For the past several weeks I’ve had more than my share of problems with my capture device b being able to stream properly. I’ve finally. with the help of some other fine folks having the same problems over at Twitch, have fixed it. So we’ll be streaming Dark Souls and also Ellis is planning on streaming tons of horror games (Dead Space 1 & 2, Call of Cthulhu, the Penumbra Series, Silent Hill, you get the idea) just in time for Halloween. So check the channel. No hard schedule as of yet but I’m sure you’ll catch me dying again and again in Dark Souls later today.
Expect Ellis’s Stream of Horror to begin tonight. I’ll then post up some gameplay of said scary pants gaming along with Dark Souls over on Galaxy TV.
FROM SOFTWARE has always been known for developing some interesting titles; titles that always had fantastic ideas but at times not the greatest follow-through. It’s almost a bit of a wonder that FROM SOFTWARE hit it out of the park this generation with the cult hit Demon’s Souls on the PS3. A title that at first seemed to pass by everyone’s radar, well everyone but the most devoted of gamers looking for a Japanese fix.
In case you forgot, the ball-crunching Dark Souls is now in stores. If you were wise enough to pre-order or are lucky dog you could get your hands on the Collector’s Edition which includes a soundtrack, tin case, art book mini-guide.
