack and the old crack - non can stop the crash
updated the game - didn't worked either
Used phoenix to unpack the game contents - it did the job but again crashed at the griever
I was thinking MAY BE the problem isn't with the installer but with the SKIDROW CRACK...........???
Waiting desperately for a solution

dr.purple (2010-10-03)

i tried everything

* the new installer
* the new crack
* phoenix
nothing works
game always crashes at the griever
may be the problem is with the SKIDROW CRACK
Waiting for a solution

word304 (2010-10-03)

general_snuggles
Only other suggestion I can come up with is to put this dll file in install directory and see if it works:

Note: this contains 3 different versions of the same dll file. Don't bother trying the WIDECHAR version unless you use asian characters font in Windows.
"Blocker" version blocks the game from seeing any controller input except from the emulator.
"Spoofer" version makes any controller have the name "XBOX 360 Controller for Windows" -some games don't work otherwise.
Just as confirmation:
-You did extract and run the emulator from game directory and it displayed the correct buttons when pushed on controller?
-You weren't running any game profiler programs or any software that came with your controller when you launched the game?

xaleel (2010-10-03)

general_snuggles (2010-10-03)

Hey word - thanks in advance for all your help. I stilll have the same problem - perhaps I am misunderstanding the concept here - you CAN play this game without an x-box controller right?
(PS - what kind of cookies do you like? I love oatmeal raison, but I can do sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and marjuana cookies ;) )

how do i seedddd?? yes im a noob!!

Fade07 (2010-10-04)

I don't get it. When I install the game. It asks for a Product key. Why's that? What am i doing wrong?

Typhon_JJ (2010-10-04)

guys just download jdownloader...
then go to
and put the url's in the program ... right click and continue all -.-'
took me 1 night to download O.o_l,,l
working perfect until now xD
been downloading this torrent for a weak and nothin -.-'

Deevees (2010-10-05)

I've beaten the game, so it works fine, I had problems when I first installed it, so here is a guide that will help you.
1. Make a folder on your desktop or something and name it Darksiders Install or something
2. Mount the Disk1 ISO with Daemon Tools
3. Open windows explorer, open the virtual drive (will be where your regular CD rom drive is, along with C drive etc etc), so right click it, then click Open
4. Copy all the contents from there to that folder we made earlier, should take around 5mins to copy it all considering it's like almost 8gb
5. When you've done that, unmount Disk1, then mount Disk2 ISO with Daemon Tools in the same drive
6. Open it again using windows exporer etc etc, copy all the files EXCEPT the SKIDROW folder, and paste them into that same folder we made in step 1
7. When that is done, close anything that's open that is related to Darksiders (ie. the Skidrow installer and stuff like that.)
8. Open the folder again we made in step 1, then run the installer.exe then click install
9. When the game is installed go back to windows explorer and open Disk2 again to see all the files, open the SKIDROW folder and copy everything there to the Darksiders folder whereever you installed it to, NOT the folder we made in step 1. So if you installed the game to C:/Program Files/Darksiders you'd copy it to there (for example)
I'm not sure if I missed anything but that's pretty much what I did to get it working. When I did it regularly like mounting disk 1, installing, then when it asks for disk2 i'd have to unmount disk1 and then mount disk2 blah blah, none of that worked and the install folder would only turn out to be like 9gb after it was done so yeah, this is what worked for me. Hope it worked for you guys too.

Dos_Vinci (2010-10-05)

IF YOU HAVE NO CINEMATICS/CUT SCENES.
Reinstall windows media player. If you don't have service pack three like me, version 10 works just as well.

fabian555 (2010-10-05)

seed please

word304 (2010-10-06)

#general_snuggles
Yes it is possible to play without an XBOX controller. I successfully played the game with a Logitech Dual Action Gamepad (cost me like $10~$15).

Kazinhu (2010-10-07)

So far, the game is running fine here. Only problem being, I can't keep any weapon other than the sword. I buy the scythe but when I load, I have to buy it again. This also happens with the enchantments for any weapon. Anyone else experiencing this?

Adonedhel (2010-10-07)

Game crashes at ashland arena fight with the red demon on horse, when you punch him off the horse and kick his sword. There may be a problem with that cutscene, i cant get past it.
Any help?

vinci89 (2010-10-07)

ok now i know y few seeders...
The game had no graphic tweakes what so ever, so ur stuck with laggy fps even with close to 'recommended sys requirements' very sad...

somedude.1001 (2010-10-07)

@vinci89: well its a port from console so a lot of things about it suck, like the entire control schemes and menus.
But the gameplay is decent. Im actually looking forward to Darksiders 2, might even buy it for the multiplayer exp.

JKRevan (2010-10-08)

@adonedhel
same issue here,
tried uninstalling, reinstalling... nothing
i have a save prior to THAT fight, but it always crash when the guy reaches for the sword, then the hud blinks for a frame, and BANG, CTD.

siviz4 (2010-10-08)

Be sure to create backups of your saves, because the game may delete them. Happened to me quite a fucking bit into the game, not fun. :p

stekko (2010-10-09)

about "deleted" saves
just go to save directory C:\Users\your user\Documents\My Games\Darksiders /win7/ and look there. sometimes the game creates subfolder and the saves are there. just copy/move them back in original folder and eventualy delete/change the name of subfolder

darkpat (2010-10-09)

@ JKReven
I got the same Problem, i asked for a solution a week ago, in 3 different uploads (Globe Skidrow, Tptb,) but no solutions no answers. Seems that only some People get this Prob.
I found no solution, i reinstalled the game 3 times, three different versions, Globe,skid, tbtp, but i think its a prob with the savegame.
If anyone got a savegame near ashlands, i would be glad if hed upload that for us.
If there are any solutions for that Prob , game crashes at arena boss fight, sword kick, please i want to finish that game...
THX

JKRevan (2010-10-10)

@RhymesMatter
Deleted the folder on my program files, and reinstalled everything... made a backup of the save in case somehting messed up
reapplied the crack, parts of it (namely only the "darksidersPC.exe" file), nothing works
im about to install the game on another computer, since there's ppl here (and a friend of mine) wo managed to complete the game sucessefully with this very same release.

