    It would explain the "prepare to die" in the title.

    FPS issue is "solved" on the PC. Should offer a similar experience as to the consoles.

    GFWL, or whatever it’s called these days, is in. That’s the worst of the bad news I think, although I do seem to dislike Microsoft’s sentry system more than most. The official word is that it’s being used to implement the all-important multiplayer, including a PvP system that is new for the Prepare to Die edition. The game will be available direct from Namco’s digital store, through Steam or in an actual box with all sorts of fancy goodies, but wherever you get it, you’ll have to sign in to GFWL.

    Re: Dark Souls: Prepare to Die

    Eurogamer say the resolution is a fixed 1024x720 and framerate is locked to 30fps.

    Absolutely terrible for a PC game.

    I'll wait and see whether the game will be patched or modded before I'll buy. It's a pity as the game is class but the developers are taking the piss with this port.

    I love and hate this game. It is so hard and constant respawning just agitates me, but otherwise it's great!

    You just killed any interest I had in this game. I can deal with the low resolution but not 30 FPS. Thanks for the heads up.

    The words JRPG and GFWL killed it for me months ago.

    It's a good thing I wasn't looking forward to this game, so I can enjoy being right.
