IGN must be really desperate for hits lately.

I do agree with one point, though. While Japanese developers get taken to task for not properly developing games with online functionality, From Software is the exception. They are innovating with online mechanics to add interesting twist to their games no Western developer has even approached.

I'm glad to see Dark Souls getting more exposure, but why did IGN have to support this stupid Skyrim rivalry that no one outside of gaming "journalism" even considers? It's an awful comparison.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free

Still without luck
Please post the whole article in your OP so you give IGN as few click as possible.

Otherwise, they will have won.

I feel dirty for giving them three page views on that.

All the arguments were like "Well, Skyrim does this BUT Dark Souls does THIS so, clearly, Dark Souls is better."

Also, the DLC packs for Fallout 3 and New Vegas were $10 a piece, not $15.

Not sure Dark Souls will be able to match Skyrim's open world in anyway so I dont see how they are comparable.

Atlus/From Software is trying so hard to make the game the fucking hardest game on gods forsaken planet, and they'll probably achieve it. That's not a Pro DS - Contra Skyrim argument because it's bullshit.

"What Beyond Good & Evil could learn from Beyond Good & Evil" - love that generator :D

Dark Souls is an open world in that you don't just warp to the levels from a hub any more, but yeah, it's not designed in the same way at all.

1. Atlus isn't involved at all.
2. That's not their goal either.

What does Atlus have to do with this?

Bet they found the title from Joccan's generator. Somebody here said it was pretty big on their offices.

To bad they don't seem to realize we're mocking them
