Searing frustration turns into unrivaled glee. No game is more rewarding than Dark Souls.
After nearly exhausting my options in Demon's Souls from playing it for nearly 300 hours, I must say I was excited when Dark Souls was announced. But, I was also worried. With a different Publisher as well as going mul... Read Full Review

Painful.
I'm in the minority, I don't get it. The difficultly feels cheap to me (although not as hard as most people make out), the game looks dank, muddy (in a bad way) and a little old, the menu system is just as dank, muddy an... Read Full Review

The low rating pansies go back to generic Hack n Slash
For all those who say this game is terrible, go back to games you can cheat or hack you pansies. This is a very hard game to say the least. The learning curve can be steep depending if you havent played demon souls. I, h... Read Full Review

A game that is as much of a subtle reflection on the idea of entitlement as it is a great game.
For those of you that don't know, Dark Souls is a game...the spiritual successor to a sleeper / cult classic that came out in 2009 called Demon Souls. I'd venture to say that Demon Souls was the hardest game I've ever pl... Read Full Review

They've done it again...
In my previous review of Demon's Souls, I rated it up there with the most challenging of games. To date, it is one of my favorite games. I didn't believe the hype when From Software announced that Dark Souls would be e... Read Full Review

Ignorant button-mashers stay away!
As has been said in other reviews, this is NOT a straight up hack-n-slash dungeon crawler. You have to use caution, skill and timing, and most of all, your brain (thank God). And if you do all those things well, you will... Read Full Review

The only game that manages to kick you in the nads repeatedly and make you want more
I was a huge fan of demon's souls because being a gamer all my life a challenging game was always welcome. Demon's souls managed to get the difficulty to be hard but not impossible. Dark souls has accomplished making t... Read Full Review

If you consider yourself a "True Gamer", Dark Souls will blow your mind!
I find this game to be challenging, however when you do defeat a difficult enemy, the satisfaction is awesome. I'm amazed at the numerous secret passages and hidden treasures. The graphics are second to none and game pla... Read Full Review
