Sucker for Punishment: "Dark souls" to turn mild mannered gamers into foul mouthed sailors

9/29/2011

So up for release next week is “From software’s” “Dark Souls” (above) for the PS3 and Xbox 360. Everyone heard of it? Maybe not...

In case you haven’t, it’s the spiritual successor to “from software’s” masterpiece, “Demon’s souls (2009)”. And if you haven’t heard of that, then imagine a 3D dark fantasy type with the frustratingly alluring and unforgiving challenge of older Snes and Nes games. Think “Ghouls and Ghosts” your first time through and you’ll begin to get the picture.

If you don’t know what "Ghouls and Ghosts" is and you like gaming then maybe it's time you pick up a Snes, Nes or emulator for a little gaming experience you’ll wish wasn’t so addicting.

While some casual gamers (especially those accustomed to the easiness of today’s games) will get thrown off by Demon’s souls and its successor’s difficulty level, I’m fairly certain that those who could stand to push onward are sure to be provided with a source or reward, accomplishment and bragging rights worthy of the effort (It is a different gaming experience to be sure). Speaking of Hard, know anyone who’s beaten Prince of Persia for Nes? Me neither...

“Dark Souls” gets released next week and is certain to transform mild mannered gamers into foul mouthed sailors.
In the mean time – and if you’re wondering if you’ll like the kind of punishment “Dark Souls” will dish out – make for a retro gaming week end with:

1. Prince of Persia (Nes)
2. Mega Man I (Nes)
3. Zelda II: The adventure of Link (Nes)
4. Super Ghouls and Ghosts (Snes)
5. Demon’s Crest (Snes)
6. Zombies ate my neighbors (Snes)
