do we know how the 360 port is yet?

i'm torn; face a potential bad port or miss out on the multiplayer (again - i imported demon's and uk-asia was bad) as psn has never really worked out for me

[negativedge]

well, I pre-ordered the 360 version, so it better be pretty good.

[mauve]

Japan isn't getting a 360 version, so we don't really know from them yet.

The PS3 version is having sporadic freezing every few hours, and From is working on a fix apparently.

something about a freezing bug? Something that will probably be addressed by the time we get the release. Day 1 patch or whatever. Doesn't seem like that big of a deal any wades.

Guess you'll just have stab their lungs. How have the reviews been? Spoiler-free as possible please? (I won't get to play this until Christmas, even though I've preordered a copy)

Right, so apparently the game features scythes, whips, one hit kill flying guillotines and grim reaper cloaks all as items you can equip.

So tempted to either make a Belmont build or base one on this dude.

Advance warning to 360 players: you won't be able to read others' messages or have Phantoms invade the game without a Gold account.

BF3 and Dark Souls means my whole next year in gaming is set. Thankfully there's 3 weeks between their releases and since I moved, I probably won't have my finances in order to afford internet and new videocard soon enough to play the BF3 beta. So Dark Souls is going to get 2 or 3 full weeks of TLC from me.

here's a gallery of in game shots of the shield contest winners:

Lower-res textures my ass, the PS3 has less VRAM, they wouldn't have that many high res textures to begin with.

Thank you, Halo: Reach, for allowing me to mute people by default.

Has there been any 360 footage or screenies to see whether it's that big a deal visually?

Oh god that video hahaha

I hope that exit spell character animation is both unescapable and unflinchable.

Someone describe that video to me, I'm completely avoiding all footage of the game.

[spectralsound]

guy is using a spell that essentially turns him into a chameleon, resembling statues and pots and shit

he's also wearing what looks to be the head of that boar from the E3 demo (shades of Monster Hunter?)

my god why are those other games even bothering

go home, Skyrim

haha, the common sentiment seems to be that this is a "filler game" for before skyrim

[DJ]

Why do people keep comparing this game and Skyrim.

It's like comparing Ninja Gaiden to Modern Warfare 3. They both have guys with guns in them. That's about where the similarity stops.

I would rather the comparison not get made at all and we can just roll with the whole "different genres exist in videogames and that's okay" sentiment. Just because one game has a medieval dude with a sword and another game also has a medieval dude with a sword does not mean the games are similar or that stacking them against each other has a whole lot of critical merit.
