but isn't alan wake a little bit of more value for me though. At gamestop Alan Wake is $50 and dem souls is $40. I am actually getting one of these game as a present so shouldn't i go for the more expensive one?


who is the present for yourself or  a friend??

demon souls = potential 200hr game

alan wake = 10hr potential game depending on how you play it

so to me it's obvious alan wake = rent

demon souls = buy



it's the future of handheld

well actually it's easy to decide:

if after reading this article http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=25238 you are completely blown away and want Demon's Souls asap then go get it

 if not (even if you are mildly interested) you better go for Alan Wake

I haven't played or even wanted to play Demon Souls (just not my type of game) but Alan Wake is one of those BIG games.  Not "big" in length, but it's one of those games that you only experience a few times in a generation --like Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, Batman AA, Resident Evil, or Gears of War 2.  The experience is beautiful and polished and it'll remind you of why you love gaming.

I hear Demon Souls is a great game for its audience so whatever you buy, buy with confidence!

Haven't played Alan Wake, but Demon's Souls is pretty much my game of this generation, and I have played a lot of games from pretty much all consoles, handhelds and PC.

Demon's Souls is an experience of a life time.

Demon's Souls!

After reading some of the posts in this thread, I'm considering buying Demon Souls tomorrow.  If this game sucks then, so help me, you shall ALL feel my wrath!

A quick glance at Wikipedia shows that, in Demon's Souls, I can customize my character.  Now, on a scale of 1-10, how slutty can I make her look?   If I can make her look really slutty, I'm buying it.  If she can only look moderately slutty, I'm not so sure if I want to play it.

Well, if you either find very important protective plate mail or a half naked chick being killed every 5 minutes then go for it.

Half naked, it is!!

*edit* After further research, it seems like Dragon Age Origins is more my speed.  Demon's Souls looks like it's a really frustrating experience.
