    Sick trailer, mahn.

    And it's not even the Gamescom one, they really are cranking out trailers. I feel like NB is doing a good job publishing this, I just hope they don't pull out any nasty EA tricks on this one or Doomed Souls.

    I wish this game was called Dark's Souls. For continuity.

    If Dark Souls is anything like Demon's Souls (we ca be pretty sure that it is) then that song is completely inappropriate for Dark Souls.
     
    Also, that was a giant wolf with a sword in it's mouth.

    Not really much new here, and the music is off=putting in a fan made trailer sort of way.  Still, I appreciate how much effort is going into getting the word out on this game, especially compared to how much attention was given to Demon's Souls.  For a game where the online component is fairly key to the overall experience I'm glad lots of people are hearing about this game.

    I don't know about the music (I don't hate it as a choice) but the footage got me hyped so it's a good trailer in my books.

    I need to get off my ass and play more Demon's Souls. I feel like I've hardly started it and now this is coming out.

    The biggest game near our launch window is Gears 3, what can we do to grab some of this crowd?  Thoughts?
    How about an anachronistic youtube music video that makes no sense at all?
    Perfect.
     
    Seriously though, I'm glad they are doing some advertising.  And the enemy designs look great.

    Pretty much horrible music for a Dark Souls trailer.  Suppose they gotta try and hit a broader audience with their marketing, so I can cut em slack.  And the trailer itself was solid.

    play some online stuff, because the server will get shutdown in fall iirc, there are a lot of features which you won't experience unfortunately when the servers shut down.

    You mean like co-op and PVP? Not really interested.

    Really doesn't fit the atmosphere of the game though, does it? Sure you can cut shots of the game so it fits but for games like Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, it needs to be orchestras an such.

    I love the song they used in this trailer. "I'm all alone and the fire grows." pretty much perfectly describes this game.

    Good trailers, bad trailers, I already made up my mind about this one. This is going to purchased on day one, and it's going to cost me a few smashed controllers.
