Demon's Soul's

So this is my review blog about a game that I've fallen in love with, so if you don't care for video games then get out. Naw you can stay.

    The game is called Demon's Souls. Its a somewhat new game made for the PS3. The story is that some creepy ass fog has invaded this kingdom (and apparently other areas) and with it, a bunch of ugly, dumb, horrible demons. Your job is, of course, to be the hero and come out of no where and destroy all these Demon's Souls. I am sure simple and cliché come to mind when you think of this right? WRONG! This has to be on of the most difficult games made. Especially if you beat it once and play through again. Even the game developers say your supposed to die. Here is a list I've compiled of why its so hard.


                                                        Why Demon's Souls will Kick Your Ass 

• The form of currency in this game is souls. Whatever you kill  you get souls. Big demons, little demons, all kinds of demons drop souls. It's what you use to buy items, upgrade, and level up. Well that all good and dandy but when you get killed in the game (which will happen 100s of times) you lose your souls. All of them. Hope is not lost though. You can run back to where you died and pick up the souls and you get them all back. Unless of course you die again on the way back to get your souls, then they are gone forever. Goodbye 60,000 souls.
• Assuming you are fighting monsters roughly your level it really only takes 3-4 hits for a monster to kill you.
• Numerous pitfalls and traps that always kill you in one hit.
• The weapons and armor require a hefty amount of skill to use
• Boss fights, while can be glitched and taken advantage of, are extremely difficult and long
• As if the demons themselves weren't bad enough, there is the possibility of an actual player invading your world and killing you for no reason.
• Probably some other crap I can't remember

Yeah looks tough. Why even try it. Well as I said before, you are meant to die in this game. Multiple times. But what you get from this game isn't one that is forgiving or just gives you a slap on the wrist for dying. Oh no no no. Demon's Souls will test your ability as a gamer to make tough decisions and think before you act. No longer can you run in there as the bad ass, huge sword wielding, mother fucker that you are. You actually have to hide behind your shield and calculate if its actually a good idea to go that way. 

     So if you love difficult, long video games (and you actually have a PS3), then Demon's Soul's is the perfect game for you. 

Hell yes you have to fight that shit.
