"Worth your time"
The game offers you countless hours or challenging gameplay. As you progress through the game you encounter many different enimies making for a game less boring. However, you will die and die again. So if you like to test your gaming skills not to mention your patience then this is the game for you.
"I Love to Hate this games"
So punishing yet so rewarding… Each failure bringing me closer to the satisfaction of success
"Hard as a truck"
This game is tuff. I would recommend it if you feel games are too easy these days. Like a scorned lover you will keep coming back for more, only to have your ass handed to you on a plate. Highly recommended if you are into that sort of thing, or have a below average level of self respect.
"Hard is the understatement of the century"
I had read and had been warned this game was hard, very hard in fact… I tried it anyway… Saying this game is very hard has to be the understatement of the century… it is utterly ludicrously difficult for average or weekend-warrior type game players… So, unless there is some certain knack to playing this game, you have lightening fast game-reflexes and play other games every non-working hour at a difficulty level of “insane”, this game is most probably going to be an exercise in frustration and futility :(
I couldn't rate the game higher than 1 * because I didn't get to play it! And no one I knew could either so that I might at least witness the glory vicariously.

REVIEWS
“..If you just play games for fun, this isn't for you, and no amount of insistence on my part is going to change that. But if you're interested in the limits of the videogame form – to see just how focused, how pure and how uncompromising in its vision a game can be – Dark Souls is unmissable. If you take the time get into Dark Souls' mindset, to begin to understand the twisted way in which it operates and taste the rewards behind its cruellest challenges, this is one of the most thrilling, most fascinating and most completely absorbing experiences in gaming.” 9/10 – IGN
“…Dark Souls requires intense focus. This isn't a lighthearted romp in a bright and colorful fantasy world; it's a methodical journey into the frightening unknown. And that's what makes it so riveting. Some games try to scare you with bump-in-the-night shocks and far-off howls, but Dark Souls doesn't require such predictable methods of terror. Its terrors emanate from its very core, each step bringing you closer to another inevitable death. How amazing that such a terrible place could be so inviting. The game's world is so memorable, and its action so thrilling, that it might invade your thoughts even when you aren't playing, silently urging you to escape the real world and return to this far more treacherous one. Dark Souls doesn't just surpass other dungeon crawlers; it skewers them with a razor-sharp halberd and leaves behind their soulless corpses.” 9.5/10 – Gamespot
