Gonna pull the trigger, Ebay member will ship as a gift.

?46 it is!

Hope I enjoy it and can play some Co-Op with you guys:DD

Gotta buy inFamous as well this month though, gonna be poor:((

edit:> ?47 today, damn exchange rat:p:p

I'm still considering it, payday on Frida:):) Plus have about ?48 to come from quidco this month too so would pretty much be free:D :D

I started over as a Barbarian last night and managed to get far enough to find the Cling Ring. I still die every 2 seconds but finding the ring has made it somewhat bearable, for now. There's no hope in beating Vanguard by myself so who wants to do some co-op? :D

If you do end up going for it I found this to be the cheapest - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=220410937418 Due to free postage (delivery around 7 days) it makes it cheaper than others than tend to be around 60 odd $, but then have $7-10 postage.

Guy also confirmed he'll ship as a gift of low value to avoid tax.

I'll try helping out! Once I have this game all my exams are over so I'll spend some time trying to not die:pp Looking forward to the challenge, most other games are a walk in the park.

Does Demons Souls even have difficulty levels?:pp Or is it one default difficulty of "**** hard"?

imo royal is a good starting class you get a ring that regenerates your mp and a decent spell but his hp is a little low (enough to get though the first real level without dying) and as that class starts as soul level 1 its cheap to level up the first few times, just attack at range with the magic then wait for it to regen, once you finish 1-1, grind it a few times so you can buy 150-200 arrows (to kill the dragon in 1-2) spend what you get from the dragon, then move on to the 1-2 boss, hes easy(er) with a magic user

Have to say I am intrigued by the game, really fancy it but not sure because of the difficulty. Don't get me wrong, I like a challenge but when it feels like I am bashing my head against a brick wall the game controller generally gets bashed against the wall :p

Anyway do you guys reckon its worth the money or should I wait for the eventual translation of all the other PAL languages (be hopeful there is a translation)?

Well I decided to import because

a) I'm unsure if it will see a western release, although it being fully English....

b) If it does it won't be until the end of the year, maybe 2010

c) Also if it does we dunno if the devs will dumb it down for the western audiences, but this is quite unlikely. However it tends to be the Japanese who love crazy hard games, the west are too busy drooling over their gaming pads playing in "god mode", aka easy (waits for Sethos to show up and say "**** YOU AB I PLAY ON THE HARDEST DIFFICULTY")

I originally started as Barbarian but I'm going back as a Royal..and to try and beat that Vanguard bugger :angry:

Also...handy hint..your choice of weapon is critical in more ways than is usual in a game!

Basterd* Sword + narrow corridor = deady mcdeath

*not the real name, damn swear filter :angry:

?46.83 today, think I just found your seller as I see a Gavin asking a questi:p :p

Will most likely order this tomorrow on payd:) :)

I started over again as a Royal and got much further than my other characters. I think I'm getting the hang of it now. I didn't realize you could lock on to enemies by clicking the right stick heh. Now I'm stuck at that big ass dragon. :|

I wish the manual was in engrish but I've found the wiki to be helpful.

Did your game not come with a small English pamphlet explaining the various things?

post-147878-1242312818_thumb.jpg

Everyone's manual is in Japanese, Chinese or Korean.

The English leaflet is included in the Hong Kong version. The Korean version is also fully english in game, but it doesn't come with an English leaflet.

Dragon confirmed in Demon's Souls, breathes fire

From Software disappointed with Ninja Blade on Xbox 360, but it has a chance to redeem itself with the medieval-flavored Demon's Souls on PS3. This PlayStation exclusive looks really pretty, but the amount of gameplay we've seen is limited, despite the game being available over in Japan Land.

Luckily, one our resident Community Bloggers has set us straight and provided confirmation of a fire-breathing dragon that flaps around a bit during one point of the game. The twenty-four seconds of questionable-quality footage does not show or do very much of anything at all, but it's an exclusive console title, and that means fanboys will want to absorb any and all information they can, even if it's silly.

So, dig in and feast upon this hot exclusive video of a dragon that flaps around a bit for twenty-four seconds and then goes away!

Also, our CBlogger seems quite impressed with the game, naming the dragon's appearance as just one "oh sh*t" moment out of many. Sounds like Demon's Souls has a good shot of being far better than Ninja Blade.

Hit the jump for the hot, juicy, mindblowing video.

Asian/Korean versions are fully English (menus/subtitles and voices) which are why people are importing. Should get an EU/USA release based on that alone.

Don't think there is a demo on Hong Kong/Japanese store, I'll take a look.

