Because I'm writting this post...oh wait...

I keep dying over and over, but I keep going back :)
Boss fights are so scary lol...once you defeat one, you're so happy haha.

Get it from flee-bay, i picked up an Asian copy for £35. great game if a little harsh. It auto detects language which is a god send.

Oh... I have lots of reasons.

1. I cannot afford to buy it.
2. I don't have a PS3, and cannot afford to buy it.
3. As far as I can tell it's not available in my country and I don't really import games.
4. The game doesn't appeal to me at all. The videos and reviews I have seen only makes the game look bad in my eyes.
5. The internet hype has turned me off the game.
6. "Difficult" is not a positive word when describing a game, as I see it.

In short, it's not even on my "Would ask a friend if I could try if he owned it" list.

Really people get a little carried away with hyping up exclusives its a normal thing this generation, and really how does 4 and 6 make you depressed/endure pain that seems like a very reasonable reaction "Man this guy doesn't want to play a game he doesn't have a lot of interest in, let me go get the razor blades and emo music out of my depression box"

OT: I got to play it yesterday, when I can find a copy I'll be sure to pick it up, I really do enjoy it though it is very brutal but not in the sense that "this is bullshit" its one of those hard games where if you die you feel its your fault and don't try to blame it on the game.

I hated Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance and this game gives me similar vibes.

Lack of a compatible system is really the only thing stopping me. It's an Atlus game, and I was tempted to preorder it anyway, but I really don't see the other required half being worth it for me any time soon.

when can i buy this in the uk.......i'll get it then........sounds right up my street
