This game teaches you a lesson by making you repeat hte WHOLE level over and over again. Enemies are relentless in their attacks, they want you dead and you can sense it. I think that is why it gets good reviews.
I have yet own a copy of the game, but I played at a friends hosue on his 360 and it plays almost the same as Demon's Souls.

I don't see the appeal, frankly. It made the experience feel incredibly dull and monotonous. Keep killing the same weaker creatures repeatedly until you've levelled up enough to be able to kill the same stronger creatures repeatedly until you've levelled up enough to be able to kill the even stronger creatures etc, ad nauseam, to progress. Plus you need to kill legions of creatures to buy weapons, armour, items etc.
The fact I found the controls to be clunky, the camera angles poor and the graphics resembling Resident Evil 4's, made me seriously think it has to be one of the most overrated games of all time. It's laughable it's main selling point is you'll die a lot because it's hard. Yeah, like that doesn't happen in other games. Thank God
Batman: Arkham City and
Skyrim are out soon.
