    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.

    This game has sold out everywhere.

    Man, I really wanted to grab this game today. I go to 4 stores. All sold out. I went to Harvey Norman, Gametraders, EB and JB. For those not in Australia Harvey Norman and JB are big stores. I asked about it at JB and they said they got a lot of copies in and it sold out in 24 hours. EB even has a pre-orders list for the next lot of stock! That's kinda crazy. Great news for Dark Souls. Sucks for me though. :(

    Do you guys have some sort of eBay equivelant over there? Not sure if it woudl take more time to ship than to wait for a new in-store shipment.

    Vinny would probably give you his copy if you asked nicely lol He just does not 'get it' by the sounds of it.

    But yeah, in any case, it's nice to see a game like this selling out and it gives me hope for humanity and taste.

    I hear the main reason it's selling out is because there's just not many available, the local GameStop only got 10 copies, 5 for each console.

    Greetings from Wollongong. You're better off buying the game online. It will be cheaper anyway. 
     
    I suggest: 
      
    OZgameshop: http://www.ozgameshop.com/ps3-games/dark-souls-limited-edition-game-ps3
     
    Zavvi: http://www.zavvi.com/elysium.search?searchFilters=&search=dark+souls 
     
    Both sites have free shipping as well. Delivery is usually 1 1/2 to 2 weeks.

    I rarely pre-order (maybe once every couple years) but if you didn't pre-order this (I'm sorry but) you're a moron.  
     
    It was obviously going to be hard to find, Demon's Souls was near impossible when it was released so much that I paid 79.99$ for a copy at eb which I thought was illegal but w.er
