    Dark Souls

    Game » consists of 14 releases. Released Sep 22, 2011

    A quasi-sequel to From Software's action-RPG Demon's Souls, set in a new universe while retaining most of the basic gameplay and the high level of challenge. It features a less-linear world, a new checkpoint system in the form of bonfires, and the unique Humanity system.

    They made a quicklook!

    They did a quick look for Demons Souls as well, this is not really surprising, I'm not really expecting a actual review because it seems Vinny is the only one playing it, and he doesn't write reviews(though I wouldn't mind if he did this time).

    It would have been ever so easy for them to just skip this 
    What makes me happy is that this automaticly means a good portion of coverage in their next podcast.

    Dude the demon's souls one was comedy gold. It is quick looks of that type that got me visiting the site in first place.

    Haters and your hating. This is cool because with Demon's Souls they didn't do the quick look until like a month after the game had been out or something ridiculous like that. This shows the are actually taking the game seriously this time at least. Also pretty sure other users have already mentioned Rorie said he is going to review it for GB.

    Eventhough it was an hour and a half, it was a good QL and really funny in parts.

    A sub only Vinny/Rorie endurance run might actually get me to give them my money too. Brad would seal the deal, he is after all the straight man/comedy relief.

    The QL basically convinced me to get the game. The question is, when?

    Right, like BlazBlue(I don't care that much for that franchise, just saying), impeccable logic you've got there.

    My point was it's not the deal the op made it out to be considering they already did one for the previous game, and the pretty cult following this game has gathered. Maybe BlazBlue has one, at least in this community the Demon's souls one seems more prominent.

    Watched the full quicklook as i got home yesterday and i have to say that Rorie has nerves of steel considering how few mistakes he made despite having to keep talking constantly.   
     
    Also him having 10 flasks saved up specially for the quicklook was a appreciated effort.
