Demon's Souls Cheats and Tips: Find Out What You Need To Know to Have a Better Gaming Experience

Helpful Cheats
Here are some great little Demon’s Souls cheats to start you off with and get you finding some great stuff in the game:
- Change the date on your PS3 console to October 31st. This will cause the enemies to be more challenging, but you will score higher points and receive better rewards for defeating them.
- To guarantee that you get the key to the mausoleum, kill Ostrava the first time you see him instead of trying to save his life (which would be 3 times). Ostrava is located in the Boletarian Palace.
- If your character dies, you can still save the souls you earned. When you die, immediately press the PS button (before it goes to auto save mode). Reload the game. You should be close to the location where you died and will have all the souls you accumulated.
A Safe Way to Kill the Red Dragon
First get a crossbow and 100 bolts. Position yourself at the top of the first tower on the bridge and kill the two archers. Nearby are three windows. Move in front of the one on the right. From here, every time the dragon swoops down to burn the bridge, you can lock on to him and attack him temporarily. This may take some time, but when you defeat him you will earn his lead soul and about 8,000 additional souls.
