Anyone playing Demon Souls that came with the PS+ recently? I died in the introduction and now am at half strengh. I also died in the next level by a overpowered enemy but luckly I managed to get back my souls. but how do i get back to full strengh?
You need to kill a boss IIRC (edit: and there are collectables you can use too). I mostly played as dead though as it keeps the worlds in white tendency which is easier and prevents invasions. There is a ring to give you extra health while dead. Do some reading on the wiki or read the trophy guide. It's quite a complex game.

I'm looking forward to playing Demon Souls but i'm also worried, as i'm someone who quickly turns off a game that is difficult as i would rather be entertained that annoyed (i get easily annoyed by games, just ask my missus)

Having said that, everyone who's played the game says to stick with it and its really satisfying! So i will play and stick with it, but i feel a heart attack coming on, it will be deleted lol

If you run around with your shield up, you'll generally be fine. The amount of times that I could have stayed alive just by entering a room with my shield up already is unbelievable.

I will definately bear that in mind, thanks for the hint!

Had a quick on Demon Souls last night. Seems really good.

The combat is fun and seems to work well. The atmosphere is a really grim, which will probably get tiresome after a while - but it is a nice counter point to Ni No Kuni, which I am also playing at the moment.

Thanks I did manage to come back alive but minutes in someone came in and killed me

Yeah I have got that ring too. I now know how to lvl up as well from reading wiki's. I also know not to attack anyone in the nexus if I wan't to keep their services.

The best thing about demon's souls is I liked it enough to give dark souls a try and that's turned out to be my favourite game of the generation. Fantastic game.

BTW demon's souls has an item duplication glitch you can use if you want a much easier game. Just google for the stockpile thomas glitch if you are interested.

Yeah its pretty sluggish now with the new look. Speed does vary on how busy the store is but even at its best its not what I would describe as quick.

Try the web store

Some amazing hitters on plus. Even I am severely tempted. If it wasnt for this amazing weather keeping me off gaming. I mean you could probably live off plus alone and never buy a game from shops

Oooooh - Xcom. Nice one, I have heard great things on that one. I have the other two. U3 is excellent of course, probably my fav of the series. LBP Karting is good fun, a shame that the online matchmaking etc is a bit clunky

We still don't have June's normal content do we or have I missed it.

Because the US normally are late on announcing their stuff but they've already announced theirs.

Other than the prospect of The Last of Us & Beyond: Two Souls, Plus is the only thing that's keeping me going on the PS3/Vita at the moment. If it wasn't for all the top free titles, I'd probably have quit a long time ago

The June content actually arrive in the last week of May.

I have not used it myself, but you can "buy" content on the web store which is then added to your download list and will be downloaded and installed when the PS3 does its "Plus auto update".

Has anyone else been given another free month from Sony? I got an e-mail off them earlier with a code to add another 30 days to PLUS.


Thanks Sony, sure I'll take it.

I bought a Vita to make use of all these Vita games they keep giving us. It's kinda going to pay for itself now and make Plus more worthwhile for me. I get Uncharted, Metal Gear, and Rayman to play straight away, plus all the others they give.

Is it a regular thing then? Vita games every month?

We normally get two Vita games a month, more often than not its a PSN type game rather than a full retail game but its still a nice stream of games for Vita owners.

Loving the Vita so far. Just dissapointing the amount of decent games available for it.

Luckily I never had a PSP, so I have all those to try out.
