Any One a Gamer?

So i just got demon's souls claimed to be the hardest game in 15 years? Does any one else have it? What are your thoughts so far?

Combat-wise, it's not all that hard. What makes it "difficult" is the fact that there are no checkpoints within a level. If you die, that's it...you go all the way back to the beginning....including losing everything you collected along the way. You then have work your way all the way back to where you were to reach your "bloodspot" (where you were last killed) to retrieve the demon souls (game currency) you previously collected. It does make you be a LOT more careful as to how you fight.
The only checkpoint that does occur is when you get to the bad guy of the level....when you die fighting him, you get to go directly back.

Hardest game I've ever played is Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines, a strategy game for the PC from years ago. Amazing, even though I couldn't get more than half way through.

That would really quickly make me stop playing a game. I don't mind hard, but I don't want to replay a whole level for dying in one spot.

It does make it a b!tch to play. If only they had an up/up/down/down/left/right/left/right/B/A.....wow, can't believe I still remember that one...