    • Last week I was investigating an issue with contacts and tried using the new Outlook. In the real (Classic) Outlook, you can easily go to any Outlook folder and present it in a Table View, then customize the columns to show/sort any field, which was exactly what I needed. But of course, the new Outlook doesn't have this feature at all. I gave up. Oh, and can we possibly stop claiming the new Outlook has PST support? What it really has is the ability to use the real Outlook in the background to pretend to have PST support. There is no PST support without the real Outlook installed.
    • Honestly just before Panos left it started to feel like MS just wasnt interested in them so they were being less innovative with them, and then when he DID leave for Amazon its kind of clear the direction is gone. It felt like Panos had both goals and drive, and a vision, but it felt like no matter what his title/department was the Surface devices never had the full interest of the rest of management and he was just pushing a bolder up a hill that MS was adding dirt to as he went.
    • A roguelike and a 4X strategy game are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The final leg of the Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways promotion just landed, and it brought along two more games to keep. Last week's Lonestar and Calico giveaways have now been replaced with copies of Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest to claim for PC gamers. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. Diving into the games, Songs of Conquest is developed by Lavapotion. This is a turn-based 4X strategy experience that has players making tough decisions and participating in tactical combat while also managing their kingdom. "Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game inspired by 90s classics. Lead powerful magicians called Wielders and venture to lands unknown," explains the developer. "Wage battles against armies that dare oppose you, hunt for powerful artifacts and expand your territory. The world is ripe for the taking – seize it." Meanwhile, Rogue Waters comes from developer Ice Code Games. This rogue-lite experience has you taking the role of Captain Cutter as he commands his ship and crew through procedurally generated encounters. You'll be recruiting and training crew, use sea creatures, and battle with other ships and pirates. "Set sail as Captain Cutter, a pirate caught in a deadly struggle for power and vengeance," adds the developer. "Navigate dangerous waters, unleash mythical sea creatures, and outwit enemies as you chase legendary treasure and confront dark secrets." The newly available Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day, which is slated to be Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook by Usama Jawad As many of you may know, Microsoft has been trying to get customers to ditch Classic Outlook in favor of New Outlook for quite some time now. To that end, it has added numerous capabilities to the latter, including PST features, and it is working on several more, such as a unified inbox. However, customer response has been a bit lukewarm so far, with many considering the New Outlook to be "hot garbage". Now, Microsoft has highlighted 15 features that users can leverage in New Outlook in yet another attempt to get customers to migrate. Although not all of the 15 capabilities are exclusive to New Outlook, in fact, most of them are available in Classic Outlook as well. But Microsoft hopes that this combination of familiar and fresh features will be able to attract existing users as well as new ones. For ease of readability, we have summarized the 15 features below: Pin an email: This makes it easier to track important emails Snooze an email: You can temporarily snooze an email thread for a specific time frame until it becomes relevant again. This can be very useful in scenarios where you don't feel like actively following a thread or simply want to follow up on a later date Add multiple categories at the same time: You can assign multiple categories to an email through a single, simplified interface Sweep: As the name implies, you can define automated move processes on your inbox to declutter it, rather than cleaning it up manually Schedule send: Does exactly what it says on the tin, and can be useful when accommodating recipients in different timezones Simplified folder sharing: The sharing process has been simplified so permissions are automatically applied on parent folders Follow a meeting: This is an RSVP option that lets people know that you won't be able to join the meeting but would still like to access a recap Save calendar views: You can save different views for the calendar based on different workflows Improved meeting tracking: Organizers have more controls in viewing meeting responses, such as the ability to sort and download them. Typically useful when there is a large audience Meeting recap: The Outlook Calendar surfaces a meeting recap with recordings, transcripts, and shared files Filtered views: Allows you to declutter your Calendar so that it's easier to scan and schedule Change a recurring event: Users can modify future events of a series of meetings while preserving the configuration of previous ones Rename your email account: This labeling makes it easier to identify multiple accounts in Outlook Modern themes: Exactly what the name says, plus Dark Mode Keyboard shortcuts: This facilitates flexible user behavior as customers can choose between Outlook for Windows shortcuts, Outlook for the web, or turn them off completely There you have it. It's a decent list, but it remains to be seen if it will move the needle in a meaningful way for users who are attached to Classic Outlook. Again, a lot of the aforementioned features are already available in Outlook Classic, but for some, native functionality is not present, and people typically resort to workarounds. Microsoft will be hoping that it's primarily those capabilities that get people to finally switch.
