Guys I've found an awesome glitch!

When you die, power off the PS3. When you load the game, you'll start where you died and still have the souls you've gathered!

It has saved me so many souls and I've yet to lose my body!

I would not follow this advice at all.

There are many reports of people that followed that advice and corrupted their game save ( because when you die the game start saving and you should not quit the game when that happens..)

To be honest any sort of computer system is at risk if you interrupt hard disk read/writes. Your entire hard disk sectors could get corrupted. Forgive me if I am wrong but I really think you are putting your hardware at risk if you shut it down in the middle of disk writes, Hatmoza.

Most people that use that glitch actually just quit the game with the PS button as soon as they die..

Shutting off the PS3 in terms of damaging your saves is probably even worse..
