Demon’s Souls was a pussycat in comparison to the fresh hell that From Software is going to put you through this October.
I think that the best bit about the video above isn’t the graphics but how punishing the game will be to the poor main character…then again, if you played any amount of the first game you already know how brutal yet rewarding the game could be. I just like how they’ve come to embrace how punishing they can be.
My favorite death in the whole thing? A giant boulder rolling over the hero. Raiders of the Lost Ark references FTW.
The epic role-playing game will be released on the Xbox 360 and PS3 platforms this fall, sometime in October…my guess would be on the 31st at 11:59 PM, or on the 25th. Either one works.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
