I received my copy from Play-Asia only in couple of days which is great. It is all in English except the manual which is written in Chinese.
The game it self presents a long gameplay which continues even after the ending as a part of the plot. It is true that the gameplay is not easy but once you master the fighting ...[更多...]
特點
In this brutal land, death is inevitable, but not final. Combining the best features of an action game and RPG, you'll slice, smash, shoot, and cast magic against some of the most horrible, vicious enemies ever encountered. Are you strong enough to face up to the impossible and win?
Network features go far beyond any previous RPG, allowing players to leave hints for each other, replay death scenes, cooperatively revive dead players, or invade and wreak havoc in another's game. Not merely an add-on feature, multiplayer options are vast, and uniquely focused on changing and intensifying the single player experience
The open-ended structure of the game means that there is no single path, but rather a wealth of options. Set your own pace and progress as you like. Build exactly the character you want by creating a detailed avatar, nurturing the right stats, and customizing your skills and equipment

Totally Awesome Head about this game from a friend who saw the trailer, being the RPG fan that i am i tried to buy it but as usual our country shafted on releases.
Play Aisa saved the day!
this game is awesome, well worth the $$
its not one of those game u can charge in and expect to live, it takes time and planning.
which is what i have been looking for, the deluxe edition is well worth it, the guide book has been helpful explaining some of the game mechanics.
Awsonely Rewarding Demon's Souls is truly a PS3 must-have. Once you passed your learning curve, which should only taka 1-2 hours, and you have nice control of your character, it's time to fight demon's like you mean it!
Brillian game-play, highly addictive and, if you're any form of RPG fan, then you shouldn't miss this game.
I found Play-Asia's dispatching time upon purchase for the Deluxe Edition was substantialy shorter then the stadard, so I opted for deluxe, and am I glad I did.
The addition of the strategy guide is priceless, coupled with the quick shipping, this purchase is one I'm definately not remorseful about.

Casual gamers need not apply Let me get this out of the way first: this game is HARD. REALLY hard. Mind-numbingly hard. Ninjas-go-to-your-home-and-kill-your-puppy hard.
That said, it's hands down one of the best games I've gotten to play in a while. It's practically flawless, from the sheer feel of it (Dark Ages-style medieval fans will drool ceaselessly over the atmosphere) down to the little details.
First, a little background. There's this kingdom called Boletaria. Its King goes nuts wanting power. So he foolishly awakens a critter known as the Old One (Cthulhu much?) which will swallow all the world if left unchecked. See, this critter eats souls, which are in turn fed to it by its Demons. You, like many before, head to Boletaria in an attempt to slay them (because when they die, the Demon's souls can be harvested for great power). You get your ass kicked and are sent to the Nexus, the center of all this mess, and sent by a woman known only as the Maiden in Black to slay other demons so you can be revived and GTFO. The point of it is, once the Old One runs out of waiters, it can call you to your side so the Maiden can sing it a lullaby (almost literally).
The first point for the game's atmosphere: only the bosses get soundtracks. For the entire game, each and every world has no BGM whatsoever - the only background sound you get to hear are the moans and groans of your many, many, many enemies. This makes the BGM for each boss that much more impacting. They're beautifully orchestrated too - every boss fight feels like an epic battle, some with a more sneaky feel like the Fool's Idol, and others with grand, climactic holy-crap-that's-the-last-boss effects like the False King.
You have a myriad ways to dispatch your enemies, but you require fair amounts of skill in order to do so. While you CAN wield a weapon two-handed for more damage, you'll rarely employ this method, as even the weakest enemy can and WILL give you a run for your money given the chance. Healing items are scarce until you can secure an appropriate supply of souls and a vendor. Though the game has classes, each class only determines your initial attributes, soul level and starting equipment - thus, it's easier to start off with some rather than others. Despite this, all characters can do the same things, but they perform differently in each area depending on how you build them.
Whenever you kill a boss, you are revived and gain his Demon's Soul. Each Demon's Soul will either provide you with a new spell (or several - thus, if you want every spell, you'll have to finish the game multiple times) or a new weapon (once you're able to upgrade better weapons by giving a certain NPC a specific Demon's Soul). When you're alive, you enjoy full HP - but you also draw more attention to yourself. The opposite is true in Soul Form (you enjoy only half your normal HP, barring use of a certain equipment, but you're sneakier). Be wary of dying in body form - whenever you do this, the world you're in actually gets tougher, though the rewards do become better as well.
If you're a hardcore gamer and have been looking for an old-school hard game, buy this now. By the time you're done, you'll be in therapy asking why the game developers make their games so easy these days.
Yeah, this game will chew you up and spit you out, without blinking.
A must have Demons Soul's is awesome in every way. One of the best RPGs I played.
The graphics are really good, but actually you won't even notice that all the time. The game is so imersive that you'll play for hours without knowing, even when you die (this will happen A LOT, seriously).
The history is not so great, but thats not really a problem for me in this case. The rest of the game pay off.
Even if you are not a fan of RPGs you should check Demons Soul's. Just be prepared because its not an easy game. You'll get used to the deaths eventually.
Good, game, but a little overhyped. After reading a lot of froth on this game I picked it up expecting it to be better than the second coming. As it is, it's a decently fun game, hard and unforgiving which is okay, but I found the controls to not be as tight as I was expecting.
It *is* a good game, but I think people get a little wrapped up in telling each other how great it is, and expectations are then too high.
