I've enjoyed every Castlevania game I've played. I look forward to this.

I really hope this will be great. 2-D has been the only way to go with Castlevania for way too long.

Well, I doubt they had as many issues now as they did. Limiting by time and money due to it not being a big game.

Kojima will keep them in line.

This is NOT Castlevania, its a new IP, Castlevania was a real cool plataformer on the NES, this another hack n slash game with impressive graphics and probably an "amazing" storyline

Because it's impossible to imagine a franchise with a new take on genre? Do you realize how much of the platforming element has been lost since Symphony of the Night threw that crap out the window?

Of course i do, thats why i only refer to the NES version, Castlevania pretty much died after Symphony of the Night, but they still kept some of the key elements, but this is going to kill whats left this is what is going to happen

Castlevania Lords of Shadow is going to sell between 1 and 3 millions, its going to make Konami rich, and we are not going to get the old Castlevania ever again

They said that after Metroidvanias became the norm, but Order of Ecclesia re-invigorated that formula by reincorporating platforming elements and more linear level design.

There shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Order of Ecclesia is one of the best games on the DS, beatiful graphics, great gameplay, excellent music (this doesnt change for any of the games) and if you play it on hard, it brings back some of the most skilled parts of the original Castlevania, the Boss fights were genius, and it had 2 characters and several skills, its better than the SoT in my opinion

But.. did you see the Lords of Shadow trailer? it was all about showing the "cool" storyline and how cool the fights were, no plataform scene, no great music, even the art style is gone, its probably going to be more like God of War than Castlevania... (i still want a PS3 for this game lol)

I wonder what the Belmont story will be in this.

I'm glad ps360 is getting this game. But it would be really cool if they gave the Wii a full fledged 2D Castlevania (by the same guy that does the DS games). And imagine they made it like NSMB Wii where it's multiplayer, that would be so awesome.
