@PCGamer The Surge will get a demo next week.

The future-apocalypse action-RPG The Surge is a flawed but interesting game: "Dark Souls in a junkyard," as we called it in our review, although lacking in some of the touches and polish that make Dark Souls stand out. A solid 60/100 review score is a tough place for a game to be, especially one that costs $50. It's too good to easily ignore, but a hard buy at the price without trying it first. So Deck13 and Focus Home Interactive have come up with a plan. A demo!

Let me guess… it was too awesome to handle? :greengrin:
Nah it's just another Dark Souls-like Clone.:p

So basically if you want a game that focuses on mostly combat, and nothing else well you might enjoy playing it. The camera and controls also take a while to get used to.

I enjoyed Lords of the Fallen so I will at least give the demo a try. LOTF was pretty much as Couchpotato described The Surge, but I still ended up having fun with it. It was definitely a lot more forgiving than Dark Souls and about 3/4 though the game you got too powerful and could even take out the bosses in a half dozen hits.
