  • Bleak sadistic dank dark difficult beautiful pure gaming hell.
    Dark Souls. videogaming excellence.

    2 hours in and I'm lonely and scared, hollow and dead, hating it and loving it.

    IGN review (Insightful reviewer)
    9.5 Presentation
    The creature and environment design is incomparable, confidently spanning the extremes between disgusting, horrific, majestic and desolately beautiful.
    9.0 Graphics
    Occasional slow-down in busy areas is not enough to take the sheen off this world.
    9.5 Sound
    Dark Souls' sound design is astounding, from the beating of mighty wings to the atmospheric drip-drip-drip of a dank sewer.
    9.0 Gameplay
    Tight, exciting combat is a the core of brutally fair design that only occasionally crosses the line.
    9.5 Lasting Appeal
    There are at least 60 hours in the first playthrough, with plenty more in exploration and experimentation.
