Well this excited me since I have been a Castlevania fan since the original on NES/Famicom. Gives me just another reason to acquire a PS3 my main reason is of course God of War III. Here is are some trailers. From other sources I have read its taking a change to the regular Castlevaina we have seen on PS2 in gameplay and of course a new storyline. I for one am excited about it. [Edit] Thanks Reider I was over excited and I over looked it was also going to be on 360 as well.
Re: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow PS3 Its for 360 too so win-win. I hope this one's even better than Curse of Darkness.
WISE FROM YO GWAVE! It's drawing near, more trailers have appeared since this posting its really looking good. I was starting to wonder if it was ever going to surface since I made this original post and its looking like the release date is heading towards the end of October early November (I prefer october so it would be around Halloween) I hope this turns out to be as popular as SOTN was for PSX not that either has anything in common I am talking about it becoming a damn good game as SOTN is.
http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/111/1116154p1.html Guy played it for 8 hours and only made it up to Chapter 3 out of 12 chapters. Some of the boss fights are also being compared to Shadow of the Colossus which while I've never personally played, I've never heard anything really negative about. EDIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrIgwciSRlM I'm going to put some money aside for this one.
Awesome! Also looks like its going to release early October now as well. Now I have played Shadow of Colossus and if the boss battles compare to that it should be interesting, but probably won't be as much on a 2nd run though say if there is a pattern or something, 8 hours just to get though 3 levels...I'm in! (was anyway )
Apparently the big thing is that all places can be completed up to 110% and there's multiple difficulties so I imagine it should keep me busy for some time. 10/5/2010 in the US for anyone curious.
In that case, we're the only ones with good taste in games. It's tough, but we have a duty to like good stuff.
http://www.joystiq.com/2010/08/26/how-disc-swapping-works-in-castlevania-lords-of-shadow-for-xbox/ I know this sort of thing isn't all that big a deal, but I do confess to really liking the idea here simply due to the fact that Star Ocean was actually annoying with it. This is only useful info for somebody getting the 360 version though.
