Dark Souls Remastered Review - IGN

The power of current-generation consoles gives Dark Souls the smooth framerate it always needed.

Obelisk922539d ago

Can't wait to grab it tomorrow.

I need to pull out my PS3 and figure out which build I want to recreate for the remaster.

InKnight7s2539d ago

I would like demon souls more than another Dark Souls milking.

Tankbusta402539d ago (Edited 2539d ago )

I agree, I have no idea why Demon's is like the black sheep of the series. I felt it was clearly better than Dark Souls, but of course MOST people missed Demon's so Dark Souls was their first foray into the series and...nostalgia glasses

@ciporta1980
well you are partialy right.
But back then the "soul rpg" genre was pretty new thing, while people were waiting for FF and other famous serieses and Journalists were too busy to praise any shooters and been too biased toward X360, so Demon Souls didn't have great chance with considering PS3 in 2009 was just starting to get rid the pricing curse.

I said partialy right because, 8 years later Bloodborne got released and achieved massive success in both critics and sales although its a PS4 exclusives.

For real. Never underestood. I mean that IP is Sony owned I think. But it has so much potential.

meganick2539d ago

Demon’s Souls was my first Souls game, bought it on release day in fact. But I think Dark Souls is superior and the best of all the Souls games.

I don't think this is a milking, plenty of people will be able to play it for the first time.

However, I agree, it would be nice to get a Demon's Souls remake (not remaster). My guess is it happens...

jobboy2539d ago

mine has shipped right now :)

Kabaneri2539d ago (Edited 2539d ago )

I started out with Bloodborne and then played Dark Souls 3 (I tried 2 it sucks), so this is a whole new Souls game for me.

JerseyDon2539d ago

You will greatly enjoy. Fantastic experience as was 3, but you will see a drastic and better experience with this one for sure

Tankbusta402539d ago

I think you just read a message board or something and disliked 2 because it was cool. I admit its not the best but the core gameplay is the same so you shouldn't have hated it

Kabaneri2539d ago

I felt that the movement was too sluggish and the artwork/atmosphere was lackluster compared to the others.

LgbtWarrior2539d ago

You may have some trouble with controls n stiffness compared to dark 3 n bloodborne but you will adjust.

My first thought was the safe rooms in the resident evil series. When you hear that enchanting music you know you’re safe.

Killer2020UK646d ago

I literally just came here to post this. That music in the Resi 1 safe rooms is playing in my head.

Rimeskeem645d ago

I was thinking TLOU work benches. Although I remember one time where it was a false security.

closed_account645d ago

Perfect. 👌👌

I'd add the top of my highrise apartment in GTA Online. That calm, quiet peace, just knowing as soon as I step out that door I will be bombarded by 8 and 12 year olds calling each other n**** and f****, trolled by combat jets and rocket launchers.

The entire map of SotC is peaceful as hell. Used to just ride around exploring it.

mastershredder645d ago (Edited 645d ago )

Afterlife in Cyberpunk 2077 is a peaceful area? Erm, hands down and very hard to miss, Misty Olszewski's Esoterica is the absolute epitome of peaceful areas in that game.

raiden_188645d ago

The "last of us" deer location i found to be a welcoming respite. It was nice to not have someone trying to eat me.

RPGer645d ago

Kingdom Hearts tend to present half peaceful areas and most of them are amazing.
