Just like Crooked Bee, I was mesmerized by From Software games for the PSX. They were crude, slow as molasses, controls were fucked, but I just loved their atmosphere (played the two western King's Field and that weird game which had ghosts on a boat at one point, still need to play "Shadow tower").
I never had a console after the PSX but I'd really like to know from the people who played them if the ones on PS2 or PS3 are as atmospheric and filled with dread as the ones on PSX?
I know that "Dark Souls" and "Demon Souls" are supposed to be astounding games compared to recent console shit. What interests me more is to know if they're as atmospheric and weird as those which were their blueprints on the PSX or if they went from "Daggerfall" to "Oblivion": going through a kind of action-packed kiddie-grimdark disneyification (although I'm pretty sure that From Software couldn't possibly have declined as much as Bethesda, at least not in such large proportions).
