dark souls for the 360 is a good thing, cows!

Moooooo!!!!!!

Seriously though, wth is a cow?

A PS3 fanboy.

So what is an xbox fanboy? And what does a cow have to do with the ps3?

[QUOTE="lostfan132"]

of course its a good thing, but a potential issue i see is that the 360 community just doesn't seem like the type that will buy too many copies of this kind of game. shooters yes, but hardcore hard as hell jrpg, i have my doubts. and for a game that features a very important online aspect, i get the feeling that the 360 servers will be quite dead by the end of the year. so if you have the choice i highly suggest you get the ps3 version.

Arent all RPGs so far better selling on xbox 360 (beside FF13 of course) ?

So why not this one ?

Probably because it's the spiritual successor to Demon's Souls, so it has roots and familiarity within the PS3 userbase much like FF13. Plus From Software is huge in Japan and they aren't selling the 360 version there. Also the 360 version apparently has some framerate issues so those who have the option would probably get the PS3 version.

Since when was Dark Souls ever exclusive?sakura_Ex

Apparently 360 version is exactly same as PS3 and both have the exact same framerate issues, that is from the many posts i read in GAF

Also it is a new IP, so anything goes, will probably sell best on PS3 indeed, but wont be far behind on 360

I read an article at Kotaku that mentioned some "framerate hitches" at the start for the 360 version. There has to be a difference somewhere and I assumed that was it. I agree about the sales.

Most people in GAF have the PS3 version and are reporting frame rate problems too, i suppose both versions have them

I think its great that even 360 owners will have the chance to enjoy the greatness of Dark Souls, but on the other hand, I expecet it will not sell much copies on 360, because:

1) people who like good games with deep gameplay already have PS3.

2) its not a shooter.

1) Xbox 360 has far more games with deep gameplay than PS3 though, like Mass Effect 1, Lost Odyssey etc

2) RPGs sell far better on xbox 360 than PS3 (beside FF13 of course), in fact some sell double or triple like Fallout, Oblivion and Mass Effect 2

And Fable 2-3 have sold more than 7 million copies combined !!!! So much for 360 selling only shooters

[QUOTE="The_Djoker"][QUOTE="kuraimen"] Lol, Live is more kid infested than PSN.kuraimen

[QUOTE="kuraimen"][QUOTE="The_Djoker"] It has more younger children yes because they prefer to play on a superior console. But the actual players on average are more skilled on Xbox. WilliamRLBaker

I don't think it's going to sell well on the xbox. Also if you don't have LIVE you lose a huge portion of the experience. Bread_or_Decide

Why though ?

All RPGs sell far better on 360 than PS3 (beside FF13)

[QUOTE="The_Djoker"][QUOTE="CTR360"]iam happy dark souls coming on xbox 360 kuraimen

I never understood that statement, i have yet to play with screaming kids , racists etc etc.. and ive been on live since launch.. on the other hand on psn i experienced the opposite how is that ?, and btw how is it a problem anyway, just mute or dont use mic at all cant see the problem really.. there is whiners and flamers across all platforms.. Very weak that " you say its more infested on live",, seriously get a grip

So what is an xbox fanboy? And what does a cow have to do with the ps3?

Xbox fanboy = lemming

Wii fanboy = sheep

PC fanboy = hermit

Those are common system wars terms.

Again, any proof or source for that?kuraimen

[QUOTE="CTR360"]iam happy dark souls coming on xbox 360 The_Djoker

Not sure if serious... both consoles have jerks in their communities and both consoles have equally skilled players, as far as I'm concerned.

[QUOTE="clone01"][QUOTE="kuraimen"] Again, any proof or source for that?kuraimen

I have owned a PS3 since 2008 and I haven't bought Demon Souls but was very interested in Dark Souls on the 360 but once I heard they drop party chat from the game, no way in hell will I pay for that. Not happening.

[QUOTE="kuraimen"][QUOTE="clone01"] Any proof to your statement that Live is "more infested with kids" than PSN?clone01

I'm not interested in Dark Souls. I bought Demon Souls and the game just frustrated me way to much so I never got to far. I hate the concept of "you die you start over"

This is just another stupid cows vs lemmings war. Neither group of fanboy is better then the other.

More ppl being able to play great games is allways a good thing. Just hope Dark Souls sells better on 360 than Mass Effect 2 sold on PS3!

Who said it wasn't a good thing? More platforms = more sales.

Dark Souls is going to be an amazing game... I'm almost expecting Gamespot to give it a 9.5.

It is a blog that uses another source that used tracking usage data. It is not like the blog is the source. It could explain that but it is a fact that 360 users are on a younger demographic than PS3 users.kuraimen

[QUOTE="KevinPlanet"]

[QUOTE="Deathtransit"] Sony dropped the ball on Demon's Souls and Dark Souls. They don't deserve to have it exclusive, they apparently didn't realize what a jewel it was and thought it would fail. Guess it didn't figure into their "gritty shooter" approach. They should have pushed it anyways. Demon's Souls is such a cooler name than "Dark Souls", it's a pity they couldn't use it again.Deathtransit

Do you have a link or something to verify what you just wrote?...

"Demon Souls" was not a first party game, it was a third party game published by Atlus, and the game itself was co-developed by Sony Japan Studios
