[PS3] Demon's Souls - So the world might be mended. So the world might be mended. So the wo

If it doesn't get announced for the US at E3, I'll probably import this. However, it's pretty damn expensive. Not impressed by the price at all, and it seems unlikely to drop as the regular stores are out of stock, and ebay is the main place to get it now.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Import copies cost an arm and a leg. I bet the American copy will be cheaper. I'm very interested, but waiting for the US release. Incidentally, there's a thread by Gech about this already.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Of course, the reason people play with a DM like that is because he plays hard but mostly fair, and when you eventually defeat all his tricks, the sense of satisfaction is enormous.

Therein lies the appeal I see in this game. Once my damn copy eventually crosses that wide Atlantic ocean, I'll find out if I'm right.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I got my copy. So far all I did was get killed by the tutorial boss, and end up in the Nexus as a disembodied soul. Shortly I'll be making an attempt at a real level.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
