Demon's Souls (Black Phantom Edition) User Review
Challenging to the point you think it's broken.

- Difficulty:
- Very Hard
- Time Spent:
- 40 to 100 Hours
- The Bottom Line:
- "Old-school"
Prepare to die. Alot.
Great graphics. Great sound effects. Great online gameplay.
Hints left behind by players who have gone before you.
Either in writing or in bloodstains.
This game has a lot going for.
But there are technical issues here that are (besides you) dying to be addressed.
The targeting for instance. You stand at a certain angle
and the targeting goes haywire along with your viewpoint.
Granted, this is a minor issue concerning the large amount of games that
at any certain given angle goes berserk.
But in a game in which every move can end in your demise, this 'minor' issue
is simply unforgivable.
Adding this kind of frustration to a game that already borders
between extremely challenging and impossible to complete is, well, sloppy.
It waters down any kind of experience you wish to instill onto the
gamer earning this game a front seat in the bargain, correction garbage bin.
