If you haven’t picked up Demon’s Souls for the PlayStation 3, you will be able to get it at a discounted price as the hit RPG is now an official Greatest Hits title. Demon’s Souls was one of our favorite games last year, and we strongly recommend you pick it up, especially since it’s now $29.99 USD.
The game features some of the most relentless and intense fighting segments, with a difficulty level not intended for the weak. Its unique online component allows players to enter other player’s games, leave messages warning of trouble ahead, or replay death scenes.
"Very few games reach the esteemed PlayStation 3 system Greatest Hits status," commented Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Atlus. "Those that do are among the very finest the platform has to offer, combining critical success, tremendous popularity, and exceptional quality. Demon’s Souls represents some of the biggest risks, loftiest goals, and most daring innovations ever embarked upon by a developer. Its arrival into the exclusive ranks of PlayStation 3 Greatest Hits validates its designers’ achievements and helps bring their unique vision to a larger audience. Priced to own at only $29.99, there has never been a better time to find out what everyone’s been talking about."
In Atlus’ press release, the company made it clear that supplies of the original game will not last, so if you want the original packaging, you’ll have to pick it up soon.
