I hear prepare to die is coming to consoles, is it worth getting that over the original version?


Well apparently it has a LOT more content, and if you like PvP, it has an arena where you can fight other players... so it's up to you, personally I'd say wait, but that's just me...


Can that stuff be bought as DLC or would I actually have to buy that version of the game?



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Ugh what shit publisher/developer still has to use GFWL



I pray all of the extra content from prepare to die comes to consoles...and, fuck gfwl, useless game killer.



All of this, of course, is just my opinion.

Skyrim 100%'d. Dark Souls 100%'d. 
Dark Souls > Skyrim.
Halo 4 is the best damn FPS since Halo 3.
Proud pre-orderer of 2 PS4's and an Xbox One. 

Currently Playing: Dark Souls II, South Park
Playstation 4: MGS V GZ, Killzone: Shadow Fall, NBA 2k14.

gfwl almost looks like a shortened version of "godawful"

There is nothing that annoys me more than downloading a Steam game and realizing I need to open it with windows live.



Ignoring the god-awful GFWL, is the PC version worth getting? I've heard and seen some stuff regarding the graphics but that's something I can live with as long as the framerate is good. I don't have a 360 or a PS3 and won't get one anytime soon so the PC version is the only version I could get. I'd really want to try it since I've heard so much good about it (and I really want to see if it is as brutal as people say it is) but if the PC version is a broken mess I won't bother. It's quite cheap to get too, and comes with a bunch of free stuff (boxed version) and I happen to love useless free stuff that will collect dust in my closet.

The PC version thus far works great.

It's capped at 30 FPS, but it runs a lot better and looks better than the console versions.

However, what kind of PC do you have? I can't say it will work for you because I have a gaming PC, and don't want to give you false hope or mislead you.

Game runs fine for me, and the game seems promising so far. Not as hard as I expected (from all the talk I expected to be brutalised by the game as I'm not excatly the best gamer arround) so far TBH but I am still only a few hours in so I am expecting the dificulty to ramp up as I get deeper into the game. Not to say I haven't died a bunch, but I died a lot playing The Witcher 2 on hard as well.

Some Steam caps

Check out my hype threads: Cyberpunk, and The Witcher 3!

just out of interest do you play this game with mouse and key board or with a controller,infact do people play all games on PC with m & k or are there some games people like to play with a controller plugged in,just curious

Damn, this PC release triggered me to relaunch Dark Souls on my PS3.

But i am having problems with remembering where I was (other than in NG+ and Anor Londo) especially as I want to get the Platinum trophy.

This game is just so good. And it looks freaking good on consoles too, but I envy the PC guys who get 1080p, AA & AF.

Someone want to join online and gank people together?

Btw, what level is best suitable for online on consoles? (since it's been out for +6 months, on PC right now you will find more varied levels obviously). And what level is suitable for NG+ and NG++? I am SL 89.

Is our DS thread still active?

I've heard this game, like sleeping dogs k/mouse controls are aweful. However I haven't tried it. 
I generally play games from console with a controller if it isn't an FPS (Assasins Creed, Tomb Raider, Batman). but I know a lot of PC gamers who have a different opinion.


I play it with 360 pad or my dualshock, depending on what I have in the room
