Dark Souls

[darko]

So I picked up Dark Souls on 360 last week. I started playing it on Saturday. All I have to say is I've never, ever, seen a game over screen so many times in my entire life. Now I'm not a prodigy or anything even close, but I'm good at playing games. This is a super brutal RPG for sure. I own Demon's Souls but I never really played it. I just don't really like playing games on the PS3 for some reason.

Is it fun? Yes.
Does it look great? Yes.
Will I beat it? Probably.
Should you pick it up? Definitely (if you're an RPG fan that's not afraid of a real challenge).

I've only played a little bit of Demon's Souls, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.  The first time I died, I had no idea what happened.  I respawned and saw my former ghost self walk right into a hole in the ground and laughed out loud.  The game is brutally hard but gorgeous.  I couldn't really deal with the difficulty but would feel so proud if I were ever able to go back to it.

Be prepared to see "Need Head" written everywhere. Also "Try jumping off".

I made it to the final boss last night. I didn't beat it on purpose because I want to run around and get some items before I start a NG+. The PVP is still broken but there's a patch coming out sometime soon to address the issue. Honestly, I can't recommend this game enough. It's excellent.
