    I can't seem to find an answer in the forums...I want to say Dave was thinking he was going to review this... 
     
     
    Any chance of the GB staff giving this a shot?  I know it's a bit late for this year, I'm sure they're up to their neck in GOTY  discussions and such, but I would really like to get the perspective of a Vinny or Brad...doesn't seem to be up the alley of Ryan or Jeff...

    Vinny's played it and talked about it on the bombcast.  Seems like he really enjoyed it.

    It would be pointless now the game has been out for months.

    @JeffGoldblum:  . . . . because games don't sell after a couple months on the market.  Everybody that was going to buy it has already bought it...

    If anyone it would be Vinny or Dave but I think they're both a bit intimidated by it. (Yes, this is a challenge!)

    I expected Vinny to review this, but I guess he never did.

    Disagreed, but this is an Atlus title we're talking about here...

    I think they were all too intimidated by it to give it a fair chance. The game really isn't that hard at all, just unforgiving if you fuck up. 
    They should do an endurance run of DS imo ;)

    Most of the crew seemed too intimidated by it though Dave and Vinny had a fleeting interest in it. I don't know if there will be one now considering its been out for months now but, then again, Endurance Run: Demon's Souls? I see potential in that.

    They missed their window. It's not really relevant anymore. Dave and Vinny still haven't beaten it, and they can't really give it a score until they do. Don't expect a review anytime soon, if at all.

    It would have been neat to see what this site would have given the game. I really love it. When I get around to finishing it, I will post a user review, most likely 5 stars.
