Around this time last week I couldn't anywhere in system wars with hearing about how cool Demons Souls is, now all I hear is how cool Dragon Age is on the PS3. What gives, did everyone who bought Demon's Souls trade it in for Dragon Age? Where did the love for Demon's Soul go? And while I'm at it, how would you compared the two? Which one is the better buy?

also, it's a multiplat, which makes people tend to agree more than bashing it for being an exclusive.

I don't see why people keep on trying to make Demon's Souls face off against Dragon Age.

Isn't Demons Souls basically a console version of Diablo? Because Dragon Age is a full-blown RPG and not an action-adventure game with minor RPG elements. Hard to compare the two.

No, just because Demon's Souls is also a action dungeon crawler doesn't make it a Diablo clone.

Demon's Souls has been around for how many weeks now? I'm not surprised that the focus shift. If anything, I expected it given how fast console gamers shift focus from one game to the next.

It's funny, you say shadowed and I say that I'm going to buy a PS3 this holiday solely for Demon's Souls. It's just a matter of perspective.

It's more like Demon's souls slightly overshadowed dragon age really. Did you notice a massive marketing boost for dragon age just when demon's souls was releasing?

Dragon Age Origins if you like traditional, story based WRPG.

Demons Souls if you love hack n' slashers (though it's certainly not a button masher).

I agree with you that console gamers shift focus fromm game A to game B more frequently than PC gamers. Look how many PC gamers still play original Counter Strike, Diablo 2, etc

I haven't played Dragon Age yet, but I plan on getting it soon. Demons Souls is very cool though, I'd highly recommend it. It's got really great gameplay. I find it really hard to put the controller down, it's one of those games that you keep wanting to do just one more thing. Of course then you die

I'm pumped. It's going to be my mighty RPG bridge between Dragon Age and Mass Effect 2.

I called this and a few people chuckled at me for saying it. It's all hype. Get Dragon Age and enjoy, my friend.

Dragon Age is the game that interests more people. And, it should given that it's the better game.
