One of the very few games I've pre-ordered this gen.

That trailer really sold it for me.

Huge bosses. If a game has them, i pretty much have to play it. I would have liked to have seen a proper co-op mode in this though.

Probably why Shadow of the Colossus is one my favourite games.

Is it still a PS3 exclusive, Audio?

It was never an exclusive, this is on 360 as well. Demon Souls was the exclusive.

[WastedJoker]

That's what I meant :p

Sweet, I'll definitely buy this for 360.

Demon's Souls was OK at best. The gameplay was fantastic ("difficulty" included), but the story was almost non-existent which made it a chore to actually play through the game. I hope they fix/add the story for Dark Souls, and if they do it definitely will be an awesome game.

my main problem with Demon's Souls are the graphics...i was really expecting a visual masterpiece from the reviews, the actual product is more like an upscaled PS2 game. other than that it's OK, i don't mind the repetitive and hard gameplay, i figure it's like an 80's arcade game, like Golden Axe or something. You're not supposed to get very far without a lot of trial and error.

Having said all that, hope Dark Souls DOES come closer to a conventional modern game...there's a reason why these conventions have become the norm. like actual save points. people who work 50 hours a week can ill afford a game where one level could take all night to finish!

Um when you quit demons souls and load it you appear exactly where you were when you quit :laugh: Demons Souls saves all the time, every little thing you do/pickup/kill is saved.

If anything it's a more advanced system as you don't need save points and clunky menus to save in.

what do you mean, i can quit mid-level and next time it will restart there, not at the start of the level or the nexus? will have to try that!

It will start exactly where you quit :) Although I'm sure quitting during a boss battle might restart the whole thing, I've never done that myself.

don't be mad, but i gave Demon's Souls away to a friend...he will enjoy it more, it was too formidable for me :laugh:

LOL, thanks for the trailer Audio :) I tweeted to you about this game since I haven't played Demon Souls before... still interested in the game though. Fingers crossed that the game isn't too hard :p
