    Thought it was multiformat?

    I'm a bit wary of this game. Firstly it's not a castlevania game. It was originally a Konami funded game called lord of shadows being made in Spain but when Konami turned down IGA's request for a bigger budget for a next gen Castlevania, they rebranded this game. Also make no mistake that this game has absolutely nothing to do with Kojima or Kojima productions. It's like those 'presented by Quentin Tarantino' films. Basically Kojima said yeah it's fine to slap my name on the game.

    Still I think it could be a good game.

    The fighting looks a bit like god of war. Nice cast of voice actors in there too.

    Anyway, uncharted 2 is the game thats worth buying a PS3 for. :cool:

    This.

    Unless something changes, this doesn't feel like a castlevania game.

    Is it like a next gen tomb raider? How does it compare to metal gear or batman drak arkum or any other highly rated game on the ps3?

    Oh hey, God of War with hair.

    ...wake me when they make a Castelvania game for the Wii with waggle-controls.

    A remake of FFVII would be the only thing that could cause me to go out and buy another console right now.

    If its as Rhyme said "God of War with hair" and as linear as GoW than a miss unless the gameplay is VERY impressive.

    If its a GOOD 3D Castlevania game, with tons of exploration and secrets areas to uncover than will give it a spin.

    We know not all these words go together. To be honest, i'd love a HD 2D castlevania game. Imagine a game like SOTN in HD and using the capacity of the hard drives for better voice, bigger level design and HD textures.

    Lament of Innocence was very good just a bit repetitive.

    I still think it could be a very good game, it will just be hard to accept it as a castlevania game after all the excellent games IGA's team have made. That doesn't include curse of darkness by the way :)
