Agreed, his progress is so slow, you'll only be watching a single segment. Although he has gotten past the graveyard from earlier.Urban Scholar

Poor guy, he is literally being constantly raped. So as I see there's no spirit form, you just lose your humanity and become a zombie?
Also seems like 360 version has higher load times and missing some lightning and so...

Watching him chipping away at skeletons with a hand axe is disgraceful. I approve this stream.

Maybe thinks he needs to roll faster. Honestly I may end up trying different configs to achieve this... How dumb of me!darkwing said:

It's amazing how a few people seem to be wishing this to be true, when it won't be the case. The vast majority of games have better load times on 360 vs PS3, which is probably the only factor a DVD9 has over a BR disk, as been mentioned already. Just because this is lead on PS3 doesn't mean it'll effect 360 load times; look at FFXIII or L.A. Noire (something I would honestly expect a lead version to have ia slightly better visuals and it seems both versions are identical regarding that from gameplay). And those have multiple disks, which reminds me:
An early importer from GAF said the back of the PS3 box mentions the game is less than 7 gigs, which honestly is surprising to me.
That said, 360 version was most likely not installed vs installed PS3 version. It's not a fair comparison and I bet my account that 360 version won't have 40second load times. Anyone wanna bet theirs?
Also, has anyone come to a conclusion why the game was crashing so much on stream? Haven't been in the topic since yesterday and on a crappy phone atm.

We won't know until we have both copies available. However footage of the 360 version does show some pretty long load times. Stream footage also shows relatively less load time, so it's tough to say right now.Infamous Chris said:It's amazing how a few people seem to be wishing this to be true, when it won't be the case.

No word on the freezing, could be just a fluke. Someone in here mentioned launch ps3 maybe being an issue? Also wotter (I think that is the spelling, I apologize if it's wrong) has said no such crash happened to him and he is reviewing it.
Time will tell

I was watching an archive of the stream last night and while skipping around I saw the stream fight a
boss. Stuff of nightmares
Anyway whats the penalty for dieing? I thought I read in here you lose humanity and turn into a corpse but I didn't see anything like that in the stream (then again I was skipping around) and there nothing in the OP about it
messed up dragon without a head / the whole body is the mouth

That's because they are wearing armor. Remove it and there's not-so-pretty stuff underneath.

Are there health bars on enemies? I didn't see one over the skeleton he was fighting.

Weird, I guess I just didn't notice. I was looking for it while he was fighting that skeleton but I never saw one.Joe Shlabotnik said:

So the official abbreviations are DeSo and DkS? Haha
I always called DeSo "DS" and DkS "DS2."

I think Skeletons are a special case, because they revive. Not certain though.

All dual systems games there is always one system that looks slightly better (but barely noticeable). Of course the lead development platform is going to be the superior version but the differences between the two will be negligible.
