I know why Kaz loved Far Cry 3. What other game has you commit genocide on dark people? I mean, holy shit, does it get any better when you chain kill three Afro-carribe thugs wandering down the road?

Right now I'm revisiting Dark Souls on the 360 because I got it dirt cheap.

Would like a review on this. It was critically acclaimed but the difficulty is supposed to be the equivalent of punching yourself in the face.

It is extremely difficult. But, dying never feels cheap. A lot of games that are supposed to be difficult get that way by just giving the enemies a ton of hit points. Not so much here. The mechanics are usually very clear, so you can almost always figure out why you died. You will die, a lot, but you'll also improve quickly.

It's an excellent game. It can be very frustrating at times but I never felt like saying "fuck this."

I have to turn it off every so often. It's very meticulous and it rewards paying attention to detail
