Demon's Souls on Amazon: $30 Deluxe Edition, $20 Greatest Hits

I'm sorry if this was already mentioned, but when do they shut down the servers? I'm trying to get my friend to get it as well for online purposes, but forget it if it's going to be shut down soon.
 
Do the enemies auto-level up as well(hate that shit) or can I grind like a mofo and become pretty godlike early on?

March
 
Just so people know unless you have a free shipping code or something for amazon, the "deluxe edition" is really only ~5 dollars more than the standard when you take into account shipping.
 
What, there is no 'for sure' date when they're shutting down the servers. The servers are guaranteed to be up through March of 2011 and they'll re-evaluate whether they want to keep them up after that.
 
I want to get this, but I hate the Greatest Hits box. I might check my local Gamestop for a used copy with the original case tomorrow, and if it's more than $20, I'll bite the bullet and get the shitty red box.

if you grind for a long time you can be pretty godlike. but then NG+ evens it up again

Just curious, why do people care what the GH box looks like?

Because my games aren't hidden, the holders (along with ones that hold dvds) are mounted on the wall. They're just an eyesore. It's not enough to make me not buy a game I would otherwise get, but enough to make me look for a used copy.

Also, the first one is the hardest. I'm sure once I have one GH box, every one after that wil be easier to get.
 
Tempted to triple dip. :lol

Not in the US but... maybe ebays

should I buy this as my first PS3 game or stick with the planned GOW3?

Since I'm the only active dissenter left, Demon's Souls is an evil game that hates everything good about the human spirit.

You are correct. Go buy a
nother
copy.

The game is fine but beware if you have a low tolerance for repeating sections of games. This game is heavy on repetition of levels, either for building skills or because of cheap deaths.

:lol

How does that claw + sword combo work? Never tried that.


the claw is just for look :D

It works fine in NG, I use it to parry. but in NG+...not so well :lol.

Missing a parry in NG+ means an axe to your skull, and it hurts
 
I just bought this, great deal with my 20.00 bonus credit I had! Though, apparently if you use amazon preorder credits it takes away the option of super saver shipping. Darn you 4.98 shipping!

it's only 20-30 bucks. Considering the amount of butt-whooping you'd get, it's a good deal

There are some things you can do to make it easier right off the bat. But yeah, you'll still need your A game.
 
A request for anyone who got this greatest hits version and would actually like the original case art instead......I'd actually prefer the new GH cover art, so PM me and we could set up a trade that hopefully wouldn't be too much hassle. Thanks!
 
On sale with art book and soundtrack for $23.99 now. If you don't own this game already (or hell, even if you do), buy this.
