GamePro - Dark Souls Review

Kat Bailey writes: Dark Souls is a vast game, and it's beyond the scope of this review to recount all the little ways in which it's a truly special experience. In many ways it's an incredibly ambitious game, but it also manages to master the individual moments that matter. Other games may be more polished -- the frame-rate is an occasional issue -- but I doubt they can match the terror that Dark Souls evokes in the simple act of turning a corner.

I got this game earlier today and I love it so far, its pretty much just like demons souls, but looks a little better.

I killed the first boss and some monsters, great game for any fans of demons souls!

the only defect that demons souls has is that it has an ending...

i understand the authors frustration i'm not the best at parrying in games. not that i can't complete a game that requires it but it is a definite harder thing for me than other kinds of techniques in games. which might be the main reason it's so heavily added in games nowadays. want to make your game challenging without having to do a lot of work? just add a parry boss. (what i mean by parry boss is a boss you have to beat by parrying such that their attacks will kill you otherwise)

I always think it's fine as long as such games also have the roll/dodge panic button. But I understand the will to parry, it seems so cinematic in a fight when you pull it off.
