The sequel to the well-liked Demon's Souls.
Just like its predecessor, Dark Souls is known for its excruciating difficulty. However, while Demon's Souls was more linear, Dark Souls has a more open world.
You still have many classes to choose from with a whole bunch of customization and of course no checkpoints.

"Star Wars Battlefront II, at first, seems like a crappy licensed game that Lucasarts rushed out in less than a year in order to make money. This seems even truer when one finds out that its basically Battlefield in space. Why would anybody like this?
The back of the box says it all: Fight more of the greatest Star Wars battles any way you want.
This game is a Star Wars fans dream. One can pick from several planets from all eras of the Star Wars universe, play as the Clones, Droids, Rebels, or Empire, and play in Conquest (capture command posts while defending your own) 1 and 2 flag CTF (either take the neutral flag to the enemys base, or capture the enemys flag while defending yours), or just mess around in Hero Assault, where one can play as all the heroes and villains in the game. If one prefers the air, one can play on the several space maps and attempt to destroy the enemy fleet while protecting ones own. One can even land in the enemy ship!
In terms of who you can play as, there is the soldier class, armed with a rifle and grenades, a rocket soldier armed with a rocket launcher, mines, and only two grenades compared to the riflemans four, a sniper that also has two grenades, as well as an auto turret that can be placed to protect the sniper, and the engineer. The engineer is considered to be the best class due to having a shotgun thats powerful at close range, five health & ammo dispensers to heal and reload others and themselves, a fusion cutter that can repair things, and detpacks. Detpacks are like remote c4 charges, except that they can be thrown far due to the games physics, resulting in easy kills if used properly. Still, the classes arent too unbalanced. Lastly, each side gets two special classes. The first is a commander class that can give buffs to other units and fight, and another unit that is completely unique to a side. Examples include the jet trooper for clones and the droideka (the ball-roller droid from ep 1) for droids.
The single player modes arent bad, and include a campaign (which has actual objectives, unlike the first games), galactic conquest (capture all the planets in the galaxy), and instant action (play a regular game), but the bulk of the games fun comes from the multiplayer. The battles in Battlefront II are hectic and large, resulting in great fun. In Mos Eisley Assault, players can also just mess around and try to have jedi duels. My clan specialized in this mode. Speaking of clans, one could join a clan (there was no clan making system though) and either try to become a warlord by beating everyone one sees in disband wars, or just play for fun and not have to worry about having to use a stupid game to try to find some way to have power over others, since one would otherwise have none in real life because one is a loser who has no life.
