"Tae K. Kim's Avatar Will had been acting a bit odd lately and we attributed it to the fact that he sits next to McKinley on a daily basis; we just assumed McKs weirdness had started to infiltrate Wills immune system. But then we realized that it was all due to his descent into the twisted, masochistic nightmare known as Demons Souls. Its sort of like dating a really hot girl whose crazy -- you know you shouldn't go anywhere near her but damn it, you really love her and you cant help but go back for more, even if you end up regretting it later. In short, you'll have a blast but youll pay a heavy price for it sooner or later."
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.
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?
Tough as nails, solid as a brick, and as annoying as a rooster at dawn—this list has it all. Here are the hardest PS3 games.
This list has nine games....
And if these are the "hardest", that's a bit alarming because I'm pretty average and I've managed to 100% more than a third of this list (Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Hard Corps Uprising, and Catherine).
maan i cant wait for this game to come out!
Too many games to pick up this fall.
I gotta go sort out my list :(
'Your inner diehard will thank you, but casual gamers should stay far, far away. You've been warned.'
lol.... reminds me of the old Ninja Gaiden Black reviews.
lower than fable 2.
so what if it's not for everyone. you rate a game based on what i tries to accomplish. if you suck at this game, your at fault -- not the game's.
if you really don't like it, then that's fine. but giving it a lower score than the inferior gayble 2 is simply unfair.
that's just BS.
if you agree, give me bubbles.
What price do you pay for playing this game that they are refering to besides the price you pay FOR the game? I don't get it... Maybe they mean that you will lose hours upon hours of your life... Oh well. Whatever.
I am kind of sick of hearing review talk about if you are a casual gamer, blah blah. There is no such a thing as a casual Ps3 gamer who read reviews! If you are reading reviews then you forfeit your right to be called a casual gamer.
IMO this game is more than an 8 but I guess the reviewer is one of these "casual" gamers he is talking about. Are they reviewing this for the casual crowd or hardcore? Maybe they should start give two scores, one for casual and one for hardcore, otherwise why bring up the casual crowd argument at all!?
Absolutely ridiculous paragraph in that teaser for the review. What price do you pay? It's a fun game, really deep, quite satisfying. That's all I know. There is no punishment or regret about it.
They give this a 4 out of 5, and they gave the totally underwhelming Ninja Blade a perfect 5? GamePro's opinions are weird.
