Though levels retain the now-standard-for-this-generation dark, gritty look, they help sell the experience. As much as I would like to see green grass and blue skies, doing so would kill the game's thematic concept. Each of the five worlds offer their own unique set pieces. When walking around Demon's Souls hub world, Nexus, you'll meet characters whose environments tell a lot about them, such as the trader or 'Bag Man.'"
Soulslikes are punishingly difficult but amongst the most compelling games. Power Up Gaming goes through the top ten Soulslikes you're likely not playing.
Demon's Souls isn't Soulslike. It's the original Souls game. WTF? And Elden Ring?
Another Crab's Treasure simply is not.
All the journos claiming things are "Soulslike" simply don't know what that word means.
The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.
Nioh 1+2 imo are the best souls clone. Love the melee combat and ki system, really hoping team ninja doesn't abandon the IP and continue with a new title, hell just give us your take on the western fantasy setting for a new nioh game.
FromSoftware's PS3 masterpiece changed everything.
The lock on and intense and in depth one on one combat was always something I've been a fan of. Ocarina of time definitely deserves credit there as well which is also one of those games that may have inspired souls. Souls has done an amazing job at making many games better telling the world that difficult games are still great and loved.
I still have my PS3 copy, but I played that game for over 100 hours.
My copy was a gift for a religious occurrence, back in 2011.
Never opened it because I already knew the Souls games are not for me but it's always nice to have it in the collection.
Demon souls and the remake will be forever etched in my mind so many playthroughs and a proper gaming experience
Comparison videos of Demon's Souls & Black Myth: Wukong running on both PS5 and PS5 Pro showcase an impressive upgrade on the mid-gen console.
Well yeah it tells you the difference— 1440p vs 4k for 60fps. You have to watch the video in 4k to see the difference.
Wukong actually performs worst in performance mode, wtf!
And wheres the damn update for this game. They're still more work to be done.
I saw Zero noticeable difference when I played it on Pro. The only game I’ve seen significant difference in is FF7RB but now I get these stutters after the Pro update. I can safely say that if you don’t have a PS5 then getting the Pro is a no brainer but upgrading from PS5 to Pro is not a wise move as of now. Wait for better new games.
So you’re telling me that I DONT have a PS5 Pro and you’re telling me that I DONT have Demon’s Souls and you’re telling me that I DID in fact see a different in a game that according to you I don’t have? Im assuming you’re one of the lucky few who owns a Pro saw a major Difference in Demon’s Souls right?
WOW!! This, Alpha Protocol, Uncharted 2, and Ratchet and Clank all in the same month? Holy @#$%!!!
On topic, this looks extremely good! Like I've said before, this will be the sleeper hit of 2009.

The score went up to 90! I would have thought that reviewers would have moaned about the difficulty and docked 2 points but this game has actually managed AAA status.
lol i was gonna import this a while ago never got around to it because it was always sold out on play asia then I heard it was coming to the u.s. and also ordered a collectors edition =)
