This game has a lot to offer and it's replay value is very high. The game is very fun and i recommend it to any ADULT gamer that enjoys a really great story line and mindless killing with a fun twist.(I say adult gamers because of the language and even se xual content.

The control are very good and well thought out; The story line is very involving and draws you in and before you know it you have played 5 hours and not realize you had been playing so long.

Absolutely NONE

Excellent game! Every bit as challenging and fun as the first. The "black armor" edition didn't really add much to the experience, just a sort of random assortment of free starting gear. It did come with the game soundtrack CD though, which was nice.

Halfway into the first Dark Souls, I quit. I threw my controller across the room and it shattered to pieces. The infamous Ornstein & Smough boss fight proved the tipping point for my tolerance. About three months later, I tried again.

As the player base over the past decade has widened considerably, difficulty has shrunk, perhaps with the notion to not alienate any potential fans. More players equates to more buyers, after all. Yet in recent years there's been a revival of those games that skew difficulty upwards.

Dark Souls 2 is a landmark action RPG that is unforgettable for so many reasons, not least its immensely deep challenge framed within a sprawling, beautiful world.

Despite the despair there's a warm community experience; A fantastically designed; unforgettable world; Resolves design flaws of its predecessor; Combat is clear; fair and varied; Mercilessly difficult

Dark Souls II drops you into a world, after a little bit of set up and then lets you loose. There is a point to the game, there is an end game, but there is no real guidance of how to get there. This isn't a linear story driven experience, there aren't any real corridor mechanics, nothing like that.

I am well aware that I am writing a review which is contrary to popular consensus. However, like Mugatu and his understanding that Zoolander's Blue Steel pose is the same expression as all his others, I appear to be highlighting something that other people can see, but seem resistant to acknowledge.

Too hard for my liking but visually impressive

best game since assassins creed! absolutely awesome, one great adventure!!!

Tough but it's meant to be and that's what makes it a great game. The environments are fantastic and errie. Great series!
