Got yourself a copy of Darksiders but, for whatever reason (admit it, you lost it), don’t have the slip of paper it came with containing the “mystery code” redeemable for a free copy of Red Faction Guerrilla and digital art book? Seems you’re not out of luck — unless you bought it second-hand (or “pre-played,” if you will).

Vigil has announced via its official Darksiders blog that those without codes, but who purchased the game new can still get the free RFG and disc full o’ artwork. It’s a little more work than simply clicking a link and typing in a code, but, hey, free is free. Those who want in on the promotion must fill out a form, provide “your original purchase receipt of a NEW copy of Darksiders,” the barcode from the cover insert and, like everything else, pay shipping and “handling” (we never quite got what that is, exactly).

You have until March 7 to get in on the promotion, whatever your situation may be.

[Thanks, NBA Kirkland]

THQ CEO: Saints Row and Red Faction at E3, De Blob going multiplatform

saintsrow217 THQ CEO: Saints Row and Red Faction at E3, De Blob going multiplatformIn an interview with IGN, THQ CEO (that’s a lot of three-letter abbreviations right next to each other) Brian Farrell provided more details about the company’s upcoming lineup. For one, we can expect to see the new Saints Row and Red Faction games as soon as E3, as well as other assorted games from THQ’s lineup.

“I think we’re going to blow people away at E3,” Farrell said. “You’ll be seeing Saints Row 3. You’ll be seeing the next Red Faction. You’ll be seeing more of Homefront. We’ve been talking about it, but we’ll actually show some of our Warhammer 40k MMO, and I think people are going to go, ‘Oh my God. They’ve got their stuff together.’” And Saints Row 3 will evidently cause some to remark, “This is not your father’s THQ.”

Farrell also suggested that THQ has learned its lesson from the last few years of the Wii market, and won’t be trying anything like Deadly Creatures again — a “fun experience” that “didn’t find much of an audience.” A few “brand extensions” will be shown on Wii this E3, Farrell said. And speaking of extended brands and the Wii, the executive said that the upcoming SyFy-fueled relaunch of De Blob won’t just be a Wii game — it’ll be released across multiple platforms, still developed by Blue Tongue. “Actually, I prefer it on a normal controller,” Farrell said.

‘Extensive’ 90-min Darksiders demo on XBL, PSN Feb. 25

If a batch of positive reviews has yet to sway you towards picking up Darksiders, THQ and developer Vigil Games are hoping to change that by means of a demo planned to hit Xbox Live and PlayStation Network on February 25. Not just any demo, mind you, but one its publisher claims will “take approximately 90 minutes to complete for the average player.” That claim is backed up by the fact that it will include the entire first dungeon — which is home to two bosses — from the retail release.

Vigil general manager David Adams explains in the demo’s announcement that the dev “really wanted to give gamers a true idea of the variety of gameplay that the game offers,” adding, “rather than just making a standard 20-minute demo version of the first few levels, we decided to give away this massive level and reveal the true essence of the game.”

Here’s what we want you to do. Bookmark this post, then, once the demo hits, come back here and leave a comment letting us know how long it took you to complete. Nothing official-like, but it’ll be fun to put THQ’s estimate to the test. Just remember — it said “for the average player.” We know you’re all well above average.
