DARK SOULS Special Edition for £36.85

Now that PSN is on the mend ( touch wood , spin round 3 times , spit over shoulder ,quote Hamlet )  we can all look forward to Dark Souls , which like it`s predecessor will leverage the fact that PSN is a free service . Demon Souls it could be argued has the most innovative use of online gaming of any game period. 


And we can also look forward to a very special special edition , which is currently topping pre-order charts at Zavvi for £36.85 , a far better deal than the Infamous 2 special edition and the Deus Ex 3 Special Editions which come in at £99.99 ( like that won't drop to £49.99 within a week of launch!)

Dark Souls Limited Edition Features:

• Full Game.
• New Packaging.
• Game Guide.
• Artbook.
• Bonus Disc with Sound Track and Making Of.

need it ? get it from Zavvi in the UK  where the due date is 15/07/11

Dark Souls on Steam :Prepare to die one more time ...just one more time...

There are games that are easy ,there are games that are difficult even games that have a Legendary difficulty setting . Most are easily finished within 10 hours or so.

Then there are games where the difficulty is a game mechanic,the very reason in fact the only reason to play .The original Steel Battalion with it's back to the beginning you go every time you die mantra is one of these,so are the PS3 Demon Souls and Dark Souls. These games tap a gamers hunger for challenge, just like arcade games of old. Most of these games interestingly  have a Japanese origin, coded by core gamers for core gamers in the evolution of gaming culture the quick save arrived only with Western developer coded FPS games.There never was an F6 on an arcade machine now was there?

Dark Souls does have save points, but not in the traditional sense for every time you sit down to a camp fire you know all the monsters are being reset and you feel the shame of being too weak to carve through the demon hordes with your otherwise legendary gaming ego deflated by an umpteenth defeat. But that is when the magic kicks in just as this  game deflates your ego it reaches inside your psyche and reboots it so you come back from utter despair to face the hordes again and again and it never gets old. 

Here's my first 30 minutes or so, getting used to the 360 controller takes time coming from the PS3 dual shock and a controller is the way to play this game , not keyboard and mouse as you might think. 

Dark Souls is no Skyrim and never intends to be, you do not care for the story or plot or character development, it is pure arcade skill and challenge something which our Japanese cousins have excelled at since they invented the first arcade games. 

If arcades were still around there would be as large a crowd around the Demon Souls machine as there used to be around the old Kong,Street Fighter or Virtua whatever in their heyday. 

Demon Souls is a game of respect, so congratulations to From for delivering this on PC, now all they have to do is patch it up a little to suit the ever increasing demands of PC gamers. 

I would love to see FROM release the Armored Core and Kings Field series on PC eventually. 

The best deal for Demon doh!!! Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition I found was on Green Gaming Man with the 20% discount code it comes to £24 ... the rest wait till a Steam sale, although niche games like Demon Souls tend to hold their price.  See you out there...
