Gamespot Platform awards are weird when comparing to sales.

can sum1 tell me wtf demon souls iis?

its a great game that you shouldn't miss.

I dunno bro, be careful recommending that game to everyone. People who aren't into punishing difficulty might shy away.

everyone starts getting good at games from scratch right?

i dont really see why people would not buy a game for its difficulty, your a gamer you get better with time.

I'm sorry, but that's not right. Some games are more challenging than the average gamer would care to undertake. Especially Demon's Souls where the actual point of the game is simply to beat the unbelievable challenge and be proud of your accomplishment. Many gamers do, and should choose their games based on its difficulty, because if a game is too difficuly, they may never beat it.

Saying that, "Oh you'll get better at it, so don't worry about the difficulty" and applying that to every game ever released, isn't something that any gamer should be prepared to do. If you recommend it, I recommend at least mentioning the difficulty or you'll have a lot of pissed off friends.

you know? Casual gamers used to play very very hard games much harder than Demon's souls ever be , on the NES/SNES , but who complained? no one.

games should be atleast challenging and not a long assed toturial level.
