The Castlevania Thread

8-Way should make its way back in. Simon was killing them boys with that one. Man I’m upset that I can’t find my copy of Circle of the Moon because I never got a chance to beat it. You guys in here make me want to play it.

I think as a flashy castlevania game, and music wise: SOTN is my favorite one.

Now if we are talking substance: I think POR did for me. It had so many new elements, and the tag team thing was just a good ass idea.

I dont really have an opinion of a very hard castlevania game. If anyone has some suggestions…please give me your opinion on what is the most difficult castlevania game besides COTM. Because Ill be working on that soon enough, and I hope LoS turns out good.

I got the demo. It’s from E3. Everything about it is awesome. All my previous doubts are all gone.

dang you well its only 2 weeks away and come out on my bday

I hope that it’s not PSN only demo. I know it is so far but Konami would be shaq-fuing stupid to not let xbox players get a hold of this.

But I’m glad you feel the way you do about the demo.

Anybody know how to new Castlevania is setup? Is it split into stages or one big world like the ‘metroidvanias’?

Whats in the limited edition of the new CV?

FFFFUUUUUU

Would the North American version of LoS have the option to choose JP VA?

Phew.

I’m not sure why anyone would want to listen to a language that they don’t understand OVER PATRICK STEWART. Silliness.

Why the fuck would you want to do that?

As an option? What is the problem with that?

to be fair, the japanese voice cast is pretty top-tier.

but come on… its sir patrick stewart.

Or one could play the game more than once and pick different VA for each run… many games carries both VA already (SF, BB, RoF to list a few)

They even have JP VA in Harmony of despair. by holding one of the triggers on the controller when selecting characters.

Yeah those are fighting games though. I’m sure that they have less voice acting than an epic like Kojima’s Castlevania.

Exactly. SIR Patrick Stewart.

the demo is for NON-U.S. ps plus user only. damn.

interview with C:LOS head dev David Cox

nice insightful read about making C:LOS. a huge departure from the interview with the head DmC developer - Cox seems to actually respect the property.

gabriel was almost king leonidas hahaha.

Honestly the english voice cast is pretty great right now, if you just automatically default flip the jap switch-- well, you’re probably a weeaboo.
