If you have the option RENT Dark Souls first. Demon Souls has a very loud, very loyal community that is always looking for new converts. That being said, as many people dislike the game as like it. You really should try and find out which one you are before throwing 60 bucks at it. Assuming, that is, you're a normal human being with a budget.

I'd do the complete opposite actually. Since he said he liked Demon's Souls he should buy Dark Souls - it is a game which he will play for hours and hours and come back to it whenever he is game hungry. Rage on the other hand is just an FPS which, once completed, doesn't have that much replay value and it doesn't even have multiplayer (correct me if I'm wrong).

Yeah there is multiplayer, not sure what it involves though... I'm not a huge multiplayer anyway, but I do like what Dark Souls (and Demon's Souls) is doing with multiplayer. Those hints are mad helpful, even if they are sort of cheating a bit :P

Thanks for the input, guys! I think I will go and buy Dark Souls in the morning :D

As I said, I played Demon's Souls and I loved it. So I know what Dark Souls is all about. Good point though, I would definitely do that if I didn't know what it was like!

So far I'm leaning towards Dark Souls I think. It looks like I'll get more out of my buck than I would with Rage. That's not to say I won't be getting rage. I will definitely be getting Rage! Just later on I think. If anyone thinks otherwise, now's the time to speak out! I'm still keen to hear your opinions :D

Rage is not like Borderlands at all, based on your post I'd go with Dark Souls.

Yeah, I know it's not like Borderlands... I just really liked that game and this looks like another good post-apocalyptic looking shooter type thingy. But yeah I totally realize it's not the same. Bad example :P

Get Dark Souls. Rage seems to still have a few bugs that are being ironed out so its probably best you wait a month before picking it up.

Oh yeah? What sort of bugs? I remember hearing about the pop-in etc from watching the quick look, is there something else wrong with it?

So I'm going to go and buy either Dark Souls or Rage tomorrow but I'm not sure which just yet... In the long-run, I'll get both but just can't decide which to go for first..! What do you guys reckon?

I've watched both quick looks and they both look fantastic! I've played Demon's Souls but didn't get very far (was using my flat-mate's PS3 as I only have an Xbox 360, he wanted it back so I couldn't play too much of it) and I loved it. From Software have really nailed it in terms of depth and interesting....ness. The difficulty is appealing to me as I find a lot of games nowadays are either too short or just too easy.. However, I am a HUGE fan of borderlands and I love a good shooter (I know Rage doesn't have many RPG elements at all, but I just love that sort of quest based shooter type thing), and I really admire Id Software's other titles. So not sure what to go for first..

Sorry for the long ass post! Just thought I'd throw in my thoughts on each game so you can see where I'm coming from. Let me know what you think!

Cheers! :D
