shiroikaze Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) My god, I knew the whip was awesome but my god, I want that thing now! Also, besides the Star Trek games, has Patrick Stewart ever lent his voice to any game at all? Edited June 4, 2009 by shiroikaze Quote
Tober Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 My god, I knew the whip was awesome but my god, I want that thing now! Also, besides the Star Trek games, has Patrick Stewart ever lent his voice to any game at all? The X-Men games and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Probably others too, imdb would list them. Quote
Keith Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Looks like Konami wisely decided that the MGS4 eingine is the swetest thing to hit the PS3 since bluray. Good call. Also, gameplay footage looks way better than GoW3. Quote
areaseven Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Also, besides the Star Trek games, has Patrick Stewart ever lent his voice to any game at all? Aside from the games already mentioned, he was featured on some editions of Compton's Encyclopedia CD-ROMs. Quote
wolfx Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Is that Belmont? And damn....it looks kinda like God Of War. Quote
promethuem5 Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Castlevania + GOW + MGS engine? I dunno... the moves looked identical to the combat in God of War... I honestly have so much fun and get so many hours out of the newer sidescrolling Castlevanias that I don't even think I'd want to play it in 3D where I have to sit in front of a TV. Castlevania's always been for me some of the best gaming you could do on a handheld. Heck, the only way I finished SotN was when they put it on the PSP. Quote
Duke Togo Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Updated the trailer, no longer the hand-cam recorded version. Quote
Duke Togo Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Looks like our hero's name is Gabriel. Quote
Garou Kuroryuu Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 DAMN!!! That looks awesome!!! GOW + Castlevania = WIN! O_O Is that really the MGS4 engine? I thought Course of Darkness was pretty decent for a 3D Castlevania... but this one blows it away in so many ways. Definitely a must Quote
shiroikaze Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Is that Belmont? And damn....it looks kinda like God Of War. He has to be a Belmont since he's wielding what I assume to be the Vampire Killer. /accent on The line must be drawn here! I lol'd, +1 to you good sir. Quote
505thAirborne Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 That looks amazing!! And what a cast for Voice actors, Patrick Stewart, Jason Isaacs!! Quote
wolfx Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 He has to be a Belmont since he's wielding what I assume to be the Vampire Killer. I lol'd, +1 to you good sir. Or an offshoot family since there have been non-belmonts who wielded the vamp-killer in some games. I'm not very well versed with the castle vania universe and why the damned castle keeps re-appearing. Quote

Yeah, they tried to tie Castlevania with Bram Stoker's Dracula. Quote
JB0 Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) Or an offshoot family since there have been non-belmonts who wielded the vamp-killer in some games. I'm not very well versed with the castle vania universe and why the damned castle keeps re-appearing.Because the castle isn't really a castle in the strictest sense. It's a mystical WTF that reappears whenever Dracula comes back/is about to come back. It be the Morris family who are related to the Belmont family. Yeah, they tried to tie Castlevania with Bram Stoker's Dracula. Nathan Graves in Circle of the Moon isn't a Belmont or Morris. Yet he gets the Vampire Killer. It's probably safe to assume he's from an offshoot of the Belmont family and has the blood of the Belmonts, though. (I'd actually always assumed John Morris from Bloodlines was a Belmont relative) Edited June 6, 2009 by JB0 Quote

(I'd actually always assumed John Morris from Bloodlines was a Belmont relative) Thanks for pointing that out. I haven't really played some of the older Castlevania games so I really don't know everything. Quote
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 After watching the GoW preview on PSN, then watching the LoS trailer, I couldn't help feeling like I was watching the same thing. That combat cross looks a lot like the Blades of Chaos when it's in action. I'm a huge fan of GoW and Castlevania, so I'll probably end up getting both, however I don't want to go from one game to another that is so close in game play. I don't want to be bored with it from the start. From Wikipedia: "It was originally titled Lords of Shadow with no connection to the Castlevania series." Quote
Duke Togo Posted June 7, 2009 Author Posted June 7, 2009 From Wikipedia: "It was originally titled Lords of Shadow with no connection to the Castlevania series." We don't know that. While very possible, its also possible that Konami wanted to keep the full title under wraps. Quote
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted June 7, 2009 Posted June 7, 2009 This is copied from the source of the wiki statement: Lords of Shadow was actually announced at last year's Games Convention, a title to be developed by Madrid-based Mercury Steam and originally pitched as the foundation of a new "action-adventure IP." Looks like that might have changed, as the game may have been retrofitted to be a new Castlevania game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Quote
Duke Togo Posted June 8, 2009 Author Posted June 8, 2009 Still very possible, but also still an entry on a wiki. Quote
Metal_Massacre_79 Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 No, that one was from the source that the wiki entry came from. Quote
Duke Togo Posted June 9, 2009 Author Posted June 9, 2009 No, that one was from the source that the wiki entry came from. The source being? Quote
Keith Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) The source being? The most reliable source imaginable. Edited June 9, 2009 by Keith Quote
Duke Togo Posted June 9, 2009 Author Posted June 9, 2009 The most reliable source imaginable. Catch ya on the flipside! Quote
