Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: Once Abaddon is attacked in mid air by a Grappleclaw Demon, Uriel swoops down to save him and from the view it shows that Abaddon is held by the Grappleclaw under him with the Grappleclaw's head much higher up. But as Uriel is striking, Abaddon is suddenly higher up.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: After Abaddon mentions the Final Seal, a Grappleclaw Demon leaps at him and he looks up to raise his arm and defend himself. In the shot from over Abaddon, he looks up and is almost looking straight up, but it cuts to a different angle and he's now looking almost fully to the side.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: There is a sign with a picture of a leg on it next to another sign with a guy wearing red sunglasses posted on the building on the left hand side of the street that War walks down to encounter Abaddon and Straga. Abaddon hovers above the lava pit at the end of the street when War encounters him, but in several shots looking up at Abaddon, he's suddenly down next to those two signs and switches back and forth from shot to shot depending on what's happening.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: When War asks where are his brothers, it cuts to a close up of his face and suddenly a red Hell spike appears behind him.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: As War walks up to Abaddon, he questions what is going on and reaches towards his back to draw his sword. In the close up of him grabbing the sword's handle, it appears there is a wall very close to War behind him that's glowing red with one of the red Hell spikes right behind him with burning fire suggesting he's standing with the lava pit in the road behind him. But as he's drawing his sword it cuts to a different angle and now War is back to being in the middle of the street with nothing behind him having been able to make the appearance of what was seen in the previous shot.

Darksiders trivia picture

Trivia: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During the cut scene where you see Abaddon and before you fight Straga, there is a moment when a Minion Demon tackles an Angel out of the sky next to a billboard on a building. If you look closely at that sign, there are various names on it. These names are people who are part of the Darksiders' development team. Names including John Tran, Howard Tang, Bri Thatcher, Nick Southam, Chris Doerr, Jeremy Robins, Pedro Seminario, and more.

Other mistake: During the cut scene where you see Abaddon before fighting Straga on The Apocalypse/Mayhem level at the beginning of the game, you can see Minion Demons freely crawling out and diving into the pool of lava unharmed and dragging Angels into the lava. However, during game play on other levels if War hits a Minion Demon and knocks them into a pool of lava, they die instantly.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During the cut scene before Straga, War walks up to Abaddon and you can see a double yellow line on the road beside War. It cuts to a close up of War's face, then to Abaddon, and then to War drawing his sword. And then back to him on the road and now the double yellow line has vanished off the street.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During the cut scene before fighting Straga, a Minion Demon pins down an Angel Soldier and proceeds to rip his throat out. In one shot, you see the Demon's teeth hitting their mark, going into the Angel's neck and jaw line. But it cuts to a different angle during this first bite and suddenly the Demon's teeth are sinking into the Angel's upper torso just below his neck.

Revealing mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During the cut scene before your first battle with Straga, various Angels and Demons are fighting. It shows one Minion Demon holding an Angel Soldier, and in the over head shot he's holding the Angel's torso up off the ground. When it cuts to a side angle just before the Demon rips out the Angel's throat, suddenly the Angel is not only on the ground, but almost completely inside the ground with just part of his face and torso sticking out in a bad animation moment.

Continuity mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: Just before the first battle with Straga, you walk down a street where there is a large hole in the road filled with lava and some Angels are fighting some Minion Demons. On the other side of the hole, there is nobody. But once the cut scene starts on an angel in the sky, he swoops down towards that spot and suddenly Abaddon and another Angel Soldier appear standing on the far end of the hole.

Other mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: Right as the cut scene starts where you meet Abaddon, there are three Angels on screen. The one standing on a building is just looking around, and right before the one hovering by the camera starts to swoop down, the one standing on the building turns his staff towards a diction, charges a shot and fires... Only he's shooting at nothing for no apparent reason. There are no demons or humans visible that direction, and only distant buildings down the street far out of his range. So he's just animated to shoot randomly down the street at nothing.

Other mistake: The Apocalypses/Mayhem: If before heading down the road where you meet Straga, you pick up a car and then go down there, the cut scene introducing Abaddon and Uriel still plays. War looks normal walking up and talking with nothing in his hand. But as soon as the cut scene ends, you will be standing there now holding the car above War's head once more. And considering that right after this cut scene, you have your first encounter with Straga, and his weakness at this point is throwing cars at him, this allows you to get an early hit on him right off the bat by throwing the car as soon as the cut scene ends, before he ever hits the ground to cause cars to rain from the sky for you to use.

Revealing mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During this level, meteors are constantly falling down to the earth. A lot of items in the environment are destructible, including all vehicles seen. However, if a meteor strikes a vehicle, like a bus, it does nothing to it. But rather passes right through the bus and just leaves an impact crater under it.

Uriel: What in Heaven's name have you done!?

Narrator: Since the dawn of time, the armies of Heaven and Hell have waged an endless war. Drawn to the conflict was the Charred Council, an entity bound by ancient laws to preserve order and balance. It held that any great power, unchecked, threatened the very fabric of the universe. In time, Heaven and Hell came to honor the Council and its laws, for none were beyond the swift and terrible justice of the Council's enforcers... a fearsome brotherhood known as the Four Horsemen. Amid the turmoil, the first humans emerged. The Council foretold that these weak, but cunning creatures would someday be integral to the Balance. Thus, the third kingdom was named... the Kingdom of Man. By order of the Council, a truce was forged between Heaven and Hell. The great pact was bound by Seven Seals, to be broken at the appointed time... when Man's Kingdom stood ready for the End War... a battle that would bring balance and determine the ultimate fate of the three kingdoms.
