Well I bought Demon Souls last month thinking I would love the game since so many others said it was freaking amazing. I tried it for a few hours and didn't get into it so I threw it aside and had already made up my mind on selling it.

Last week I decided I should try Demon Souls one more time before making a final decision to sell it. I had some spare time on my hands a couple days ago and put in the disc without much enthusiasm.

After going through the main menu and loading up my character I remembered that I had killed all the "good guys" in the Nexus...Whoops! I continued on None the less.

-SKIP DETAILS OF A 2 HOUR PLAY SESSION-

And there I was! Removing the Demon Souls ad from my local ad site. I now have 2 characters, my level 26 main who has no allies because I decided it would be fun to kill them and my level 7 Magician who I'm slowly starting to get into.

Just thought I should tell the world, haha. Demon Souls is actually a good game once you give it time and get used to it's harsh gameplay.

A bit late, and it should be blogged. And news flash: killing NPCs who sell you items and keep your stuff shouldn't be killed.:|

How is this a suprise? Everyone should know by now how awesome Demon's Souls is. Heck, even GS pulled their head out of their butt long enough to give it the GOTY.

This game is amazing, I'm playin' NG+ now, almost 70hs of gameplay.

I bought it a month ago and it never dissapointed me, but man, this game is going to test your patience because when you die, and die again and you don't get you previous souls back... just play it with something to unleash your fury next to you, or your controller will not survive.

Anyway this game is just as hard as rewarding, but it's not for pampered players :P

Ive picked it up numerous time, and this time i got to lvl 20... and i still don't like it.. its a great concept and the challenge is more than adequate, but it doesnt make me want to keep playing. I personally think that it is overrated b/c the ps3 desperately needed a decent rpg.

I'm aware this is blog material and I did post it on my blog but I don't bother with finding people to read them so I thought I would just post it here. I live in Canada and the game did come out a while ago but I got my Playstation not long ago which is the reason why I haven't played it till now.

I honestly find the game more fun as long as I keep moving. Sure I die a billion times but there is always something after that that will get your attention. I mainly just posted this to get the opinions of other and perhaps some tips although it is my fault for not specifying that on my original post.

Well, if it won GS GOTY 2009 then it must be an amazing game. Considering there was UC2, Forza 3 and MW2 released the same year.
