lol. it gets good reviews cause it's a hardass game. And also the gameplay, which is a reason why it's so hard, since you don't run around mashing onek button to attack without negative consequences. Dark Souls makes you think more and be cautious. Most games you can die and restart from a check point or sometimes even at the same spot you died, but not this game. This game teaches you a lesson by making you repeat hte WHOLE level over and over again. Enemies are relentless in their attacks, they want you dead and you can sense it. I think that is why it gets good reviews.
I have yet own a copy of the game, but I played at a friends hosue on his 360 and it plays almost the same as Demon's Souls.
