New Dark Souls trailer - out in October

Namco Bandai released a new trailer for Dark Souls.

[NYC_Gamer]

finally a new game that will challenge us instead of holding our hand

[rdgneoz3]

Let the masochistic fun begin!

[RedDead]

Game is sure to be atleast in the top 3 Rpg's of this year, anyway the video ain't working for me :(

Holy shi*....Strong contended for my Goty just like the first, has alot of competition this time though.

[SixTwoTwo]

Yeah this along with Skyrim will make it an awesome holiday for RPGamers and a nightmare for students :)

[Chewy102]

I just hope that it stays a challenge. Once you learned where mobs are in Demon's Souls it becomes rather easy (opinion). Bosses on the other hand always kept their challenge, minus those few that had a god spot or could be sniped.

[Scyrus]

EPIC!!!!! My GOTY for 2011!!!

I like how people disagree with thats "MY" Goty, I didn't say it was anyone else's, MINE!!!!, trolls we all know COD is your game of the year

[elbeasto86]

haha kinda like how people disagree with my desire to finish Demon's Souls first. :P

[flyingmunky]

I'm going to steal your GOTY and make it mine! Mwa ha!

[Kee]

Well I'm gonna steal YOUR GOTY and play the shit out of it because game of the year or not, it'll be freaking amazing!

Other than that, I would like to point out the two phantoms running towards the boss at the end of the trailer. One of them will be me. haha

[MagicAccent]

If it's anything like Demon's Souls, but an improved version.
Then it wont be just your goty, let me tell you.

[-Alpha]

My GOTY 2009, and the strongest contender for my GOTY 2011

[DelbertGrady]

Looks promising.

[elbeasto86]

Well... looks like I'll have to get started on Demon's Souls, finish that first.
Edit: What's up with the disagrees? Should I just jump into Dark Souls?

[blahblah]

lol, for gods sake, no. if you like hardcore rpg genre, you'll have a ride of your life

they are different games so demon's souls is not requirement for dark souls. then again, demon's souls is just too awesome to pass by. just wait until PSN is back. playing demon's souls offline is the same as licking ice cream trough the glass. invasions and invading are 99% of fun even though single player alone is one of best games ever

disagrees are probably either angry ps3 fanboys because game went cross platform and trying to discredit dark souls (just read how some people claim they won't play dark souls since it isn't demon's souls) or envious xbots trying to discredit demon's souls since they can't have it. real gamers will play it because it retains same formula

in my case, demon's souls is best game of this gen. and dark souls fixing most of my gripes with demon's souls can only be better.

- retaining the game play/feel of demon's souls
- they promised new game is even harder, but retains fair factor which made ds so great. you could beat NG+++ at level 1 and never die since everything in game is avoidable. you just have to be carefull
- it is open world now
- retained same online game play
- weight actually plays major factor in speed (my biggest gripe with ds)
- classes are different when leveled up, in ds they were the same after few levels, making game less versatile
- now P2P which means waaaaaaaay less lag than PSN dedicated servers in ds since it avoids double mileage for data. now host and invader play directly without network roundtrips
- hopefully they removed static damage spells (the cursed+strength and no speed penalty was the only cheap thing this game had, game was flooded with n00bs playing with ToB+cursed+badass sword/axe with knock down)

[elbeasto86]

hahaha damn dude, did I hit a nerve or something? Regardless I started playing tonight and I just beat the Phalanx. I really like the game, it's just that shit can get nerve wreaking. :S

[Giru017]

Can't wait, it's gonna be awesome to feel that thrill from my first DS playthrough once again.

[ExposingLames]

i LOVED demons souls and i cant wait for this but ATLUS games gave demons souls its chance and had faith in it and are the reason we got it in USA they should have left them in the loop, its not right turning their back on them and getting another publisher tho.

[CinderellaMan]

waiting for this game also with the cursed crusade

[chaos999]

OMG

[liviticus]

Any xbox gamers who havent played demon souls make this a day 1 purchase, of all the PS3 exclusives this is the one I keep going back to.

[Crystallis]

There is just too many games.

[slinky123456]

Looks exactly like Demons Souls... Me Happy :)

[rabidpancakeburglar]

From the headline I had thought that the new trailer was out in october and I was like WHAT?!. Thank god that's not the case, looks great and I'm wondering how fighting that giant guy would work out

[MidnytRain]

There's a dash in the headline. It is not a single thought.

[rabidpancakeburglar]

I know but that was my first thought when I just saw it because I only skimmed it while checking articles

[Blitz001]

Speachless.

[KonohagakureFC]

October seems so far away :(

[PhoenixDevil]

Cannot wait :D been replaying Demons Souls and am so close to the platinum after that the slow few months wait for Dark Souls. Bring it on :D

[KeiserSosay4788]

I NEVER watch trailers more than once by myself. EVER...But that trailer...oh my god dude. I loved Demon's Souls soooo much because it made you work for it. I am going to buy this game Day 1. Day F**KING ONE.

[Tex117]

Demon's Souls is my favorite game of this generation and top 10 of all time.

If Dark Souls can improve on Demon's Souls, then this game could be in the running for my favorite game of all time.

(I've been playing since the 80's so thats alot of games).

Is it good enough to join the ranks of FFVI, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Suikoden II?

[Der_Kommandant]

I'm ready to suffer!

[sasuke99]

the game will launch here first...
