sounds good, doesn’t it?
Skeletons with axes? I am SO in for this one.
Castlevania on a 3DS? Hell yeah!!! Although I truly missed the days when Nintendo Power was published by Nintendo of America. Arikawa was a good president, but The Regginator is better!!!!!!
Reggie is what? o.O
obviously… YES!
that guy in the picture is Trevor? he looks a lot like Gabriel, and I hope that they change this costume, it looks horrible.
This. Who the hell fights…..hell, with that excuse of an outfit? You cant even call it armor. Regardless, I still look forward to it.
lol kids raging about this new outfit, so the high heels boots, woman long gloves and the shirts with that long skirt-like its a lot better for fighting? hahaha dammit kids and their Ayami Kojima stupid fanatism…
And there’s more, these clothes are clearly based on japanese culture and folklore, and obviously castlevania characters aren’t japanese, excluding (Aria of Sorrow/Dawn of Sorrow)
FINALLY! I can’t wait for this game!!!!! I’ve played every single Castlevania game at least once =D I’ll get this day one!!!!!!!! Or before xD Can’t wait indeed!
Wait, both games are coming to 3ds, or this is the same game? I’m confused (?)
Same game.
So Trevor is there, so is Possible than Alucard(new version) will be here as the rumors say…thus the new canon is teasing a Link between the two(in the Original Canon pre Igarashi, was hinted that Alucard was the Father of Trevor, Explaining some of the Belmont Powers)
But if this Rumor is TRUE….. OMG THAT MEANS THAT EXIST CHANCE THAT THE STARFOX-METROID THING WILL BE TRUE…
Paul Gale, started the rumour about this and Sony Smash Bros Rip-Off… So i’m starting to think that SF+Metroid rumour will be true as well ._.! Holy Shit!
I have not got this issue yet…
Just what I always wanted, a sequel to the Castlevania Game that took the worst parts of Devil May Cry and God of War and spliced them together into a complete abomination.
Idk about all you guys, but I loved LoS. I thought it was awesome, even if it took a lot of GoW and DMC’s mechanics and ideas. The atmosphere was perfect.
This sounds more like a classic Castlevania than a DS rehash which is SO AWESOME! Totally digging that character design too. Fanart coming soooooon! (by me)
Um its not either of them. From reading the controls, it sounds more like Lord of Shadows, which was a third person action game like God of War.
If its not a 2d scroller its gonna suck trust me.
Can’t wait to get this. Castlevania is a great series and I can’t wait to see what they do on 3DS.
I will pass, I didn’t really like the first Lord of Shadows.
damn, i wanted it to be an RPG style like the games on the DS, i hated LoS
