I dont really want to start the game until much later, i know i can beat uncharted and assassins creed and ratchet and modern warfare in a week or 2 and then i will have their online to come on and off from, but demons souls, when it comes to campaign i like to be consistent and focussed on the campaign only, but demons souls seems like it will take a while to beat due to trial and error alone

How the heck is it possible to put in 300 hours into the game already? I has only been released for all of 2 days now? I must be missing something here!

I think if you wouldve said he played the international version it would be more believable.

oo ok. Im hoping the main story takes seriously long to comnplete. I've been searching for a game that can keep me occupied for months at a time. It's getting expensive buying games every 2-3 weeks.

What is New Game +? And does anyone know roughly how many hours it would be if you're a normal gamer?

New Game + is basically you restart the game with all your stats and items but the enemies get harder and you get more souls per kill, very useful if you're trophy hunting or want to max your skills

you're referring to two games, ff13 and this, since there barely is any other game that had "6 months to a year prior to us release" MAYBE WHITE KNIGHT CHRONICLES too. but its simple. ff13 is out in japan now and we wont see it for a while because microsoft had the money to bribe the developers to make the us release for both versions in sync with one another. bs i know. demons souls had a limited release at first because their goals were short sighted and didnt think north america would care much for demons souls, they were wrong and they pushed the title across seas as fast as they could. white knight chronicles may already be out, not sure, regardless, the common denominator in all three titles is that they're all japanese games, made for japanese gamers, they get it before us for no other reason than loyalty i would say, ps3 and psp were both released in japan long before us, makes sense that they do that with games too.

Now that you mention it, maybe I should go back to playing Oblivon. I always wanted to play a caster class. Never went back to the game after I beat the main story line. Only put like 40 hours into it.

I know I know... I'm still kicking myself in the ass... They were packaging FF demo with the Final Fantasy blu-ray... could have had White Knight Chronicles too... but it didn't have anything in english on it. Seriously though.. if you're a hardcore gamer.. goto Hong Kong in June (as low as $1400 for two weeks WITH hotel included).

It's cheap.. got my Ipod touch 32GB for 150 bucks. 30 ps3 games for around $320 bucks and a PSP with 10 games for under $200. Not to mention custom made suits for like $60.

Japan is great fun too... hate Narita Airport in Tokyo though

Yeah but it would seem that all the money you saved on the cheap games and systems were offset by the $1400 plane ticket and hotel expenses. :(

Depending on when you visit HK it might be as cheap as Las Vegas or LA (ticket/hotel wise). I do know my brother was just there in late August for a week and the ticket and hotel cost was like $850. Plus depending on your International flight they normally giveout free beer or wine.. so hahahha that's always a plus.

Hong Kong is worth the trip... I'm just saying.. if you like videogames and are looking to taking a vaction.. do HK... cheap games, food, attractions... only thing that sucks... it's like a 15 hour flight.

Gamers paradise.... haha, same with Tokyo but it's a bit more expensive.
