Loving it soooo much right now…so much I'm almost annoyed that Battlefield 3 just dropped through the mailbox.

After not being able to play much recently managed to get a few hours in yesterday and in one sitting managed to dispatch the Hellkite/bridge dragon (no glitching, pure melee), the Black Knight on the tower above said dragon, the Bell Gargoyles (summoned the Sun Knight and kicked butt on my first attempt!) and the Capra Demon (again on my first go!).

So now I've cleared out the Undead Burg & Parish (except for Havel the Rock – will deal with him later) and am about to head on down to the Depths.

Awe inspiring game.

I am glad I got this.

Today I managed to take the Taurus Demon down on my first go.  I felt great.  I walked along the bridge and out smarted the Dragon.  I was on a roll, who ever said this game was hard?

I smashed through a skelly or two without any trouble, and bumped into some rats.  Seconds later I was poisoned and running around like a screaming loon looking for a bonfire (I have read that it cures poison.)  I never did find the fire, but did find a big black knight on the top of a tower.  He laughed at me and my impressive train, and twatted me.

3,500 souls I'll never see again.  Bloody game.

Demon's Souls was delivered today as well.  So now I can have some hardcore action in my bed!

Get it after the glut.  I don't think it will be going anywhere.  Players will drop off obviously, but I think the kind of person this appeals to will be in it for the long haul.

Booting up the PS3 version of Demon's Souls, I was surprised to find it a lot busier than Dark Souls.  Maybe I should have bought that version?  Hmm.

Gears 3 will be added to my collection Friday, and Skyrim on the 11th.  That'll be it for me this side of Christmas.

I'm around lvl 35 and just met the Gaping Dragon boss…WTF!!!

Still loving it and looking forward to kicking his slimey behind.

My only problem is that I find I need at least 2 to 3 hours at a time to play it – can't just boot it up for an hour, need to immerse.  Finding that time with work and a young daughter (not to mention Forza & BF3) is proving quite a challenge.

Completely with you there, have barely put a few hours in since picking it up as I just can't face dropping in for 30 min – hour, it deserves more respect than that.  With rugrats around, any free time I have for games usually sees me getting shot in the face in BF or kicking the pig bladder around in Fifa.

Has anyone got a decent link to a weapon leveling tutorial or something.  I still don't get it, even after demon's souls…I feeel like such a failure.

I don't understand the leveling at all.  +1 through +5 and then…what?  Arrgghh!  Head hurts!

Just running around with my drake Sword atm.

Just getting started on Dark Souls…. soooooo the Asylum Demon is the hardest boss in the game right? 

Evil curse froggies.

Yes they are also pretty easy to kill.  They don't have a damaging attack at all.  They burp a gas that builds up your curse really quickly.  Don't let them trap you in a corner and you should be ok.

The same thing happened to me!

DS is having a rest right now.  I don't want to do Blighttown, so I am giving the MH series some love.

Jolly cooperation.

Worked for me after my 4th try alone.
