its funny and ironic that i bought a PS3 to play Uncharted 2(the bundle pack!), but in the end Demons Souls gets all the play time... making it the true system seller :)

this only is the worst generation because the past ones were amazingly good. Those past generations have set the bar high.But i´m pretty happy with today games...Mario Galaxy,No More Heroes, Uncharted 2, Left 4 Dead,Gears of War, Earth Defense Force, Bayonetta, Dead Rising, Demons Souls(probally my fave this current gen), the Orange Box and a few others are so good and fresh, as say...Ico or Rez. The indie, low budget scene was never this strong,thanks to digital distribution(Braid,Thrine,Geometry Wars etc...).i thank this gen for keeping the shump alive!has a huge Shump fan i thought last gen was the end of it. But this gen has helped a lot to keep the Shump scene alive. also the platformer or the puzzle game. You also have witnessed a bit of a point n´click renaissance.etc

Nice one Chris!i´m madly in love with this game and although i don´t agree with all your views on it,i think its great that at least there´s someone talking about it,and not just about its difficulty...
Its difficulty can be annoying specially in the first few hours into the game,but once you pass trough the 2 firsts bosses the game starts to show that maybe it likes you, and that maybe you can make part of its world,for a bit longer than you thought.
the first moments with this game reminded me my first time with Ghoul´s and Ghousts. That same kind of tension,fun and mood.
i do think that this game is far from boring. i´m too tense while playing to feel bore.even when i´m repeating the same path for its tenth time.Fallout 3 is a much more boring game than this,i rarely felt the "danger" in that game,and its too damn easy.
anyway one could talk Demons Souls all day.i just wish i new someone personally to do so.
and for bringing Demons Souls to the table i thank you Chris.
stay well

Jesus...Sony militants are so sensible...

Another Contra and another Edge 6.Edge gave also 6 to;Contra Shattered Soldier, Contra Advance and the recent Contra 4.
funny that on the Shadow Complex review, they call Contra Shattered Soldier an "excellent" game...
