When I picked up this game I thought it was going to be the run of the mill RPG hack and slash game, I was sorely mistaken. This game is fun but at the same time very difficult which can at times... more

    DARK SOULS LIMITED EDITION At first I wasn't 100% sure what Dark Souls was but my cousin told me everything I needed to know about the game which made me purchase the game. Dark Souls is an action adventure role playing game and is available for the Xbox 360 and PS3. The game is a spiritual successor to Demon's Souls which was labelled one of the hardest games ever. Dark Souls was publsihed and developed by From Software and Namco Bandai Games. Dark Souls is possibly the hardest game I have ever played and definitely the most challenging. With a dark fantasy universe available to explore ... more

    Advantages Advantages Rewarding and uniquely challenging. Some incredible battles.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Difficult, aloof, and lacking any player encouragement. Not for beginnners or casual players.

    "I can't take this"I feel your pain, friend.The text is scrawled on the floor, a digital message in a bottle left by a fellow Dark Souls player online somewhere out there. It's now the fifth time I've descended this darkened stairwell. Sword in one hand, shield in the other, I inch forward with the nervous gait of a dead man walking. Actually, if I fail this time, that metaphor will become a statement of fact (more on that later). If I can't emerge from this duel, I think I may have to give up for another night. Surely the sanctuary and welcoming glow of a bonfire must be around the next ... more

    Dark Souls Tested and reviewed based on the Xbox 360 version. Review by Ben Nacca (Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/BenNacca ) XBL GT: Darkeyes1991 PSN ID: Darkeyes2k11 For anyone who played Demon Souls on the Playstation 3 when it was released, you probably have a good idea of what is in store for you with Dark Souls. For those that have not played or even heard of Demon Souls, there will be a learning curve but most importantly, whether experienced veteran or fledgling newbie in this series; prepare to die, die and die again. Demon Souls was notorious for being just a downright hard ... more

    4 Stars Masochistic Gaming Review with images 08/03/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Rewarding, Longevity, Varied Gameplay, Immersive,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Poor Cooperative play, Exploitable PVP, Endings

    "Don't get yourself killed" says the blacksmith, easy for him to say, snuggled up to a furnace in his safe little corner, surrounded by freshly forged weapons. Dark Souls, a name that the majority of gamers have only heard about, the only inkling that its renowned for being a very tough game. But to be fair, this brief bit of talk doesn't do it justice. Underneath the difficulty lies a rich, classic fantasy land of giant castles, pitch black crypts, haunted churches and mysterious forrest's - all infested with hundreds of beastly enemies, mere target practice until the real boss's show up. Of ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Over 60 hours of in game experience, Exciting new areas and creatures, encourages co-op playstyles

    Disadvantages Disadvantages can be very frustrating, very difficult to complete solo, dying alot can be off putting

    When my friend first told me about Dark Souls, and how much he struggled to cope with it at times, as well as how it was supposed to be one of the hardest games that was out at the time, i knew i had to try it. From the very start of the game you can sense the dark and slightly twisted nature of the game as the opening video goes on to describe a world filled with darkness, evil, betrayal and death. After this video you open up the game locked in the 'Undead Asylum' where you have been told is where all the undead go to live out the rest of the years until death takes them, it is from this ... more
