Demons souls is a JRPG



Black Women Are The Most Beautiful Women On The Planet.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

While demon souls was made in Japan, it is western influenced to the point that it is pretty much a Westernised Role Play Game. You can not compare it to the likes of Lost Odyssey, that is all.

Also the achievement for this game isn't that great. I mean I am glad it is selling well, hell I love the game, but holding such a long and useless title isn't impressive.

...why do you guys keep wanting the JRPGs of the 'HD consoles' to compete so bad? Is this some kind of extension of the PS3/360 console wars? I mean, I don't want to throw molasses into your honey, but no PS3 or 360 JRPG will ever touch one of the basic DS or PSP RPGs.  Aside from FFXIII (which still will get beat by some DS RPGs like DQIX).



Six upcoming games you should look into:

To all the guys that are all gung ho Demon's Souls now, where were you six months ago, eh??

Stop latching onto the game just so you can whore it out in some juvenile attempt to hold it over other people's heads.

Um I know I am being a prick once again. I love this game to death but 3 million? Are you serious? It will be lucky to reach 1 million in all markets.

No.

"Demon's Souls is the best selling JRPG this generation!"

No.

"Demon's Souls has the best selling opening week for a JRPG this generation!"

No.

"Demon's Souls has the best selling opening week in America for a JRPG this generation!"

No.

"Demon's Souls has the best selling opening week in America for a JRPG on HD consoles this generation!"

Ok.

 

That's hilarious.

It's also the exact same point WOW was making... yet you and Trollian went insane on him.  What's up with that?

WoW has just been hating on it for a while, and Onyx's post was just a joke.

Which is completly irrelevent.  Points don't change based on your opinion of the person making them.

This all in all was a large failure of a thread.

I think their issue with WoW's comments involved their phrasing.  Calling the sales sad, while true in a sense, was rather unnecessary.  Given the circumstances, the game is peforming as well as one could hope.

Honestly makingmusic I wasn't exactly turned on by the gameplay videos and trailers. It is until you actually play this game that you can really fully enjoy it.

And you know what, I'm going to lock this thread. The title is misleading, which are reasonable grounds enough, but to be honest I just find the thread very annoying.
