THQ have announced they will be releasing a huge 90-mintute demo for the blockbuster hit Darksiders. The demo includes the first dungeon from the game, the Twilight Cathedral. The demo will be available to download from Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network on February 25th.

David Adams, General Manager of Vigil Games says,“We are really pumped to be bringing a playable demo for Darksiders to Xbox 360 and PlayStation3. We really wanted to give gamers a true idea of the variety of gameplay that the game offers and so 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.”

It's great to see Vigil Games and THQ go the extra mile to give a great representation of the game. Have you beat Darksiders? Does a demo interest you? Let us know in the comment section.

VG247 says fl0wer will be released onto PSN on the 19th of February. Other details, like what territories will get it and what the price will be, are unknown.

What isn't unknown, though, is that it looks brilliant, it's a sequel-of-sort to fl0w, and David Jaffe thinks it's one of the most emotional games of all time. Individual blades of grass rendered seperately, each part of entire fields on top of rolling hills, it looks beautiful, but don't just take our word for it; watch these videos.
