Dark Souls set for PC release?

Well, some breaking news today, news that I am hoping to be true.

While nothing has been confirmed yet, it seems very likely a PC port is coming.

Namco Bandai Games & From Software's action RPG title may be getting a PC port very soon. The rumours spread today after an image was spotted in Australia's PC powerplay magazine (below) and the twitter account of Rich Bantegui - Namco Bandai Games' community manager (above).

Fans of the game immediately identified this was
from the difficult title.
The lure of Dark Souls for many gamers is that it is a very hard game, reminiscent of 'old school nintendo' style difficulty, something that many games tend to avoid by providing a multitude of different difficulty settings. The game recieved excellent reviews and is very popular among the console gaming community, which is why I am looking forward to seeing it come to the PC.

Suited for more hardcore players, you will most likely find yourself dying a lot more than winning in this game. something I've been looking for in a game for a while. Whilst I do like to play the easy going games, more often than not I prefer to play my first play through on a difficulty above normal. 

So this is another piece of news I'll be keeping an eye one as it progresses, I really do hope the PC port goes ahead, another Action RPG title is always welcome in my gaming library.

Man, it does look awesome, too.
