Yes. PC ports are almost always superior, and I already traded in the console game months ago.

Fuck yea.

Like others I am going to avoid it as a Day 1 purchase and wait for some testimonials first. I want to see how it runs and also how it controls. I don't have a gamepad for my PC and don't really care to get one, if this game controls as poor with KB+M as I think it will I will probably skip it and stick to my PS3 copy.

Probably stick with the PS3 version. After 100 hrs all the framerate issues don't bother me like they use to. The game looks sweet on my HDTV and I have even grown use to the save system. I am really more of a PC gamer than console guy, but in this case the PS3 is fine with me. When I am ready for more Dark Souls I will just download the new content to my PS3 and call it good.

ill just get the dlc when it comes out

@Jumbs: can get it at the original price on steam still , just via green man gaming .. http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/au/en/pc/games/action/dark-souls-prepare-die-edition-na/

hopefully they will learn with their stupid price hikes .. waiting to see if they are bastards and jack up the price of hitman absolution .. currently pretty cheap for us aussies

I pre-ordered as soon as it was up on steam a while ago, i've sunk hundreds of hours into the 360 version and want to support them in bringing it to the PC even if it is a bad port. My hope is that the next Souls game comes out on the PC at launch and is better.

I have the PS3 version and I was seriously considering buying it for PC for the higher frame-rate and resolution, since I've just bought a gaming PC. However, this Eurogamer preview put me right off.

There is bad news which could hit PC gamers pretty hit hard, though. While the frame-rate's rough edges have been filed down, you're still going to be playing at 30FPS out of the box, as widely rumoured. A graphics menu has been added in, but there are no obvious ways to raise the bar to the preferable 60FPS mark. In fact, options are pretty meagre overall on this front; you have the standard resolution and refresh rate settings (it does nothing to solve this), and also check-boxes to remove anti aliasing or motion blur. Barebones and to the point.

There's also something curious about the resolution too in that there's no change in clarity when attempting to crank up the settings. On close inspection, it appears that Dark Souls PC uses the very same 1024x720 internal framebuffer as the console versions, regardless of which resolution has been set in the menus. The option provided is for output resolution only; a simple courtesy to allow the game to play on most monitors, but the image quality will always remain the same. In short, PC gamers will very much be getting the genuine console experience here, right down to the pixel.
