I heard it had hunted of co-op in it. DS with a friend sounds fantastic enough, I can't wait to see what they may impliment
Project Dark is a ridiculous name, even if it is a working title. But then again, so is Demon's Souls. Fingers crossed for the ability to party up with a friend.
Actually other sites are reporting it is exclusive to PS3 (don't have a freak out Soffik, read the rest) in Japan. So it's a pretty easy mix up.
There you go Sofikk. The litterbox might just get a cool game in 2011.

I am so terribly excited about this. Demon's Souls is my favorite game of 2009, hell, it may be my favorite game of this generation
More dark fantasy from the team that brought it? Tell me when can I preorder?

This oughta be great. I love Demon's Souls and I've been hoping to see something else from those guys. Can't wait!

Boom. Brofist explosion. Little particles sprinkle to the ground.....
I ain't got nothing against Soffik really...he just so crazy sometimes.

I hope it's just a repackaged DS2, the only difference being the name, because of some gotcha in their agreement with Sony. Well, truth be told I'd rather it was single platform and a straight sequel, but I'll settle for the above.
I am only excited because they are mentioning Demon's souls so much. Until I see game play for this new title (and if it pleases me) then I will get hyped. For now... I would have been more than happy if they would release a Demons souls 2, or DLC to open the fifth world atleast. Thats a DLC I would easily pay $14.99 - $19.99 for.
Studio Japan aren't involved with the development this time, so I'm very cautious of this as From software make a lot of mediocre games.
On the bright side, Demon's Souls and 3d dot game heroes were two of the best games I've played in the last year so here's hoping this'll be good too.
"Studio Japan aren't involved with the development this time, so I'm very cautious of this as From software make a lot of mediocre games."
Yeah well.. Studio Japan was involved in White Knight Chronicles and look how mediocre that is.

I can't see how the 360 audience would appreciate this game, unlike the Playstation 3 owners. I think its a bad mistake to release it on the 360
Also, Anyone can enjoy a good game. I don't see a reason for PS3 exclusivity. Hopefully it will have the similar online that Demon's Souls had.
and suddendly, everyone just forgot that From software are the makers of Armored Core... You are fucking amazing demonīs souls!
No Demon's Souls, fuck your shit small dicked asian bastards. Shit cunt.
Seriously, teasing a Demon's Souls sequel two times in a row is just too much.

Naim Master, less of the racism please!
We all want DS2... Doesn't mean it calls for that kinda talk.

As a 360 owner and a college graduate, I take offense at being said I'm too stupid to enjoy a game simply because of my system of choice. Crawl into a hole and die, please.
Oh and hey, I own a PS3 too, so I get to play the game anyway! I'll try to "appreciate" this game, despite my 360 owning handicap.
If it's half as good as Demon Souls was, I'll be all over this like a fat kid on Krispy Kreme.

I'm not and didn't call you stupid at all. I'm just saying that the main audience of the 360 are primarily into shooters and not excellent RPGs like Demon Souls. That's why i feel porting Project Dark on the 360 will be waste as the 360 gamers are not big fans.

Romo: Sorry but...It's coming to PS3 as well right? So whats the problem. I don't think that X360 owners are silly Halo only players, that pretty biased statement : D I have both consoles and since I bought PS3 I don't feel like me IQ was grow since that moment..sorry
I don't really care what they call it... if it's not Demon's Souls 2 that's fine. Actually it's probably better if they make an original IP based on the ideas from the first one, gives them more freedom.
I think it's cool that 360 owners get a chance to play something that might be like demons souls. Back when it came out, so many 360 owners criticized it for sounding like it was too difficult, and citing how it wasn't enough to buy a ps3.
Maybe they'll see it is enough to buy a ps3 and they can be cool like me an own all consoles.

I am vibrating with excitement. Or possibly with low blood sugar. The drooling I can't really explain, but it feels right.
I find the guys defending the 360's audience silly.
Guys, whether you like it or not, the majority of the audience for the 360 are in shooters. Doesn't mean that they would appreciate Demon's Souls, I don't understand where THAT'S coming from, but shooters are the big sellers with that particular system.

I still haven't played Demon Souls, because nobody has given me any good reason to even rent it besides "It's a challenge" or "It's hard."
Literally, out of the entire PlayStation 3 community in my city, of the people that have bought and played Demon Souls, when I ask them why they think it's a good game, I get the response "Uhh, it's hard! lol"
So if this turns out It's Hard 2.0, as described by the fans, fuck this mess.
Also, I'm pretty sure sales for FFXIII broke a million on the 360, so the audience for RPGs is there.

Your "Sony only" comments were on the verge of adorable at first, but you've quickly regressed into idiotic stereotyping, mindless blathering and predictable trolling. And before you respond with your typical, "we are all gamers here" comment, know this: we are not "all gamers" here so long as you are busy taking up space. We are a bunch of gamers and an annoying troll who, admittedly, used to be pretty cute.
To put it more simply: I've grown tired of you.

Ok, it's also a really beautiful game with a really interesting setting and level designs. It has some of the most epic and memorable boss battles I've played since Shadow of the Colossus. Each of the 5 zones in the game have their own unique atmosphere, and convey it very well, from the oppressive darkness in the Tower of Latria to the grand vistas of the Boletarian Palace.
There's a great risk/reward system in place that's reminiscent of classic rogue-like games. If you die, you'll lose all the souls (Experience/Currency) you're carrying, but if you can reach where you died, you can pick them all back up again. Dying again, however, will make your old death spot disappear. Through this, it promotes cautious play, and when you start to get overconfident and reckless, you'll likely be quickly struck down. Even so, at almost all times when you die, it will be clearly your own fault, and you'll have to learn from your mistakes in order to make progress. Each enemy has its own patterns, and learning how to deal with them in various situations will be the key to progress. Finally clearing a tough section gives a sense of satisfaction that very few games provide nowadays.
To top it all off, the game offers great variety in character and weapon customization and replay value. You can build up your stats in any way you want depending on the equipment and spells you wish to use, and after you finish, you'll probably want to play again with a different set up. Or you can go into New Game + where the game asks you to take all you learned about in your first game and kick it up a notch with dramatically increased enemy difficulty where even a single mistake could be life or death.
So yes, it is a difficult game, but it's also an action rpg experience unlike any other, and the reasons for its difficulty, rather than the difficulty itself are what make people love the game so much.

Shooters are big sellers on ALL systems. Piss off fanboys. The more people that buy From Software's (good) games, the better.
Man, Demon's Souls was awesome, I hope this game is connected to it in some way. My PS3 needs more Demon's Soulsy type stuff in it.
a) I pray From Software can make a great game without SCEJ help
b) Hope to see new innovation,
Still very much psyched, god knows how many hours were put into Demon's Souls

@EToster:
You are the first person to put more than a sentence in their explanation of Demon Souls. I now declare you The (only) Sony Fan With A Brain.
I'm not completely sold on the experience (it doesn't look particularly interesting to me from gameplay videos), but at least I've received an actual opinion on the goddamn thing.
