Phew! What a week from Konami! We had a lot of stuff shown to us at their Pre-E3 show but to me of course the most important thing was the castlevania info

First and foremost, the first Lords of Shadow is coming to the PC as the ultimate edition with all DLC, in 1080p and 60FPS

Next up, after a long await, we finally got more information regarding Lords of Shadow 2 and a new trailer as well

I have to say, looks absolutely fantastic, strong contender for game of the year, buying this on day one

So then, what do you think?

Mildly interested, I played it on console, it's an honest third person action/platformer that just happen to be called Castlevania for some strange reason. Out of all the console exclusive game in genres is not my favorite nor the main one I would have like to see ported to PC.

Personally I would have preferred HD ports of the 2D Castlevania games.

That would be just amazing..

Lol, you know console gaming is dying when even the Japanese are porting their games to PC to make bank

Don't care much. When I played it on PS3, I honestly felt like I was playing God of War rather than Castlevania.

Well, I finished it on PS3, it's not a "classic" Castlevania at all.
It has a good graphic, but that's all.
It's too simple even on Paladin, it has no plot at all, and God is boring.

Wrong, you were playing Rygar.

=-D

Well, just think a God of War game with too many combo (and you will use only ONE of them), idiot AI and a wooden character...that's Castlevania Lords of Shadow :D

Whatever, I haven't played Rygar. What I do know is that this game barely resembled Castlevania. (Whether it be NES Castlevania, Symphony of the Night, the GBA games or the DS games)

Great news! Now let's get it to GoG: http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/castlevania_lords_of_shadow_ultimate_edition


But even better news would be if Konami makes the next Castlevania a 2D game again!

I would also, but I think 2d Castlevania is pretty much dead now. At a press conference before Harmony of Despair released, Koji Igarashi said something like "Hey guys, Castlevania can't stay 2d forever." After that I never heard much of what else he was doing. :(

I think I was ruined by the original Castlevania; it was so damn hard and everyone seemed good at it but me. That has nothing to do with this thread but I love reminiscing about the past. :D

This is what I was thinking. YES!
