I'd rather hear about the teased C:LOS sequel, myself. I'd like for Dracula/The Dragon to return.
I had so much fun with the C:LoS.

Agreed. Lords of Shadow was cool, but I'm always up for a handheld, co op Castlevania.

original game was so great.... and that ending...
Hopefully this game will
build upon the first and take out some of the 'padding' that plagued the first.

I just want Dracula X Chronicles on the UK PSN.
I rented LoS and decided I'd buy it and still haven't got to it.
I'll have to try soon what I played was excellent.

LoS sequel needs to happen immediately. I own/have played every single CV and LoS is hands down one of my favorite CV's of all time. I'd be happy with a 3DS CV, but the portable ones were starting to feel stale.
wait a second, Konami is doing marketing for one of its ip's? color me shocked!!!
All kidding aside, i want that 3ds castlevania info more as well. All 6 gba/ds castlevania games were amazing

Kojima was slapped on the project to give it credibility, Kojima Production had absolutely no involvement in the development of the game. Some oversight on story, but that's about it.
LoS was an OK GoW clone, but it was not a Castlevania game and most people admit that.

I'm always down for more Castlevania, too, but this ain't Castlevania. It just shares a couple names. Really, wasn't a fan at all, and I'm kinda scared they're abandoning the original series just to make more GoW clones.
I'm so sure this is LoS Sequel!!!
I've been following closely all tweets from members of Mercury Steam and they've been teasing a big reveal for more than a month now.
Please give me three...the first one is so underrated it makes me sick, anyway I tell people like: "hey it has one of the best endings of this consoles generation!" and they say: "seriously?!"....months later: "Dude you where totally right, how come more people don't know about this game?".
Don't get me wrong, I love Koji Igarashi's CVs but we cannot expect to play and enjoy 2D CV games forever. Lords of Shadow showed me that an spectacular 3D CV is indeed possible, just matter of time before they hit the sweet spot.
All in all...give me LoS sequel and and a new 2D game (will get a 3DS just for it, and if Alucard is in it then give me two haha)!

I'm with Darth mantitz. LoS was hated on for having Castevania in its name imo. It was a great game (also imo). Don't get me wrong, ill always prefer 2d castlevanias (especially the metroidvania ones) but nothing wrong with some 3d love either.
People don't worry we will get a IGA Castlevania sooner than you might think.
I'm sure we can spread the love, some might hate LoS just because it has "Castlevania" on it, but please can't we just enjoy both and be happy?

I don't know that Iga is still working on the series, the last game he made was Otamedius Excellent and now he's woorking on a different title called Leedmees for Kinect. However it would be cool to see him go out in a blaze of glory on one last 2D game... (or three).
I enjoyed Lords of Shadow a lot, but it didn't feel like Castlevania. There was far too much medieval influence and not enough Gothic atmosphere. The music was epic but was made for this medieval setting, (not to mention it shared chord structure with Batman Begins). And despite David Cox's most fervent denials, the game really did play like God of War with Prince of Persia platforming and a few Shadow of Colossus battles. The styles didn't mesh as well as they should have nor as often as they should have. Here's to a more Castlevania-like Castlevania!!!

Why are people bitching ? There is a new 3ds metroidvania one coming and also this. It's not like the handheld recycled format and the GOW close can't both exist under the same name. Castlevania is about Belmonts fighting Draculas not a particular game style. Variety is fine and maybe they address your concerns with this new outing.
Lords of Shadow was garbage. It had nothing to do with Castlevania, they just decided to shoe horn in a few Castlevania references and slap the Castlevania name on it. I can't believe how easily fooled some people were, do people really believe Kojima had anything at all to do with the game?
So am I the only person here who doesn't give a single fuck about metroidvanias or the 3D ones? I love those traditional sidescrollers the most
I don't get how people think the story isn't Castlevania. Didn't anyone stay till after the credits?

That bullshit was just slapped on to further trick people into thinking the game was meant to be a Castlevania game from the start.
I however know better because I still remember when Mercury Steam was showing the game off as just Lords of Shadow BEFORE Konami stepped in and picked it up. Going off of their previous track record with mediocre to down right shit games, Konami knew it wouldn't sell. So they had them slap the Castlevania name on it, shoe horn a few references to Castlevania in, and then threw Kojima's name into the mix (he didn't have shit to do with the game). They knew it'd sell based on that alone. It's as much of a Castlevania game as Silent Hill 4: The Room is a Silent Hill, which is to say it only is by name alone.