JKRevan (2010-10-10)

since the installation wasnt a .. lets call a proper installation, since it only unpack's the contents, there was not a installation, just a unpacking of the game rip (i know how steam images work)
just run a registry cleaner afterwards to make sure
But... ANY1 FIGURES OUT WHY I CANT BEAT THE SHIT OUTTA THAT GUY ON THE HORSE?

MadMax75th (2010-10-10)

I do not show any "cracked" content after I unload the Disk2, to over write with. Is it not named "crack" ?
Otherwise the first disk seemed to install fine after it was mounted.
TY again.

MadMax75th (2010-10-10)

RHYMESMATTER : To remove, go to install icon in your Game file, left click on the installation icon and tell it to install...it will give you the option to repair, modify or remove (uninstall). That should get you where you want.

dr.purple (2010-10-11)

i tried the old and new installer nothing seems to get me pass the cutscene where griever appears for the first time in the hollows........................
anybody please post a save game after this point.....

ojdac (2010-10-11)

I got the same problem with the cutscene at the red horserider. The game crashes every time as soon he picks up the sword... can someone PLEASE post a solution to this problem alredy???

ojdac (2010-10-11)

Hey i solved the cutscene problem :) mabye i was lucky so i don't know if it will work for you guys. What i did was i truned of vertical sync in advanced options. Then i lowered the resolution to the lowest. It didn't work at first but after a few tries i got past the cut scene and was aible to continue playing :) god luck!

JKRevan (2010-10-11)

@ojdac hmm, ima try that,, be back in 20 minutes after 3 attempts

JKRevan (2010-10-11)

Didn't work for me, originally iplayed on 1024x728 no V-Sync
tried enhancing res, diminishing, turning V-Sync on n off, even tried on window mode, no luck so far.

znappy1234 (2010-10-14)

The game works perfectly, the sounds,graphics etc. But when i get to the griever the whole game just shuts down and when i start up and get to the griever it shuts down again and it goes on and on. I did what the .nfo file said you should do. Any help?

JKRevan (2010-10-17)

apparently, znapper hit the same problem we did, only at a earler boss...

JKRevan (2010-10-17)

STOP ALL PRESSES, I SOLVED THE PROBLEM
Here's what i did
Played normally till the point where the small prompt shown up on the dudes head, then i paused, hit ctrl alt del (this brought the task manager to your non savvy peeps), under process tab, select DarksidersPC.Exe, right click, set affinity to only ONE of your cores (in case of multi core comp), also i set the priority to Real time
Other thing that Should be accounted for is that i was running the game in 640x480 WINDOW mode, the game resumed on the fight with the rider, i returned all options to normal, game plays smoothly.

ojdac (2010-10-17)

Great solution JKreven :) i reinstalled the game and had the same problem again. This seemed to solve it real smoothly.

punisher2012 (2010-10-20)

game works well so far just finished dl'in an playing... only problem encountered so far is the intros r real jumpy an i dont tink it is my gfx card or drivers cuz dey r all updated... any1 else encounter dis...

Nigel022 (2010-10-23)

somewhat slow, but i managed to download it cuz sometimes downloaded at 700kb/s. installed it without any problems, played with only 2problems: the game sometimes freezes and i hav to ctrl+alt+del it bbut it starts up normal and the savegames sometimes go to another map but thats ez solved. im now at the black throne making my way up to straga and so far none major problems. so great download

Djmkills (2010-11-01)

For the people having the crashing problem at the horse. its a problem that has been happening to legit owners of the game too. try the vertical sync, resolution change. and Move the "videos" folder from the darksiders directory. worked for me

gameranik (2010-11-19)

I had a problem.My game crash in a point of the game.But I solve it.To fix random crash do as I told.
1.Copy all the content of both ISO image(The images you download from this torrent) in a folder.
2.Download this file:LINK
http://db.tt/HO3xBOe
3.Extract this achieve & copy all of its content to that folder.
4.Now install or re-install the game.
5.Play & Enjoy.
6.(Optional):file you download from my link has a updater.I don't update my game because i don't need it.So i recommended you not to update this game or you may lose your save data.If you follow my step & have no result then update the game.

I am now playing this game without any problem.

digglerd (2010-12-07)

Hey guys, game works Great, Installed perfect, no lag on cutscenes or anything, it's actually flawless, but i run a Phenom II x6 rig at 4.2 Ghz with HD 5770 and 8 gigs of ram at some salty timings. Only problem i'm having right now is pretty much right after the first time you encounter the griever, there is an area right after that were you drop down and there is water, you have to light the fumes with the crossblade. In this area there are inert bombs, that you have to throw at the red crystal, then go all the way around and set it to blow the door. Well. The problem i'm having is that i can sufficiently aim the inert bombs from the middle platform, but it will not let me throw one at the crystal when aiming high. i can aim as high as i can possibly aim, yet the bombs always go to the same level in the play area, pretty much right underneath the platform with the red crystal. It's like that wherever you throw them too, any way. you cant adjust the height - up or down even though you point higher or lower. Any one run into this or know a stitch to fix it? kinda stuck if i cant blow the crystal since i have not gotten the guantlets to destroy these things.
