The editors didn't like
Extremely difficult
Some presentation issues.
Unwieldy targeting system
Unforgiving difficulty will turn off many gamers
Slight physics bugs and very high difficulty that will frustrate most
But invigorate some.
May be too challenging and demanding for some players. Pretty much must be connected to the internet to really enjoy the game. Can be kind of easy to lose souls if you’ve been killed.

Gamers who are debating whether or not to play Demon’s Souls should take a chance with this challenging RPG title. However, it is not for those who like mindless hack and slash games. Demon’s Souls has a lot of potential for re-playability. Hardcore ga...
Abstract: Demons Souls just might be one of the best games you never heard of. When telling people of the current game I was playing never did anyone know what game I was talking about. And if you are one of those who have heard about it it is still an awesome g...
Abstract: Demon’s Souls is, at least in recent memory, the best game that you shouldn’t buy. The game gets a lot right, but it gets just as much wrong. And because of this very few gamers will ever be able to really appreciate it. Demon’s Souls is hard. Seriousl...
