Dark Souls 2 (PC/PS4/XB1/PS3/360)

I hate using the ps3's analog, so xbox controller is what I use for dark souls. The wireless receiver is really good as well.

All of this makes me want to play Demon's souls, and i don't have a ps3 :[

**Charismatic** · 2013-04-12 16:50

Well, getting one is the only choice you have so...

**Hiryo** · 2013-04-12 18:10

Especially since its free on PS+ right now

So goddamn sexy.

Kinda looks like Lord Gwyn in the Kiln of the First Flame.

yeah it does but Dark Souls never puts you in a specific character role

**Hank** · 2013-04-12 21:04

I'm just sayin'

hoping they keep it that way. I hope they give us even more customization capability as far as graphics go in the PC version. I really wish the PS3/360 versions were kicked over to the next gen consoles, that way maybe we would get an extremely badass version on PC rather than keeping it more close to the consoles (I know the PC version is the lead platform, but the graphics probably won't be that durastic from PC > Consoles other than maybe resolution changes and texture resolution)

I'd kill to have DS2 look as visually pleasing as the new Tomb Raider on PC

Gotta understand though that putting a game on a new system is a risk in itself especially when it's likely to be one of Sony's ridiculous prices. I don't disagree with what you're saying though.

**Jaxzer** · 2013-04-13 10:13

If Sony really wants to wow people at E3 they could announce next gen ports of all these fall releases. This is day 1 either way.

Announcing a bunch of games that you can get without having to spend 400-500 dollars likely isnt going to do a lot for moving units.

me too, Tomb Raider graphics were amazing, felt like a step up in gaming

**LeahaS** · 2013-04-14 16:03

Aside from the graphics though, did it turn out to be a good game? Not short? I do want to try it, but have so much on my plate.

**Cichy** · 2013-04-14 16:51

^it was very good, if I was you I'd wait for the summer sale to buy it though. I'm sure steam will have it for 20-30

Namco played it safe with the original Dark Souls marketing budget, and with good reason - this, after all, is the game that takes pride in being inaccessible. According to PR director Lee Kirton, however, the publisher has no qualms about blowing the bank on Dark Souls 2.

"The good thing this time round is we're investing more in it from a marketing perspective," Kirton told OXM at a preview event in London today. "With Dark Souls and [PS3-exclusive spiritual predecessor] Demon Souls it was very focused, small-scale. We're treating this as a massive, massive triple-A title."

"We're going to go guns-blazing with it, and hope to God that it works," he continued. "We're going after people who love and adore Dark Souls, while hopefully widening the net a little. I'm not saying that every Skyrim player's going to be jumping on Dark Souls, but it would be nice if some of them did. It's a different game, sure."
Aoife says that Dark Souls 2 is considerably tougher than the original - her recent feature suggests that the time-honoured aphorism "the only good dragon is a dead dragon" doesn't always hold water.

Rather amusingly/unnervingly, alternative titles for Dark Souls once proposed by developer From Software include "Dark Race" and "Dark Ring" - thanks to CVG for the insight there.

Here's a 12 minute gameplay demo. Go on, lose yourself. And look out for more thoughts from me soonish.
