There is a common misconception around Demons Souls, it's not actually difficult, it's just ridiculously frustrating.
If it had normal checkpoints like any other game it wouldn't even be discussed in this sense.
WipEout Pure on PSP, now thats a difficult game, I congratulate anyone who has all gold medals in every class in that game. I'm good at WipEout (top 300 pretty much every track speed lap, top 100 in a few in HD/Fury) and even I suck at Phantom ...

Any examples? cause I can't think of any. Only 2 that even come close are Crysis 2 and BF3 and only their PC versions, and maybe Uncharted 3.
I have to agree. I am a massive fan of the GOW series and don't get me wrong GOW3 is still amazing, but it is by far story wise the worst of the 5 games.
Absolutely the best looking game on any platform imho though.
Been back there for a while.
I hope my Shep gets to bone her.
@Solid, My Miranda died :-(
I work in retail myself (not gaming sadly) and I can tell you that all store that I know of are in the middle of our worst start to a year pretty much ever.
People who don't work in an industry directly effected by the economy really don't appreciate how bad it is right now. I've heard people saying things like "oh the recession is over it's getting better now". Well I can sadly assure you that going by current high street trends, it very much is not over and...
Agreed, the first game was brilliant (and no it wasn't because there wasn't much else to play on PS3 at the time!) but the second game was rubbish. The 3rd was far better than 2 but still not as good as the first game.
Fall of Man was its own game and it was great because of that. The sequels were trying too hard, dunno if that's Insomniacs fault or Sony's. Tbh imo it seemed like Insomniac didn't really know what to do with it.
If anything...
When you put it like that it totally makes sense!
But no, I probably won't be adopting that style.
I didn't like Bully much but The Warriors was awesome.
Dude, I caught a slaughterfish once, it was an ugly mofo I tell thee!
@irep
Why don't you just buy a 320gb hdd for your current PS3? You could pick up a 320gb drive for peanuts these days.
Agreed 100%
whoa mama!

For me it's not just about the graphics, it's more about games running better i.e 60fps+, no screen tearing etc.
I mean seriously, try playing F1 2011 on PS3 then again on a good gaming PC, it's a completely different game performance wise. Is it even 20fps on the PS3!? No racing game should ever be less than 60fps imho.
Shame cause it is a good article and one I feel more console only gamers should read.
@hiredhelp
THQ games are now available on Origin too and more will follow if it gets big.
I don't really mind Origin it does a few things better than Steam imho. Like install location can be changed for a start! It downloads and installs all in one swoop, no need for a million VCredist packages either like Steam plus a few other things. But on the whole Steam, for now, is still a better service.
So I do think it has promise but at the mo...
Not so much the gamers but the games media. All we get these days is doom and gloom, glass half empty articles.
Amnesia: The Dark Descent is by far and away the scariest game I have ever played. I actually squeeled like a girl on many occasions throughout the game!
Is nothing safe from an FPS remake!?
