Just played as far as the phalanx boss and loved every second of it. Despite it being old and even the devs admitting to making it remain clunky (they wanted to preserve as much of the feel of the game as possible), it actually feels sleek as hell. I thought that might be because it's 60 FPS, but nope! Scholar of the first sin was also 60 FPS and that game felt bad.

So far I think it balances the feeling of familiarity with being new and exciting all over again. I voted 86-90 because most remakes go down a notch or two (so my official prediction is 87), but hot damn this is a good game. I could see it doing 90+, just like Bloodborne.

I still think Dark Souls 1 and 3 are better games, but I won't hold that against it. This is still an absolute winner. Now if only I could get the remote play functionality to work.

Don't take it seriously, but on youtube review of this game a lot of xbox fans were saying "everybody knows Dark Souls is much better than Demon's Souls".

I don't believe xbox has anything to do with that.  Dark Souls is better than Demon Souls, which makes sense given Demon was first.  Of course From Software got better with experience.  The bosses, specifically in Dark 1 & 2, are just better designed than most of the bosses in Demon Souls.  Don't get me wrong Demon is really quite excellent, but it isn't Dark 1 nor Dark 3.  It is better than Dark 2. 

On a side note, Demon is far easier than Dark Souls, for those worried about difficulty.    

In his case certainly not and perhaps not in yours. But to enter the YT video of the technical review of Demon's Souls to say Dragon Souls is better you can bet a good amount of them were just having a case of sour grapes. Even more when they didn't had a single good word for the Demon's Souls being reviewed with all the improvements.
