The title has much mystique. The article is about the porting of Dark Souls to PC.
The port is not the point of the article. The fact that two fans (not developers of the game) used their knowledge to have it play at a higher resolution with other adjustable effects and break the framerate cap. The making it 'whole' speaks to PC gamers and what they expect out of games these days. To have a PC game locked at 720p @ 30fps is unacceptable to most PC gamers.
