Finally!

*Puts down the PS3 controller and kind of "Pauses" Demon's Souls to take a look at the review*

Score doesn't seem to bad and seems quite reasonable.

{Edit} over 30 hours and that difficulty (While soloing) is starting to get to me, may need some help with this one to :/.

rdgneoz35322d ago

Don't forget, 30 hours for 1 play through, and not everyone gets max level playing through. I remember reading I think 1 dev was saying he got to 35 after the first play through. Also, there are 4 characters to choose from and 130 side quests total (don't think everyone will do all of them in 1 play through).

Myst5322d ago

Yep, I'll probably do multiple play throughs, but I probably will just use the same character each time as well. Being that the max level is 50 and the game has a newgame+ type of deal I probably will just keep playing through the same character.

The side quests will be like Sacred 2 I won't get to them all :p.

WildArmed5322d ago

for a sec i thought u were talking about demon's souls @1.1
I was like.. no1 can get max lvl in the first run.. no1 -.-

I love roaming in Soul Form putting up stones everywhere.
Since Im trying to run a perfect white tendency run.
I missed up alot during my first run... including finishing the game w/o hunting all the premival demons and doing the white/black soul tendency events o-O
Gluck

Demons souls is pure awesome I haven't touched any of my other games in

the longest. I probably won't until my 4th or 5th new game+. Best PS3 to

come out yet.

ABizzel15322d ago

Most of the review scores have been in the mid and upper 8's so I'll rent it first since I had some interest in it back when it was first shown. I wonder why this game doesn't have any real hype for it. It seems like a good game, and it's not getting any real press. I know Uncharted 2 just came out and Modern Warfare 2 is coming out, but a good game deserves some kind of buzz no matter what great game just came out before or after it.

Tex1175321d ago

Demon's Souls is greatness.

Though you can swing through levels really fast on the second play through.

WildArmed5321d ago

@Tex
and thats why there are some odd 714 levels in the game lol

WildArmed5322d ago

I still need to pick up U2, NGS2 and alot more b4 i can catch up to Oct 2009 =/ Its depressing how low my gaming budget has gotten since college started

BO WALEED5322d ago

BORDERLANDS deserve 9+ .. guys I am playing it now with level 18, I can simply say its one of the best games ever and its totally > Fallout3
and the co-op is AWESOME!!!
the game doesn't have any single bad thing!
screw IGN/Gametrailers and anyone who gave it less than 9

spunnups5322d ago

Looks like something i'd pick up when it hits the $30 range. I'm not exactly desperate for a good game right now being a PS3 owner.

dreamcast5322d ago

Good score for a good game, I hope. We'll find out tomorrow =)

The Pursuer from Dark Spuls 2 was great, I think the author just sucks at games.

The Godskin Duo is a great fight

Borderlands' Opening Scene Is Still An All-Time Great

TheGamer Writes "I don't think my most controversial video game take should be that controversial, but it is. I'm a video game journalist, so you know I have some bad takes in this broken down serotonin factory I call a brain, but here's one opinion that receives universal pushback: I don't like video game music."
