I really really want to play this game, but the only things that bugs the hell out of me is that it wont support party chat or private chat on the 360 version. It's like WTF I'm not allowed to communicate with my teammates playing co-op??? If you do join the party session it will kick you to the main menu. Just a little FYI to anyone getting the 360 version.


This is why Dark Souls should just Xxclusive to PlayStarion. Your the 1st 360 gamer to say, matter fact its the most common complaint of the Xbox crowd. Demons/Dark Souls is not coop or a Multiplayer game... its a primarily Single player game with online elements. communication/teamwork without words is a Big Theme for these games

That's a horrible reason for it to be exclusive and you know it

I think I kind of know why. Many of us 360 owners like to chat with our friends whilst we play our games, talk about the experiences we're having in the game, ect. It's not a deal breaker for me by any means but it is rather inconvenient much like not being able to pause the game.

And some people are drama queens about stuff lol and will make things a bigger deal than they really are.

It will be time again to raise my sword as a warrior. I've been trying to avoid footage mostly so far - but I can't help but enjoyably comment on its toughened difficulty... however I'll refrain from watching anything else. I'm getting it on the 7th or later though, PAL release date and all.

Tight, exciting combat is a the core of brutally fair design that only occasionally crosses the line.
