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.
Which box art is the US one and which one you like best?
It makes you think of preparing for battlle
The full body shot of the blue knight looks absolutely the worsed of all 3, all the others are atleast somewhat nice in their own way.
(Seriously look how fat that torso is compared to his legs)
The campfire. You play a dude who can't die and is living through hell, so him having a safe moment before going back out to get destroyed over and over is kind of bittersweet.
Yep, i was pondering if saving 22 dollar was enough motivation to import and run the risk of having to wait an extra day or 2 past release but after finding out what cover art the EU limited edition would receive buying locally was not even a option.I really hate the cover art that we get in the West (#4). Incredibly generic shit. I hate looking at it.
The EU Limited edition I think looks great, but once opened, we get the same generic blue cover on the PS3 case as everyone else. It's a shame.
Makes the game looks mysterious and I have no obssesion with Physical fitness, is not like everything needs American comic book 9 heads proportion to be cool.I like the simple helmet the best .

I decided to print the cover out myself. Found a pretty hires version of the Japanese box art that I can edit.
@Buckfitches: HOW?! I'm still waiting for my own copy. Waiting very impatiently. I stroll back and forth around the house in my spare hours, ignoring phone-calls and messages from friends, girlfriend and work, my mind seemingly caught up in a maelstrom of anticipation. "Do not put Demon's Souls in, you will regret it.. Do not do it.. Remember last time."
-Flashback to "Last Time"-
"SWEETHEART, YOU NEED TO SHOWER, IT'S BEEN 3 DAYS! YOU NEED TO EAT, YOU NEED TO GO TO WORK! SWEETHEART, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! - I'll tell you what is wrong with me, PLAGUE, WOMAN! PLAGUE!"
We're not together anymore...
Either case ( I know, I know, bad pun), I think the EU Limited Edition is looking mighty fine. The front-cover with the pristine steel helm, and the dark knight mirrored in it seems very foreboding and sinister, as opposed to the other covers, which in all honesty, to me seem quite lackluster. Save for 3, ofcourse, it's just got a great sense of atmosphere to it.
@CptBedlam: Looks great, but I still think the 360 banner totally ruins it. Why oh why microsoft went with the acid-green is beyond me.

Yeah I know. But whan can I do? Something has to go up there or otherwise I would've to cut too much on the sides or stretch it too much vertically (I already did a combination of both because the dimensions of the ps3 box are different).
I edited out the other logo stuff on the bottom so at least it's a clean picture to look at.
edit: if somebody wants the Japanese PS3 cover art without the logos: http://oi53.tinypic.com/2qwdbaq.jpg
