In reply to Brian Goodman. The story isn't the strong point of this game, the gameplay and the atmosphere is. So just play dark souls. But don't be casual about this game. Invest your time in it and be patient.

This is one of the best games ever made. And reason why it’s so great is the hard difficulty. Because when you beat a hard boss or get to the next bonfire, that feeling is indescribably amazing. But one thing that makes this game easier in a good way is when you learn to parry. But because of that, the last boss was disapointing. He was awesome, but wayyyy too easy for the last boss.

There is a better glitch to level up. Some bosses when killed drop items that you can use and they give you souls. I just killed the big wolf and he drops one called the soul of sif. What you do is if you are a male character select the item so you can use it with the square button on PS3, or X on Xbox. Then do a roll and in mid roll press B to use the item and immediately bring up your menu and go to your inventory and use the estus flask from the menu. A message will come up and say do you wish to use soul of sif yes/no. Pick yes and you get an immediate 16000 souls. This does not waste the item either. It works with any item that when used make you choose yes/no, so homeward bones, and fire keeper souls can be used infinitely.

Great review Mike, I might have to check this out. Should I play the first game first, or can I go directley to Dark Souls? Again, great review.

Did you ever beat this game?
And now that Dark Souls 2 is out have you tried that? It would be cool to see a review on it. 😀

Not only is it a great game but you missed alot of the systems e.g summoning other players or npcs to help you during boss fights. That scary knight guy you ran into was one of them and if you do his “side story/quest” he can help you beat the last boss aswell as many other tough bosses.

Don’t know if you figured this out yet, but wield the ZweiHander with 2 hands, might get better that way.

nice vid mike.
dark souls is a great game i actually like the open world feature as opposed to demons souls. you can go from one area to another without loading screens. each area in demons souls had to load.
after the first playthrough this game gets easier for you, being that you already leveled up and upgraded weapons/armor.

Hey Mike, you should do a review on Bioshock 1 or the new one.

My friends have been trying to get me to play this game for a while now. I just don’t have the patience, nor the time to dedicate to a game like this. Still, looks like a lot of fun and frustration just like those good ol’ Nintendo days.
