I don't give a damn about the review. The game has been solid so far in the walkthroughs. I'm buying it today and I don't know about other reviews but for castlevania, it's all about gametrailers for me. They've given honest reviews for the series so far.

No money for IGN.


But I can accept that the LoS formula just don't translate well into 2D

I don't care what IGN says, as soon as I'm out of work I'm picking it up and I can't wait. I'm sure I'll love it
What a horrible night to have a curse!

I thought of a new tagline for this game

For SotN it was "Evil has an address"
CV64-"Killer outfit. Too bad the night life sucks."
LoS-"Dark times need a dark hero"
MoF-"HEADS WILL ROLL"

Wow, IGN was scathing. I'll poke around and see what my other go-to review websites say. I'm actually kind of shocked. I expected a 7/10 game at worst.

It is. The other 30 reviews are positive.

After playing the demo, I'm not impressed. It's just a demo though, so I'm still going to give it a shot; I mean, I've already got it reserved at the local game store. Hopefully things pick up after where the demo left off.

So, uh...about that exclusivity deal, are there any feasible ways for MS to get around it for MoF HD? If possible I'd rather have the whole trilogy on the PC where I'm more comfortable.
It is precisely because it never cared, that people do care.  It's something which it's lacking, because that which it has, it has lackluster of.

You are now reading this in Robert Belgrade's voice.

Then Lords of Shadow 2 just takes a big, semi-solid, smelly, pea-green dump all over everything.

Well if you don't mind waiting over 2 years, and waiting more hoping a HD version is made then sure.

I still think everyone overreacted with the HD version thing.  I don't think it's happening.

I guess seeing MoF released on HD consoles/PC is like seeing Adventure ReBirth being ported to PS3/360... Nintendo got their balls in a vice

More concise way to say it is asking Nintendo to put Zelda on a Sony or Microsoft Console.

I thought, that from a story perspective, we always had a general idea; of how "The Family Feud" began via "Mirror of Fate/Lord of Shadows 2" Trailers.

Being 30 minutes, into the game myself I'm enjoying it quite well. I like the direction, the story is going in from what I've scene so far; in the way of cutscenes/scrolls.
