  • Abstract:  Published October 10th 2011. Written by Daniel Cairns. If the modern game industry is a trendy bar, full of people like Jonathan Blow sipping cocktails and talking about lattes, then Dark Souls is the grizzled old one-legged war veteran who bursts in, ...

  • Lack of hand holding improves the adventure aspects of the title, Steady yet intelligent combat involves patience and tactics not sheer power, Beautiful and dingy land to explore with hints of lore scattered around, Amazing sense of accomplishment through progression
  • Those who play games casually should avoid this completely due to its painful difficulty, Bosses are so large they can sometimes shift the camera into walls

  • In case it hasn't been clear up to this point let us reiterate again that Dark Souls is incredibly challenging, in fact at times it verges on feeling like some sections are impossible. This is a game which has been responsible for more expletives than ...

  • Abstract:  PlayStation gamers were treated to an action RPG that broke the mould; Demon's Souls, a genre-shattering Dark Fantasy that played almost as if it was The Legend of Zelda for grownups. Praised for its exceedingly high difficulty, wonderful setting and tigh...

  • Challenging gameplay is rewarding; gorgeous game world is fun to explore.
  • Challenging gameplay is excruciating; gorgeous game world distracts you from the mob sneaking up behind you look out! ...too late.
  • If you want a recommendation on the game, here it is: if you're the kind of gamer who thrives on difficult challenges and enjoys the thrill of victory that comes from overcoming them, then you have to get Dark Souls. Dark Souls is a five-star game for...
