I don't know what to think of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. I like Castlevania, I like Kojima Productions, and I like action games.
So what's missing? Goblins. Lesser lycanthropes. Giant spiders. Great Wargs... obviously. They're all rendered here for your enjoyment, enemies in the upcoming third-person action game scheduled for release later this year.
Do you think they have that "Castlevania feel"? Are Kojima and developer MercurySteam bringing 2D Castlevania to 3D life, or are they missing the mark? Either way, I can't wait to get my hands on the title, which I have a good feeling will happen at this year's E3.

Caaaaaaautiously OOOOOOOOOOOOptimistic!!!!!!
Either way it looks like it's coming along great so this might be the one that gets me into 3D. :)
Castlevania in 3-D is a sign of the hardcore Apocalypse.
Either way, this is one action-adventure game that I am highly anticipating. I hope the itemization and skill/spell variety remains in-tact, which are the greatest elements of Castlevania games.
Spider and warg look awesome though. O:
Perhaps the same could be said of all happy thoughts...
But it's not a werewolf if he doesn't rip numbers off a clock tower and throw them at you.
